Guess I should have posted this in my rants forum.<br /><br />How many of you are sick and tired of the commercial for Avacore (hair loss stuff..whatever called)<br />I hear this commercial mostly on talk radio and sometimes on TV.<br /><br />I mean come on... It says, "Don't let hair loss ruin your life" stop DHT etc..."<br /><br />WHO CARES! If I lose it, so what!<br />Our society is so hell bent on image. Makes me want to puke.<br /><br />How many people really buy into this garbage?<br />Kinda like a physcic...Even worse, a pet physcic!<br /><br />Have you seen that TV program on DirecTv about a pet physcic? If people are that stupid, then they don't deserve money...LOL!<br /><br />AAAGRHHH!! :mad: :mad: <br /><br />H.

Homerr,<br /><br />Agree, vanity is king in this country.<br /><br />We have several generations that have been taught nothing but-self esteem.<br /><br />Humulity is a lost art.

I'm with you, Homerr. <br /><br />The women I know think bald is sexy and pretending is silly.<br /><br />I am, of course, both. (Bald and sexy, that is.) :D

Re: Commercials

I heard that these DHT blockers cause sexual side effects, as well... like impotence. You go through all the work of getting back your "sex appeal", then you can't do anything about it :rolleyes: <br /><br />I have all my hair, it's just graying rapidly, giving me the "Paulie Walnuts" look... still have mixed emotions on THAT! :)

I've seen the pet physcic on Animal Channell. You're right - pretty dumb. Like some comedian (forget who) said, if these folks were really phycic, they would know I need to talk to them and call me!

Re: Commercials

Bad thing about most of these hair growing products is your hair drops out even faster if you quit using them.<br /><br />I am losing hair fast. Got my first grey hair at 17. Nothing I can do. My hair looks just like my Dad's. I thought baldness was supposed to come from your Mom's side. Oh well. I'm not vain.

Re: Commercials

Hate to say it guys but Rogain works for me. I'm growing hair instead of losing it. So nice to have a head full of hair. :D <br /><br />And if you don't like comercials I have one word for you "TIVO" It will change your life intirely.<br />Trust me. :D

Trollhole, there is no doubt it works for qa lot of people. Just don't stop using it.<br /><br />How come I keep getting less hair on my head and more hair everywhere else. Who needs ear hair when your old?

My hair didn't fall out.<br /><br />It sunk into my skull and now it's popping out my ears, nose and chin. :D

Re: Commercials

lmao at JB, especially the first post...<br /><br />i'm lucky i guess. or i married some bald guys wife. mine feels just like you wrote JB... and i still have a head full of hair. now, i'd probably trade my hair for bones that didn't creak & pop.<br /><br />i do work with a guy who had transplants. i have to say it is amazing. too bad he's a computer tech, and hasn't got the $$$ to get the rest of his forehead covered...

Re: Commercials

I'm in the shop, Two brothers were working near each other. I hear one of the guys say to his brother, You s.o.b. What the h*ll did you do that for. I go walking over. The one that yelled is rubbing his head with a towel. The other one is laughing. I said, "What's going on over here?" The one rubbing his head says, "He just spray painted my head. The one laughing stops long enough to say, "I saw it on TV last night." I shook my head and started to walk away, then said, "Mercury black is too shiny, you should have tried flat black."
