    Jesse, I feel for you bud! I started losing my hair in my early 20's and it really destroyed my confidence. I just lived in hats & caps forever until I decided to bite the bullet and get a hair transplant, and honestly it's the best thing I've ever done for myself. My hairline has been restored and now 12months post op you'd never be able to tell! In terms of non-surgical approaches, I've had great success restoring hair on my crown taking Finasteride and Minoxidil, it takes a while to kick in but it really works!

I’m also losing my hair and its hard when ur ugly bald. I know it was the fin for a fact because he would stop taking it sometimes for periods of time and his dick would go back to normal and same with his sex drive. So please guys dont torture ur gf’s if u go on fin with ur low sex drives cuz its obvious. Also it did scare me that it might turn men gay overtime from what I experienced.

    @aquacandela3705 2 роки тому +7

    Something important for anyone watching is the key culprits and solutions for each individual is gonna vary. Some people may experience great results using red light because their problem probably had something to do with scalp circulation and or poor blood quality, on that coin some people see a return of hair by simply consuming zink, selenium, curcumin, Vitamins D3 and C. Stressers play a huge role as well, endocrine disruptors such as chlorine (in the water you bathe), or emotional factors alone can spike cortisol on a chronic level leading to hair loss.
    Don't be discouraged if one method doesn't work for you, it doesn't mean It doesn't work for everyone, and it doesn't mean something else won't work for you. You gotta experiment with yourself across the board to find your solutions, could it be A LOT of work for some? Yes, but be encouraged and experiment.

      Also, this would work best on people who detect their hair loss (eg. AGA or TE) early, have miniaturised hairs that CAN be revived in the first place and it's realistically going to fail on anyone with dead hair follicles like the person reviewing. It won't miraculously grow hair back where none was.

    "This is what I look like and that's OK" I resonated with that! Vlogging has really helped me to view myself as (I think) others see me. I don't think about what I'm wearing or my hair or if I have make up on. That's just what I look like in that moment. I was wondering if other people felt that way.

    I've always hoped we would reach a point where creators could break out of their niche and offer their experience on something different. You have used cameras and filmmaking to bridge your unique personality to others. And now that we are here, I'm confident you can talk to me about a laser hat scam or uncrustables, or whatever.
    Also, as someone who's been sans hair for a few years now, anything that normalizes hair loss is pure gold to me. Because frankly, most stigmas, pressures, awkward tensions etc. are predominantly put upon those losing their hair by others. People who instinctively assume there's a big deal here without our input.
    Someone with hair loss is just the person they were with hair, for better or worse.
    And finally much love to those identifying more feminine dealing with hair loss, as the stresses and pressures are exponential. You're beautiful, too!

    I think that lasers in general work, but it's just not enough to beat male pattern baldness.
    It might be a nice little addition to other treatments potentially making them slightly more effective. But even stabilizing the hair situation actually might be viewed as a success. It matters, for example, when considering a hair transplant.
    What I know for sure is that it's much more effective for women than men.

    Around 18 I decided I was mature enough to accept how I looked so, I shaved my hair completely with a razor and from that day on I’ve done it everyday for the last 17 years. Every single day.

I did a terrible diet for good 20 years starving myself since 16, have been always having tons of stress by so many things for decades, aging etc. I spent $900 for this even tho I got a lot of discounts with promotions. I would say they're so many more to try in less costs out there.I did tried MANY, and I have still trying many things based on natural way.

      @@poo9305 Oh man, I'm so sorry to hear this isn't helping. As far as WHY we are losing our hair, it's apparently extremely common for women as we approach menopause - it's just never discussed. The numbers are something like 50 million men, and 30 million women (!!) experience some form of androgenetic alopecia. My best guess is that women do a really good job of hiding it and then it's a shock to the rest of us who never saw it coming. I'm trying to just accept it, but it's a lot different for women than for men. Thank you for replying, I appreciate it!

      You are very welcome🙂 It is so true about the menopause effects... I didn't know that time of my age but I am kinda certain that my peri menopause started at the age of around 32. Lots of things happening and I saw many docs, did a lot of tests of everywhere of my body and all the results came back negative but you know lots of things happening to your whole body is not normal at all!! I started researching, and realized that it must had been a hormonal change, " Peri menopause"...😢😢 I can't really still succeed to win about the hair loss obviously but I have managed lots of other changes to deal with better. But I used to have TOO thick and TOO much hair that I wanted to have less when I was younger ( how stupid I used to wish...) to this needing hair more... I am still trying to get my hair back at least some more😩Hope you can find something that works to grow hair back too🤩

    Well... here's my view from age 68: Aging is a moving target. Would you be far more bald now if you hadn't done it? Not sure what to think about this single year of your life not knowing the fate of your brother's and fathers and maternal grandfather's hair etc at this age.
    On the other hand - I very much get what you are saying about the mickey mouse quality of this product - we still have so much to learn about watts and wavelengths and devices, pulsing patterns, how this pairs with other sources of light you are exposed to. For example - if you had quite a bit of UV light to your head during this year - UV moves you in the opposite direction. It doesn't seem that you did have this opposing effect - but n of 1 is always tough to make real sense of.

