Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 чер 2024
- Fighting hair loss? Your newsfeed is probably overwhelming you with the latest cure, breakthrough, or product disrupting the hair growth industry.
In this video, we'll separate fact from fiction, reveal what does (and doesn't) regrow hair, and strategies to fix hair loss from the comfort of your own home. We'll accomplish this by following a step-by-step framework: assess, act, and adjust your plan based on data.
Assess
- Understand the different hair loss types (androgenic alopecia, telogen effluvium, scarring alopecia, etc.)
- How to get a hair loss diagnosis (and dominate your dermatology appointment)
- How to perform a quick at-home test to assess your hair loss
- What are the different factors that cause hair loss, and how to rank them
- Analyze treatment targets based on three key metrics: regrowth potential, evidence quality, and long-term viability
Act
- FDA-approved treatments (Finasteride and Minoxidil)
- Natural interventions (Microneedling, Topical & Oral Saw Palmetto, Topical Melatonin, Topical Stemoxydine, Topical Redensyl, Capixyl, and Procapil, Topical Caffeine, Topical Adenosine, Topical Rosemary Oil, Topical & Oral L-Carnitine)
Adjust
- Double down on 5-alpha reductase inhibition (Oral & Topical Dutasteride)
- Antagonize androgen receptors (Fluridil, CB-03-01, Spironolactone)
- Resolve Scalp Inflammation (Ketoconazole)
We hope this video helps you make more informed choices, prioritize treatments that work, and get the best results possible.

Thanks a lot ❤
Hey brother can you see this, important long term side effects of finastraid www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7308241/#:~:text=This%20treatment%20may%20result%20in,dysfunction%2C%20among%20other%20metabolic%20dysfunctions.
I do appreciate your work but I wish there was some better options than finasteride and dutasteride... because they seem to be the only ones that work
have you looked into cistanche tubulosa and Laminaria japonica ( kombu / japanese kelp ) ? I have the cistanche.. i just don't know which product is right when it comes to buying the second one..
I having serious hair loss and later suffering from inflammation which it further causes uncontrollable hair loss
Could you please help me on it
I thought of using green tea and rosemary oil.
Can I know ur opinion on it?
answers all the bald head community questions in one simple vid, what a legend ❤
Hands down best hair loss videos on UA-cam
bro become a doctor just to reverse his hair loss 😂😂
Υou were the first to put the idea of scalp massage in my mind. Today, 12 months later, I got all my hair back (everyone asks me how I did it), look better than I did in my 30s and i am 40. Thank you so much Rob
Wow! That's an incredible response. Congrats!
What is your method and how many times per day? Thank you
We need evidence, before and after photos, do you have a reddit post/topic on tressless that you can link?
How frequently did you do the massages over those 12 months, and was the hair loss in the crown region?
@@tropes_it's a lie ! Lol
best video ever for hair loss....1000x better that the docs selling prp/transplant as the last resort...very underrated video deserves 1m views atleast.
I'm still very early in my journey for this, going to see a dermatologist in a few days. At worst I have minimal balding but I still want to catch it early. Happy to see a fresh upload from someone who clearly puts a lot of thought into the content they produce.
Phenomenal work Rob, thank you.
A long time UA-cam user. I have never seen a video this perfect. Absolute goldmine of information presented so wonderfully.
What an extremely insightful video, thank you so much Rob for all the work you do
I tried rosemary oil, tea tree oil, and pumpkin seed oil with little success, I might consider motor oil...
💀
They don't work much 😂.
Lol
Wow, incredible. Hands down the most useful video on hair loss ever put out. Well done and thank you!
Always good to see new content from you!
Best evidence based hair-loss channel on UA-cam. Period.
Thanks for watching! We’ve got more coming.
Hope to see womens hair loss video really soon!
this was the best video on hair loss I've seen. thanks
That video was the most informative video on this subject matter ive watched to date. Thank you. Subscribed.
I’ve watched sooo many videos about hair loss and this is by far the most complete. Thank you so much for all the work you do 🙏
Best video I have ever seen on hair loss.
perfect video on this topic, no BS
I loved how u explained it so well and with visuals, it’s much easier to understand the whole process. Thank you 🙏🏻
Best most clearest detailed informational and informative video I’ve ever seen on the topic of hair loss and SOLUTIONS! Thank you for this! Answers pretty much all the questions I could think of.
