Our hair stylists have also recommended a few. We are all a part of the hair loss scam. There are many people searching for hair loss treatment online on daily basis. Therefore, the market is ripe for hair loss scams. They start with giving you reasons that are causing hair loss and advertise their product as a cure for it. They want your money. They want you to trust them and buy their product. Their marketing strategy will catch your attention. But a smart customer will not fall for it. Setting your expectations correctly will help you to analyze the results. It is obvious that any treatment will not completely result in reversal of hair loss. If they have a number on their website, call them and ask for product test information. Most of the scam websites will refuse and even if they provide you with the details, verify with any reference to medical journal articles on the internet. Genuine medical hair loss treatment will be costly and can be provided by licensed medical professionals only.
