I’m sorry but we failed to celebrate bald guy’s day last year but if you were to ask me, there is always a reason to celebrate the day. And right now, everyone seems to be celebrating something – after all, we have a few holidays packed in tightly together.
So imagine my surprise when I discovered (in the midst of all these celebrations) that I missed National Bald and Free Day. No joke, the United States has nationally recognized (more…)

Because of my role (as a distributor of Volluma) I try to keep up on blog posts, forums, articles, press releases and other sources of information about male pattern baldness and thinning hair. And one thing has been bothering me a lot lately. It’s the number of negative comments I keep reading from teens and young men who are experiencing receding hairlines at exceptionally young ages.

Have you ever heard the saying, “We are what we think about and we do what we really want to do?”
It’s true. Have you ever started a diet only to realize three weeks later that you have yet to lose any weight? And why is that? Well, when it came right down to it, what you really wanted to do was have a beer and watch TV instead of work out. Even though you “thought” losing weight was what you wanted most, you discovered that what you really wanted was to relax and watch sports. (more…)

I was watching football this weekend and realized I have a very bad habit – I stereotype. Like almost everyone else out there, I judge people based on their looks. Specifically, I was watching the outrageous fans (you know – the ones who paint their bodies with team colors) and the cheerleaders (who all look exactly alike). (more…)

A “Botched Hair Transplant” was what he called it…
Last week I had a call from a new Volluma user that tragically suffered a botched hair transplant. His explanation was that the blood flow to his scalp was disrupted during the surgery and some of his existing hair was now falling out – YIKES! (more…)

If I was not a major distributor of Volluma Hair Thickener – which you should all try by the way – I think I may have explored the psychology world. So, given my nature to analyze, I hope you’ll indulge me by thinking about this question: what really bothers you about thinning hair? (more…)

I don’t how many of you follow “The Onion” online but it’s a tonge-in-cheek “news” website that’s hilarious.
This “study” should tickle your fancy and give you some male hair loss “facts” to share.
I know, I’ve experienced the “pain” personally and I’m sure you have too. Now we have the “proof” to share and I’ll bet your significant other will really appreciate it.

It’s not much of a consolation, but at least those of us coping with baldness and thinning hair know it’s not our fault. It’s our genetics. It’s our bodies. It’s the diseases we’ve been fighting. We didn’t choose to have this happen. The hair just fell out. We are completely and totally blameless.
Okay…like I said, not much of a consolation. But we (more…)

You’ve tried. Heaven knows you’ve tried to ignore your receding hairline or the balding patches on your head. Your life would be so much easier if you weren’t self-conscious every time you walked into a club, met a stranger, or looked in the mirror.

As someone who knows the pains of hair loss, I feel comfortable making this general statement to every man with thinning hair:
Come on guys…cut yourself a break!
By now, you’ve seen all the half-hearted attempts to cover thinning hair or baldness. You’ve seen the comb-overs, the cheap toupees, and (more…)

Every day I am grateful to be a married man. And not just married, but married to an absolutely amazing woman. That being said, it doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten what it’s like to be single or that I’m immune to the affects of male pattern baldness.
But, as a “specialist” in hair thickeners and thinning hair solutions, I have to be more objective. And, I frequently spend time online finding topics to discuss with you.
So here’s what struck me today as I was (more…)

Wayne Rooney, super young and successful British Soccer star has recently undergone a hair transplant. That news has been splashed all over the Internet for the last three days. Now, hair transplants are common enough, however, when it’s a celebrity the topic seems to attract a little more attention.
But what surprised me – and I read several articles about it – were the personal attacks Rooney received from the media and from other men who suffer with (more…)

There’s a great scene in the movie Return to Me. Minnie Driver is on a blind date with a guy who’s recently gotten hair plugs. The strands of hair are obviously plugs, but that doesn’t stop the man from bragging about the work he’s had done.
The movie scene is meant to be a joke. In actuality, the companies that offer surgical hair transplantation do a really decent job. But is it the right choice for you? (more…)

Hair loss can be controlled when acted upon in it’s early stages and with men it can be fairly straightforward to control with some drugs.