Wow, a lot of work has been done, thats for sure. Thanks a lot
The amount of value in this video is far greater than anything I’ve ever seen. Amazing
I have been doing my own research on this topic for some time now (at least 6 months) and I have to say that this is the best video I've seen on the hair loss topic. It is by far the most in depth and informative on the overall subject of male pattern baldness that I've seen and it has given me a lot of encouragement when it comes to fighting hair loss. Thank you Perfect Hair Health for such a great video!
Priceless video! Thank you for this.
The only thing I can tell is wow
You really got this topic better than my dermatologist
And I am a clinician so I am very grateful to you
💯Epic Report💫
Thank You! 🙏
EVEERY PERSON NEEDS TO WATCH THIS
Everyone dropping content on hair loss should be mandated to watch this first and filter content through this. Killing it yall. The hairy goat of hair loss videos strikes again
Ironically, the sound effects in this vid reminds me of Terminator!
What a video- years of research summarised in an hour. Hats off
Thank you very much
I am not losing my hair, and don't have any of these symptoms of alopecia only my mother's uncle is bald but sometimes I'm worried about this mainly because UA-cam recommends me stuff about hair loss and because I just don't want to lose it now in my 30's. BUT I will take this guide in case I need it in the future. Thank you very much!
If you're over 30 and havent had any hair thinning by now then its highly unlikely you will in the future. Hair loss usually starts in your 20s or earlier.
amazing video! so much truth in it.
the best video I've watched so far on hair loss treatments (besides transplants n SMP). great work! thank you
Amazing video
I have been applying massage, derma roller and micro needling for close to a year. I’m a statistician and in the beginning, I didn’t believe it had any chance and was really pessimistic. I’m happy to update My hair has improved dramatically. I can’t thank you enough. Thank you.❤
Kudos on the results! May I ask if you do massages scalps the same day of microneedling? Or do you give scarring some room before going for it again?
What is the length and interval you're doing with microneedling? Do you use any topical?
@
@akivajacobson4673 Did you have temple recession that came back near completely????
addin minoxidil can even help more, I am doing same and its been 2 months. I even see some small hairs in my receding hairline. I'm not sure if they are gonna grow, but I'm hoping to. They look thicker than before too
Derma-roller is a micro needle…so what are you trying to say
Very informative, well edited video😊. Although I'm not sure that minoxidil with 10% or 15% would make any difference. Was this already researched? Thank you!
Great info
Thanks thanks a ton for making this video
I'm so grateful I found your channel, Rob! Your videos are incredibly informative and have given me a much deeper understanding of hair problems and the hair industry.
However, I would love to see your content translated into indian language Hindi. Having access to this information in my native language would be invaluable for myself and many others in India, where unfortunately, the market is flooded with fake hair products and misleading advice from dermatologists. By providing clear and honest information in Hindi, you could truly make a positive impact on our community.
Love From India,
We need YOU!
Awesome information! Thank you for putting this together. I did have a question on the Retinoic acid though. Some minoxidil solutions combine retinoic acid with topical finasteride (so you get all 3 ingredients in one topical). Do you think this will increase the systemic absorbtion of the Finasteride? I don't think there has been research on this combo specifically
Best video on hair loss on UA-cam hands down! Do you have any recommendations for products for Dutasteride topical and oral spilt?
The best video on hair loss I have ever seen. Have been doing scalp massage 6 months now I am feel like I see some improvements already both in hair count and hair thickness! I have always had a fairly oily scalp and I am afraid I might have those nasty microorganisms. I will try the ketoconazole shampoo as per your suggestion! Keep up with the fantastic work! Greetings from Italy.
Respect, i feel fascinated when i see people like you.
Great video
masterpiece!
Great video Rob! Thanks a lot.
I've noticed that scalp area that comes into contact with a pillow at night never goes bald. Coincidence?
Maybe we should be asking what's wrong with side and rear parts of the scalp instead of the front and crown?
Dude, you are the king. Thank you so much for this.
Great to hear from you man! How are things going?
absolute legend
I Love this guy! 💙
Hello! Thank you so much for this videos and the articles in your page! Is the video about female pattern coming soon?
Your timing is impeccable 🙏 💕
Fantastic information as always Rob!!
Amazing video, lots of efforts by you and your team is clearly visible.
