Boots Hair Retention Programme this Wed.

[redrob]

Guys, I'm going to my nearest branch this Wednesday for a consultation. I know that this is basically just propecia and that I could get the same cheaper elsewhere but I feel more comfortable doing it this way at the moment.

Has anyone here been previously? What were your experiences?

Also, can you think of any questions I should be sure to ask when I am there?

Thanks.

This is basically propecia without the prescription from a doctor. From what I gather it costs around £35 per month. They give you 3 options - purchase monthly, quarterly and even bi-yearly.

Don't expect too much. A questionaire stating the obvious. You have male pattern baldness.

They may look at your head and may take photo's. Sometimes they suggest you to take on their brand of minoxidil [which is cheaper than regaine].

I went for a consultation once and as TeddyRuxpin said it is basically a questionaire and a Propecia course at extortionate rates.

I was on the London Underground at the weekend and two Hair Loss Companies are advertising on the Tube. Both Boots and Pro Hair Biosystems were advertising on the same escalator at Kings Cross.

Pro Hair Biosystems were advertising ProFusion shampoo and conditioner and Boots were advertising their hair retention programme.

Interestingly enough there were about ten times as many posters for ProFusion than there were for Boots.

Boots don't need to advertised their hair retention programme due to only one thing. The profit margin is actually minimal. They don't make much money from it, even though they charge £30 per month.

Pro Hair Biosystems will milk it in or expect to from global or national advertisement. If successful, in less than 1 year from desperate individuals they will rake in more than several million on a useless product.

WTF?

Ok.... this Paolo guy or whatever his name is is REALLY fishy. All his recent posts are about this "ProFusion" shampoo and conditioner that supposedly "stopped his hairloss."

THen I look at his blog and it's all ads about profusion and blog entries about how nizoral shampoo causes testicular atrohpy and finasteride giving guys cancer.

He also has DISCOUNT codes on his blog so people go out and buy this stuff.

I would hate to have a young 18 yr old kid come and read his blog, buy that stuff for super expensive, and lose time in terms of trying a VIABLE treatment for hairloss like propecia.

Please investigate this mods

I would carry out a virus check on your computer too. You might need to buy ProFusion virus scanner to remove the virus. LOL.
