Making 21st Century Sense About Hair Loss

A client recently sent the following to us after positing it to a number of online forums: -

—

It’s on your computer keyboard. It’s on your pillow. It’s in and around your sink trap. It’s on your shoulders. It’s inside your helmet, hat or headgear. It’s just about everywhere but where it’s meant to be.

‘It’ of course is your hair; hair that’s raced frantically to the telogen stage of its life cycle. It’s almost as if every bulb and follicle each have miniature magnets with like poles facing one another.

Assuring ourselves this is likely to be temporary; stress related perhaps, we solider on. Our third eye will soon start to notice the sleazy hair-loss market related advertising throughout the printed and online world; there are over 1.3 million hair loss products in the northern hemisphere alone!

Eventually we catch a glimpse of ourselves in the mirror or on a photograph and that, paradoxically, is when the strength of our ‘bond’ is at its most promising. Our ironclad engagement is formed with a market that is perpetually littered with maximum promises and low returns. It’s market that tweets, blogs and articulates high quality information about low quality products to desperate people willing to ‘give it a go’.

We need to disenthrall ourselves with most claims being made by hair loss product producers no matter how much gloss their marketing, labels, or even products contain. We need to refuse to be blinded by science as our hands – already thumbing through our wallets for our credit cards – convince us we need to try the latest hair loss solution. 

I cannot say for sure exactly how much I wasted on the global world of hair loss products but I know it was somewhere between £15-20k. I know. It’s shocking. It feels like I tried almost every latest product and gadget that came available. I can’t believe I found time for any other activity; in hindsight I was always treating my hair fall.

After searching the world over (via the internet) incredibly and ironically it was a product that is manufactured just across the Pennines that reversed my hair loss. In less than 11 weeks I saw my own first green shoots of hope. Hope indeed was the always soil of my hair loss. My cost of eventual ‘success’ was negligible. The product that is most effective has a relatively low cost but high return.

They were of course referring to Hairsense which is getting great reviews from UK, Australia and the USA. See the Hairsense-online website for a natural hairloss solution that works.

Our new friends

Though unrelated to hair loss we really like what the peoplr over at Delay the Gratification are doing so we are recommending you take a look.

WHAT’S YOUR HAIR LOSS COUNT?

Losing over 10 hairs in 60 second home test excessive

A recent study [1] has concluded that to lose just 10 hairs a day is “normal”; any more may now be considered excessive.
 
The study also concluded that a simple “60-second home hair count” is a fast and reliable away to get a grip on whether you are balding and, if so, at what kind of rate.

Find out with 100% accuracy what your daily hair loss count is with Hairsense’s hair loss count kit.

The kit has been specially developed by trichologists and product developers with over 50 years experience in the treatment of hair and scalp maladies.

What’s in the kit?

• 1 x 50ml HS Tricho Formulation Shampoo
  Enough to perform your personal hair loss count over three days on two separate occasions.

• 1 x Professional HS hair loss comb
  Plastic bristles in ordinary combs can look like a saw under a microscope and can dislodge additional hairs. The Hairsense Professional comb in your kit has ‘teeth’ which are perfectly designed, spaced and smoothed for the 60 second hair loss count test as well as smooth tips.

• Full instructions
  You’ll achieve 100% accuracy with our guide. It’s straightforward and features a handy chart for plotting your results; perfect for comparing with later tests.

Hairsense Power Comms

Hairsense have contracted an Ex-BT Senior Internal Employee Comunications Manager to deliver a programme of mailings on its exciting range of anti hair loss products.

“The mailings will be attractive, punchy and powerful.” said Lee Cunningham from Hairsense-Online, “we have lots of great things to say about the growing range of Hairsense products but realise that we’re competing for people’s time. They’ll be visual, short and very sweet with special giveaways and offers for readers.”

Hairsense has been dubbed as “The original laser-comb in a bottle” due to its success in stopping hair loss in its tracks and promoting fresh healthy hair growth; this is a product that is going from strength to strength.

Senior Trichologist and Hairsense Product Developer Joanne Cunningham said “Hairsense really does give those suffering from hairloss a second chance at having great looking healthy hair – our Ironclad Promise underpins this. There has been many new and exciting developments over the last six months including; increasing the size of the range, a fantastic new dedicated website, a FREE Hairsense sample service, our presence on Second Life and much much more has happened that deserves great communications.

Hair Loss Touch Screen Kiosk Content

Multimedia content which advises hair loss sufferers on the best course of action for them has been developed for use in a portable touch screen kiosk that will tour a number of locations in the UK over the coming months.

Hairsense has worked in collaboration with Touchpro Media to come up with bright and informative content that can be digested in bite size chunks whilst visitors to health and leisure facilities arrive, pass through or wait in gym and health club reception areas.

The content can be sneak viewed on the media pages of the main hairsense website: www.hairsense-online.co.uk

New Look Website

The Hairsense Anti Hair Loss range has a new URL, a new look and lots of new functionality. The URL is the permanent home for the site now that development is, in the main complete.

Users can now see snippets of recent product press headlines and also take a closer look at the labels by clicking on the images on the individual product pages.

Enhancements have also been made to the meet other users pages and there’s even a new favicon to complete the changes.

The next electronic advert has been put onto eBay – its a 30 day advert with prominent features in the hope that it is featured first.

Lost Hair Generation

Busy day yesterday as we were putting together “Lost Hair Generation” a Hairsense flavoured parody of Lost Generation. Well its almost there now as you can see below. Please comment and let us know what you think. The idea is for the short video to appear in every electronic advert that we produce for our web shop, eBay, and naturally the official Hairsense Website.

The aim is to shock the viewer into thinking, why would a company advertising a hair loss product place a message relating to the low chances of ceasing hair loss and in an advert for its products? The reason of course is evident from half way through the infomercial.