Ps_ waiting for the women specific video on the same issues.
Thankyou
The GOAT is back. About to dive right in to this video
You are the man. I still owe you the pics. I had a massive shedding again but that means big gains are coming. I'm on my seventh month treatment. Finasteride, Minoxidil, Microneedling and I just added Rosemary oil + baby oil for the "dry" scalp. Thanks again!
Any updates? I am taking Finasteride 1mg for 1 month and 2 weeks now. After a month, I am experience shedding.. is it normal? It's been 2 weeks since I begin shedding.. how long does it lasts? Need your help pls
@Jonathan-gy5hk bro, don't quit! It means it's working. I had a second shedding in my 7th month, it lasts like a month, but I see gains now. My friends see big gains as well. The pics and videos show gains. I will be sharing my pics in a month or two because I watched all of his videos and now know for sure that I have to wait at least a year, even two to see full results. Finasteride, Minoxidil, dermarolling 2x a week. Good luck
Is there any reason not to derma stamp every time before you apply topical minoxidil?
Thank you for this vid Rob! Super informative, I also was curious to know about what's your thoughts on Nutrafol as being a natural supplement?
Thanks! Here’s our company investigation on Nutrafol: perfecthairhealth.com/nutrafol-review
HE IS BACK
Thank for the video!
Dude this guy is saving lives out here 😂😂
Hi Rob, I really liked your video on the comprehensive analysis of hair loss root causes for men. But could you please also do a specialized session for women? As there seems to be some differences in terms of root causes for female pattern hair loss. Because my DHT level in blood is really low although I am diagnosed with androgenic alopecia. Thanks a lot for your continuous professional education and contribution to the whole hair loss community ❤😊
Thank you for a comprehensive walk-through and insight into hair loss. I was wondering if you could shed some light on the efficacy and safety of topical 5% Nanoxidil ?
Marvelous video, truly, you've earned a subscriber.
How do you think a person who's never tried any of the approaches in the video would respond to a combination of oral minoxidil and topical dutasteride ? Im looking for the safest approach possible.
Bro, you are the best 👌
thanks from bottom of my heart ❤️ .
I understand so many things for hair growth in just 1 video 😮.
I hope you the best😊 and tanks again 😅😊
Firstttttt!
Thank you,youre the best chanel ever for hair loss !!
Thanks! I hope the video helps!
This was great, thankyou, especially the bits about how to maximise safety by findijg the minimal eficacious dose for drugs.
Thank you for this video! I subscribed to this channel. I've started losing a lot of hair and have done the research. My research aligns with what you presented in this video, so I know you're legit! I'd be lucky to have your hairline! Thanks for your video... it gives me hope that I'm on the right path to get at least some of my hair back. Thanks again!
You are excellent man you condensed this huge information into important high yield concepts to follow and as a hair loss sufferer and doctor I absolutely agree with your analysis keep up the good work
Hats off to you…doing this much hard work in collecting n providing knowledge to the whole world,one thing I would like to say bringing back perfusion to the scalp is the main thing by doing exercises like headstand or parvatasan daily along with it micro needling is beneficial n adding natural Dht blockers will increase hair growth….thank you….
Im waiting ur video for a loooooong time 🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍🙌🙌🙌🙌
Thanks Rob for your detailed video! What about Ketoconazol as a local treatment? Andrew Huberman discussed that there are some promising studies
Wow!! Welcome back ✨🙌🙌
Thank you!
That's the greatest, most informative, well edited, unbiased video on how to deal with hair loss. Loved the video.
I'm 18M. I have been losing hair since I was 14, as soon as I hit puberty. My hair got so thin. Now I'm on finasteride and my hair looks finer and my hair loss almost stopped. My hair appears thicker, the bald spots are not that noticable. I feel so confident. Hope to see better results. I have watched all of your videos. Thank you sir.
Since how long are you on finasteride? How much time it took to show you results
what about sides
Hey Rob, a question for you..
If i chose to do blood tests to check my testosterone levels, what percent of DHT is normal and what is not, and also if the bood test is gonna help me know my DHT levels so that i can take action accordingly by determining whether if it is telogen effluvium or androgenic alopecia..?
Your reply will be much appreciated, Thank you so much for the video!
