Hare Club for Men – Gummy Candy

Try Hare Club for Men, where you can get a nice hare to show off to you friends. The Hare Club for Men package includes 10 Gummi Bunnies and a fun collectible sticker in the fancy box shown below. About 300 calories for the whole box and zero grams of fat, it works for the diet conscious person. Our society exploits the balding process as illustrated here in this cartoon. Some of my readers are too intense so this entry will better prepare you for the more serious entries below.

Oh yes, this candy is legit and although I can’t find any mention of it online, I do know from the box that it is a seasonal Easter candy made by a company called Galerie out of Kentucky. I thought people would get a kick out of it… Ha!

Har Vokse

I was just curious about the new product “Har Voske”, their claims are that “in clinical studies it was shown to stop hair loss and promote regrowth in 90% of participants.” Have you ever heard of this product and would you happen to know if it is FDA approved or even effective?

Thank you.

“HÃ¥r Vokse” literally translates from Norwegian to “hair grow”. The product site says it is a blend of “marine polysaccharides”. There’s more than a few products out there that use these fish proteins and offer claims of hair loss treatment, but I would doubt that it actually does what its name implies.

There’s no FDA approval for this (or any supplement like it, since it isn’t required). The most well known product like it is probably Viviscal, and I wrote about that one many years ago here.

Finally, the site talks about a study published in the Journal of international Medical Research, but I can’t locate the study to see what they’re referring to.

Happy patient with photo results

This man worried through the entire growth phase of his new hair growth until one day he looked into the mirror and saw himself as shown here. I always tell patients that you can’t watch your hair grow like you can’t really watch the grass grow, yet one day you step back and see a green lawn when you planted the seeds correctly just like a good hair transplant that just appears perfectly normal. What is important to note is the hairline, which is not a line, but a subtle zone before the thicker hair from the transplant fills in behind this transition zone which is made of irregularly placed single hair grafts (about 400 in this man).

Happy New Year from BaldingBlog!

Happy New Year
We’re taking a couple days off for the New Year celebration, but will be back on Wednesday, January 2nd with more hair loss questions and answers!

2007 was a very good year for BaldingBlog, as the site saw substantial growth in visitor traffic and number of questions answered. I’m pleased that I was able to help so many this year. I believe we published somewhere around 1700-1800 posts in the past 12 months! It’ll be hard to top 2007, but here’s to a great 2008!

Happy New Year!
