Hair is 100% genetic, products ain’t going to do shit about that. It’s all just a scam targeted at insecure men who want to achieve unrealistic body standards pushed by society. Just own the bald, or don’t, do what you want to do and fuck society.
I mean, yes, hair is genetic… but genetics also include epigenetics.
If you take two identical twins, both prone to alopecia, give one of them 45 years of nothing but unending stress, and the other a calm and relaxing life, I’m pretty confident your stressed out twin is gonna be more bald more quickly than the other.
But, to go back to general agreement: Yeah basically every common hairloss prevention whatever is a almost entirely a scam.
We’re talking like… twice daily usage for months results in… 15 to 8 new hairs per sq centimeter, for rogaine/minoxidil.
Sure, technically, it does work… but just barely, and you’d have to keep using it forever, and even if you did, if you’re prone to hairloss, you’ll hit a follicle loss rate that exceeds the regrowth rate at some point.
Hell yeah. I even bought one of these.*
There’s an old saying: “God only made so many perfect heads. The rest he covered with hair.”

Ayo I see you one down voter, just know you outed yourself as the top image.
But honestly bro same just accept it and shave. Join us in bald-hood and cap wearing. It’s not so bad. (This is satire, I don’t care if youre bald or not)
None of those top things will have any impact on androgenic alopecia except the lotion/shampoo, depending on the ingredients. Minoxidil+finasteride really does work, some folks get better results faster than others but consistent application will get you results inevitably. Any other drugs/chemicals claiming to prevent or reverse hair loss are at best unproven and are probably just a scam. Hair plugs are also a much better option than they used to be, a bit more of a pain in the ass on the front end but once it’s done you never have to worry about going bald again for the rest of your life.
surfactants are bad for yo’ scalp
but then again so is testosterone

George Carlin take on handwashing.
You know what? Just use water. But maybe use some sodium first to get the chemics out of your hair.