If now I’m learning researching, you might as well teach me dermatology. 😂
The queue for dermatology is to the roof in 🇬🇧
This video is knowledge of ocean for hair loss.. Deep research with scientific data..every aspect related to hair loss is covered. Great work👍 Love from India🇮🇳❤
Be safe in India brother from Hindutva terrorists
Great vid, thank you 👍🏻🇺🇸
Great job Rob! A question if possible: retinoic acid is difficult to find. I guess that retinol or other retinoids have not the same efficacy. Am I wrong?
I’ve had amazing results from using my iRestore red light helmet 3 days a week and using my Dr. Pen microneedling pen at 0.5 depth once a week.
very informative vid, thank u! I do much of what you mention: I use minoxidil daily, 1mg finasteride, saw palmetto, biotin and derma micro-needling. I do use nioxin shampoo too. I recently bought the kind that is the stamp and not the roller. I think you potentially can pull out good hairs with the roller. I found a good stamp kind (you just press down and not roll it) that has adjustable needle depth on amazon. Occasionally, I'll use fresh aloe juice from the plant. My hair has definitely gotten thicker and I can see new growth at various stages. These interventions don't work overnight, it's a constant battle. I started lsing my hair in my late 20s and I'm in my 50s now. So reversing it the best I can will take time and patience
💯🔥🤌🏽🌿Thank you for sharing.
Website is also killer. Love the pictographs of different hair loss patterns. Wishing you success.
Thanks! Those took a long time to make, and I appreciate you checking them out. We'll have a video about differential hair loss diagnoses soon!
What is your opinion on using topical dutasteride instead of topical finasteride?
Nice 👍
I might’ve missed it, tried watching back a 2nd time. If I do topical finasteride, and oral minoxidil for 24 months; will I have to continue using it after the treatment period to maintain the regrowth?
I was considering doing microneedling as well, I’ve heard derma rollers can cause follicle damage because of the angle they indent the skin, some even say even derma pens can damage the follicle not sure if this is true.
Best video on youtube compiling it all together btw thank you 🙏🏽
Please make a video or tell me if a person suffering from hairloss should use creatine or not.
Thank you for this video I really appreciate it , can we get a video on how to get rid of wrinkles and eyebags and getting a clear skin like yours?
LEGEND
I’m am trying pyrilutamide topical for 2 months. I got the topical from a lab and I noticed that no hair loss after the second week. I will keep on going and I hope I can get something from it.
I use rosemary oil and laser
I use Nizoral 2 times per week
That is my routine
I stopped finasteride oral after 5 years due to side effects
I tried dutasteride oral that gave me the same side effects
Tried topical but still have lost of hair loss
My hope is up on this new medication from china
But amazing results when I look at the floor and no hair loss! I had 4 surveys to my crown. Still not ideal yet
Let’s wait for more data on this new topical product from China
Thank you for your support given us a beautiful overview and putting together this amazing project
I've been doing scalp massages for over a year (when i first saw you video), but sadly only once/day (since i commute to work, it's quite hard to do it 2 times/day). Saw some improvements, mostly regarding hair thickness (even measured thickness under a microscope and it bumped from around ~31 um to around ~45+ um), and some density. Now i've started using the dermapen and also got into pumpkin seed oil pills (to lower the DHT level a bit). As a fellow researcher, I love your videos. Have a great day !
Congrats on your improvements, and thanks for sharing!
Congrats dude! Did dermapen and pumpkin seed helped you or is it too early to tell? Thank you.
@@PerfectHairHealth no, thank you for sharing all this information with us !
@@mystery6088 well, i'm at my 3th month almost of dermapen, and i see some tiny hair follicles emerging some of them are vellus, and some got some melanin.
Bro eat pumpkin seeds directly after soaking them overnight. Don't take oil pills
I appreciate the scalp massages you've recommended, and I've noticed positive changes. Recently, I've been particularly focused on addressing the chronic tightness in the muscle groups connected to the galea. This emphasis on muscle groups,in addition to scalp tissue remodeling, has led to significant improvements. The most suprising muscle that made the biggest differnce was my tongue. I'm curious if there's a platform where individuals are actively sharing progress and exchanging ideas, especially regarding the importance of these muscle groups.
Hey there, I’m also interested in this whole unexplored realm of “scalp massages” . I have roughly been doing it for like an year but I’m guilty of not being very consistent with it so because of that I’ve got mixed opinions about it.
