3 men share what they wish someone told them about hair loss

It can feel like hair loss happens overnight.
When you spot signs of thinning hair, it’s easy to ignore them until, seemingly suddenly, you notice a bald spot. Even though hair loss treatment is effective, it takes time to work and the earlier you start the more effective it is likely to be. That’s why it’s important to start treating thinning hair as early as possible.
With Roman, you can connect with a US-licensed medical professional for a free consultation to see if prescription hair loss treatment is right for you. The company also offers an over-the-counter hair loss treatment (5% minoxidil).
The best part is, Roman offers treatments that are backed by science and FDA-approved! In clinical studies in men with vertex (crown) hair loss, prescription treatment was effective at stopping hair loss in 83% of men (McClellan,1999). In another study, 70.6% of men using the foam version of 5% minoxidil (generic Rogaine) for 16 weeks reported improvement in hair loss (Olsen, 2007).
But don’t take our word for it. We asked three Roman members to tell us about their experience so you could learn about hair loss treatment from real users. LEARN MORE.

What’s something nobody ever told you about experiencing hair loss or about treating hair loss?
No one tells you how easy it is to ignore until it’s too late. I WISH someone would have told me to be proactive when I was younger so maybe I wouldn’t be fighting this battle now.
Walk us through a timeline of your treatment so far and what you’ve seen in terms of progress.
I saw results after about 2 months, my hair was coming in thicker and I was finally comfortable keeping it just a bit longer. Then about 5 months in, my hairstylist (shoutout to Dawn) was hyping me up saying how thick my hair had gotten and how much it had shown. Now, I am able to wear my hair quite a bit longer and actually style it, which is something I haven’t been able to do since undergrad!
Tell us about how you feel now that you’re treating hair loss proactively. Are you more confident? Are you skeptical? Excited?
I love it. I can experiment with my hair now. I don’t have to worry about dates noticing that I’m thinning, I’m not self-conscious in pictures anymore. It’s an amazing feeling to have one less thing to stress over.
Your friend is considering hair loss treatment with Roman and asks you for advice. What would you tell him?
[…] They truly want to help. Other places feel like they just want my money and could care less about the product I buy.

I never heard much about treating hair loss but it’s surprisingly simple.

I started to see a lot of hair with the follicle on my hands after running shampoo through my hair in the shower about two years ago. So I started to panic a bit watching my hairline rapidly moving farther away from my forehead […]. As a skeptic, I was surprised to see that within four months of starting treatment with Roman the hair loss completely stopped.

I was losing a lot of confidence watching my hair get washed down the drain every morning but after taking the medication the doctor recommended I started to feel my confidence start to come back. And now when I look in the mirror I feel good again, like I found a secret to keep me from aging.

Don’t wait because it’s worth every penny. And it’s not even that many pennies.

What’s something nobody ever told you about experiencing hair loss or about treating hair loss?
Nobody told me that so much of your self-confidence goes away, or that you may feel insecure… No one ever explained that treatment could be as easy as taking a single pill daily… I’m not sure about anyone else, but for some strange reason, I always felt that it was terribly expensive, or even required surgery to get your hair back.

Yes. When it [treatment] started, I lost so much hair that I thought I was doomed. I knew this was to be expected but it was still nerve-racking. Fortunately, within a few weeks, it started growing back, and even better, within six months my hair was already noticeably thicker. It’s been almost a year and a half now and my hair is thicker than it’s been in over a decade and the bald spot I was so worried about has shrunk by almost half.
Tell us about how you feel now that you’re treating hair loss proactively. Are you more confident? Are you skeptical? Excited?
I am confident that the treatments I have been doing have helped, and I am diligent to follow my routine daily. I was not sure what to expect at first, but I have been pleased.