    Honest video but really you should have kept the hair the same length throughout the entire run. Density and the appearance of density are such minute and interconnected things, you're not going to be able to judge that from looking in a mirror at a buzzed head. If you look at people who use hair micro fibers like Toppik you're amazed at how little it takes to really thicken up an area. If all the hair had gotten more dense and was at the same length you would have noticed a difference. You probably would not have noticed that same change when comparing it buzzed. But hey, no bs you look great with it buzzed anyway

    All of these products can’t address male pattern baldness. It’s in your genes (and mine unfortunately)for your hair follicles to stop producing and revert to normal scalp cells. These products (and quite frustratingly, most people) conflate the experience most WOMEN have with “hair thinning” and the experience MEN have with genetic balding. Hair thinning when it isn’t related to male pattern baldness is 100% caused by the follicles not getting nutrients they need to grow thick and long strands of hair. Yes, you can experience hair loss from this as well as it worsens, and products and supplements like these will actually help you! But there ain’t a single serum, pill, or light that can bring back hair follicles lost by genetics 🤷‍♂️. I accepted my hair line and I’ve grown to be ok with it. I have a couple hats I sometimes wear out when I’m feeling self conscious about it. But for the most part, I keep it short, and my wife still says I’m handsome. Can’t complain!

    There's a very common misconception when it comes to irestore. You need to used it before your hair follicles die off. Once they die they will never grow back no matter what product you use. It should help him keep the hair he has not grow the hair follicles you lost years ago. When you shaved your head I could tell that your hairline was further back and most likely those hairs follicles are gone already unfortunately they won't come back. Try micro needling and the laser and hopefully you can keep it

      Hey! Thanks for the comment. I’ve had this deep hairline since early high school (15 years or so) so I had no thoughts that might change. Unfortunately the irestore marketing heavily leans in and in fact encourages that misconception. They frequently share videos and testimony of regenerating hair growth. I’m also fine believing that it does in fact work for some people, I’m just not one of them.

      This is not completely true. How can you explain the phenomenon where when balding men with dead follicles undergo a sex change they get back all their lost hair?

      @@Way_Of_The_Light in simple terms if the hair follicle is dead you’re not really reviving it. But in some rare cases, people with severe balding have hair follicles that for some reason our dormant and are not dead. For those lucky few if they happen to get on hormone therapy as a transgender person or even in very very few cases people who try low level laser therapy who have already significantly, balded will in fact grow backhair.
      But don’t be fooled, if the follicles are dormant, you have a chance of restoring that hair. If the follicles are dead, that’s it for that hair.

      If your hair follicles are dead (not miniaturised or vellus hair), you can't grow it back with microneedling. That's where this review is failing, but unfortunately ireview doesn't stress it enough that it's not a miracle cure + simply cannot achieve that and I can't blame him for having the wrong expectations.

I love not having to worry about keeping up with it and the ease of just shaving it but there are still those moments where the thoughts creep in. Thanks for the video!

    Hair transplant is the only way to go if you want results.

You have a good shaped head Jesse, I’d just keep it shaved if what you have currently bothers you. I think you’re awesome; you have a beautiful family and that’s all that really matters.

      I’m 36(about to be 37 next week). Just noticed thinning by my left temple and I’m panicking. I will look awful bald, I have moles on my head. Idk what to do. But the only thing I can see when I look in the mirror is thinning.. I don’t even think it’s that bad yet but it looks worse everyday to me. I don’t think there is a doctor in the world who would do a transplant this early into losing hair. I don’t notice any shedding at all in the shower. I don’t know how to go about it, if I can just do something to make it stop where it is now i would be okay. Any suggestions? I see my dermatologist in a week and a half for other reasons so I was going to ask her as well, but I keep feeling like my hair is going to be really bad by the time I get there because every time I look at it I feel like it’s worse and worse(idk if that’s in my head or what).

    Don't let anyone tell you it's no big deal or try to minimize your feelings about hair loss. Acceptance takes time. Our appearances help us form our identities, and society is a little too flippant about men who are experiencing hair loss. I'm glad you gave this a try because, if nothing else, the process will help inform your future choices about this topic and might even allow for a level of comfort with your "new" look. I went through a similar experience when my beard went full Gandalf on me (white) over less than a year from black-brown. Great experiment and video, Jesse. All the best.

    The hardest part of going bald for me has been watching it steadily happen on video. Filming myself and editing videos of myself constantly showed me. I was taking screenshots and showing friends like “look how bald I’m going”. Until I just shaved it and haven’t looked back. I notice it still in the shaved head, but I don’t focus on it anymore. I’m freer and much happier personally. My hair doesn’t define me. Ha
