HairMax

I am in my 70's and about 8 years ago, my hair began really thinning. I then bought a refurbished HairMax laser comb for $350. It did increase the number of hairs on my head. Over the years, however, my hair began dramatically falling out and large areas of my scalp were showing. The laser comb was no longer helping. I then had my hair follicles checked by a dermatologist and learned my hair follicles were healthy. I then began using Rogaine (5% minoxidil) and NutriOx shampoos, conditioner, and scalp therapy. After 3 months I saw that new hairs were growing. I now have a full, normal-looking head of hair. I had tried Rogaine about 15 years ago and it made my scalp itch so I stopped it. Apparently the formula has been changed and it no longer itches. I am literally thrilled with how my hair, which has never been all that full, looks.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I was very skeptical about this and thought it was nonsense when I saw it on QVC. But, with a half year guarantee, I figured why not?

Like most people, I used it for a few days then stopped. Then I said I have to at least use it as directed and did it three times a week for four months straight, never missing a day. I noticed after about 3-4 months that there were much less hairs in the shower each day and my hair in the front and sides were getting better. Did my hair magically go from none to a full head of hair? No. But you can't wait that long until you use this.

I had about 85% of my hair with thin spots here and there, but now it seems close to 90%, or at least the hair is not continuing to thin as fast. It appears to work for me, but you have to use it every other day for at least four or five months and not stop. When I stopped after that time, after a month or so there was more hair in the shower. Now I am not stopping, and the hair is not as bad like I said above.

I am 65, have great skin, but my hair was getting so thin I felt like I was going to have to start wearing a hairpiece to feel confident again. I tried hair shampoo treatment products, some of which stopped my hair from falling out, but didn’t see the regrowth I wanted. I purchased the HairMax handheld brush last July, hoping that this purchase wasn’t going to be a waste of time and money like so many things that I have bought. Well, let me tell you - I am thrilled with the results! I have before and after pictures, the latest of which was taken last week. I was absolutely shocked when I compared the pictures. I knew my hair was fuller, but didn’t realize how well it had grown back in.

I use the brush twice a week, but honestly, I am certainly not perfectly on schedule by any means. The product was easy to use, and took about 5 minutes or so to use. My problem was remembering to use it! Had I used it religiously, it wouldn’t have taken me so long to write this review. I would forget about it for a week, two weeks, sometimes longer, and would be reminded when my hair started falling out again.

I will use this brush until it wears out, and plan to upgrade to the cap at that time.

Length of Use: 1–2 years