Do you mind sharing your personality experience of scalp massages and whether /how it helped you? And also what specific areas u targeted the most, types of massages done,etc? Thanks :))
@@khawarjahanzeb5383 I have had limited success with the techniques in the video because I found the galea, and the muscles attachments are chronically tight because of bad posture, neck tension, trapezoid tension, jaw tension, and with jaw tension come pelvic floor dysfunction. the way Rob compared the scalp was when you bend your knuckle it becomes tight and white from lack of blood flow. But rubbing your knuckle can only help so much, you need to relax the finger first. The most beneficial thing for me so far has been deep breathing through my nose, until I create a strong vacuum that pulls my tongue back and up to the top of my mouth, making my throat air tight, I use all that pressure to fill lungs and expand my throat and use that expansion to release my jaw. Once my jaw relaxes, I can relax my subbocitpitol, and my brow. I can feel the blood pumping from behind my jaw up through temporal artery. Then I massage my galea and the surrounding muscles. I have gone from a nw7 to having my hair line back but it's still very diffused. I posted on Reddit but the community hates any thing not fin related. it's filled with fin bros.

When this video came up in my feed (watch hundreds of hair loss videos)at an hour long, I thought, give it a go but I will skipping parts, an hour later I watched every second, I was engrossed, well put together, informative and measured. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the kind words! We’ve got more content coming. I hope it helps!
I experienced the thing with being coaxed immediately into PRP. It did seem to work, although not completely clear how much as I was also on a finasteride + minoxidil foam.
And I agree that I saw the same results when I continued with the microneedling (and kept the topicals) after I ditched the expensive PRP.
That makes sense, especially with the timelines of outcomes expected from minoxidil, finasteride, and microneedling. I'm glad you're saving money!
@@PerfectHairHealth Yup, depending where you get it it may be a LOT of money saved. You can get a very fancy derma pen with a small fraction of that cost.
The important part here is having the information in the first place, so you are saving wallets. And a lot of anxiety for the guys new to these issues.
are you taking finasteride topical or oral?
@@kondermts Topical, I made sure to mention it.
@@Leonhart_93 try and peptide coppers after for roller 1.5.must to work very well
You were very enthusiastic about scalp massages when I first saw your videos a few years back ,infact I think it was the main reason you got your hair back if I remember correctly, now your underplaying them ...hmmmm could be a few reasons for think 😊
I think he just doesnt want to come off as a snake oil salesmen if he just puts his massage technique on a pedestal. From the comments, a lot of people already think its fake because sadly, most people are narrow minded af. He talks a lot about drugs because people generally trust pharma companies more than alternative treatments.
hey rob!
my dermatologist keeps forcing me to get prp done. he also claims that microneedling wont benefit me unless its combined with prp and i should not be performing microneedling by myself.
thanks to you! because of you i have confidence to reject his offers and save my money :)
Thanks for all that u do bro. My hair bounced back 🔥
🙌
how was it? Please answer me
@@enesbolat1204 what do u mean?
@@elinieto5170 How did you get your hair back? What kind of agents did you use and how did you massage?
Great content! I followed your advices since over a year ago and noticed a regrow tendency but every time i try even mild microneedling(various lengths) I get scar tissue lasting for few days. My scalp tend to build scar tissue even without needling during winter. This winter I observe return of balding proces. Any clues how to get a round that? (+1,5 year of 1mg finasteride and +7 months topocal minoxidyl; 2x week antibdendruff shampoo, rest of the days mild cleansing shampoo)
OMG! this probably is the only hair loss prevention video you'll ever need to see. Absolutely phenomenal work!!!🎉
Hello Rob. Can i dissolve finasteride or dutasteride in to the minoxidil? What dose? Will it go systemic?
Thank you so much for quality information ❤
I hope it helps! Thanks for watching.
Thanks bro, 6 months in and most of my hair is back. You are the man🥂
Bhai kaise kiya.
Woh bhai English me samjha raha hai kuch palle nhi padh raha.
Bro please meri thodi help kar de 🙏🥺
@@MominAbBasitmassage your scalp with a head oil use a roller which puts tiny holes on your scalp which stimulates blood flow to your head
Could you share how did you do It? Finasteride?
Any suggestions on type of Dutasteride to go with brand wise? And or topical
