My husband is 34 and has been gradually getting thin on top for the past 5+ years. It bothers him and to be honest, I miss his soft, thick waves and short pony tail worthy hair. He still pulls it into a short pony, but there is a large balding scalp area in the back. It has gotten incredibly bad in the last year. I am not sure if it is the increase of stress and hard labor with his job, paired with lack of taking his vitamins properly, and living off coffee, consistently less than 6-7 hours of sleep, and little water, or just DHT and male baldness catching up.
I am quite sure those lifestyle choices are aspects that have sped up the process. But I am also sure that his male pattern hair loss has increased in the past year. He has used Rogaine and other similar hair products for years, but for about a 6 month period in the last year, he had stopped using it due to trying to save funds. (I tell him how if he stops using it, the hair loss will increase and it will seem like he is worse than before). Yes, pretty sure that has happened.
I was given the opportunity to review a minoxidil product for men. The brand is Regenpure and they manufacture a wide assortment of hair care products that improve the texture and health of hair, specifically thin, balding hair.
Regenepure Precision Spray is the only 5% minoxidil formula on the market to use a fine mist spray applicator. This high grade 5% minoxidil formula is clinically shown to stop the progression of male pattern baldness, improve texture, fullness, and regrow hair. The fine mist applicator spray is easy and convenient to use, ensuring that the formula reaches the scalp for maximum effectiveness and ease of use. I think this is a fantastic idea as he was not as find of the dropper that he usually uses. The spray makes it more "precise" as the box markets. He can spray in the exact area of concern.
He has only been testing this a month, so we cannot comment as to if it is regrowing hair and slowing loss. Please realize that it can take up to 3-6 months to see results. With products such as hair growth supplements/products, weight loss or antiwrinkle creams/serums, you have to be patient and diligently use it.
As mentioned above, if you stop using Minoxidil, any new hair may not fill in/regrow and hair will likely return to its weakened state and fall out. So far he likes this product, I just need to make sure he uses it twice per day and does not skimp on it, or else his hair will skimp on him.
Regenepure Precision is available on Amazon.
I am not a doctor, dermatologist, or hair guru/stylist, so please make your own decisions on whether a product like this is right for you. It claims to be an effective, safe treatment for androgenic alopecia and male pattern baldness. He has had zero irritation, and no negative side effects. I have seen him have improvement on Minoxidil in previous years, and so am very hopeful about this brand. We love the spray feature.
This is my honest opinion and was sent to me for review. I did not promise a positive report. I was not compensated in any way other than receiving this 1 bottle as a sample/tester.
