My son is 24 and is balding from crown to front across the whole top of his head.He’s depressed and we’re going tomorrow for a consult with hrg, pgh, pa. we are both paycheck to paycheck, but, i’d do anything for his state of mind to get back on track, this is so unfair and he’s become a different person. how much are we in for with a hair transplant? it’s gonna be the entire top of his head. thanks for any replies. i’m his mom and he’s had a tough life, and he’s quite a good kid, man….help!!!!
I’m sorry to hear about your son’s hair loss experience. It’s particularly tough for a young man.I strongly suggest that you get him a prescription for Propecia/Finasteride. This once a day pill is the closest thing to a “Miracle Cure for Hair Loss”. In 80% of men it either slows, stops or even reverses hair loss. To learn more about Propecia visit the Propecia section of this site.
The generic version of Propecia - ”Finasteride” can be as cheap as $20 per month. Hair Transplants to cover the entire top of his head could cost $15,000 or more. TRY PROPECIA FIRST.I suggest you get a free prescription from one of the top hair restoration recommended on the Hair Transplant Network

Your post makes sense. I also think Propecia is a less expensive method and better option than hair transplants. Its well worth a try.

I had a reader go through this same thing and back in July I suggested going on Propecia. He did and hasn’t noticed further hair loss since the end of August. He is 26 and loving Propecia (Finasteride). He’s thinking about starting minoxidil or laser treatment to try and regrow the hair he lost before using Propecia.
Best,

Still, I would advise your son to go for herbal products to chemical ones. Baldness cure herbal treatments are safe. I can vouch for that since my fiancé was benefited largely.
He was suffering from this very same problem :( After a few years we’ve been together, hardly a few hairs flew gracefully on his scalp. Everybody was suggesting for a transplant or grafting! But it would have taken a lot of money and we did not know about the side effects or whether it was really the long term “solution”!
Then one of my friends suggested me a herbal product for baldness cure. Her cousin had the same problem as well. I and Erin (my finance), immediately went for it. Really it started doing magic after some time. Our patience paid off. Shedding of hair stopped within a week almost completely. And it still seems to be a miracle that only after a month, thin hairs started growing again. So you can try this baldness cure product for your son.

Annie,
What herbal solution are you advising? Despite the marketing hype of “scam” proucts, there are no herbal solutions out there that fight against hair loss to date. The fact that you used the word “cure” in your sentence is highly alarming. Either you are selling herbal products or you are highly misinformed as their is no cure for baldness period.
