The male hair loss products that are available today work best for the men who have not ignored their hair loss for too long. Loosing ones hair is not something that happens over night, going bald is a process that takes years to happen, and it is a fact that the longer you delay, the harder it becomes to stop or reverse hair loss.

The faster you take action to prevent hair loss the easier it is to reverse what you have lost. Men who begin using a hair loss treatment early maybe able to keep their hair, instead of going bald.

Keep in mind that wherever you still have hair it can be made thicker, there are men who had waited 5 or 10 years before starting any form of treatment that have been able to reversed their hair loss by using a combination of treatments. Any hair loss treatment you strat you should stay on for at least 6 months to a year, and if its producing good results you may need to stay on it for years.
Always remember that anywhere that hair is still growing you can make it thicker, and the faster you start a hair loss program the better chance you have of stopping or reversing your hair loss. If you have an area that is hairless and slick already the chances are it will not be able to produce hair again.

In most cases men are dealing with a combinations of slick and thinning, and you still can benefit if you get on a hair treatment program as soon as you can.

Men will begin to lose their hair in a number of different patterns. some of the more common patterns are a receding hairline at the temples, the vertex which is the crown on the back of the head, and something called diffuse thinning.

 It can also be a combination of all of these as well. The Hamilton-Norwood scale is used to classified male pattern baldness progression and uses a range from stages I to VII. The scale was produced in the 1950s by Dr. James Hamilton and later updated by Dr. O’Tar Norwood in the 1970s.

  1. stage 1 normal
  2. stage 2 receding
  3. stage 3 receding deeper into the temporal area
  4. stage 4 receding even deeper and a bald spot starting at the back of the head
  5. stage 5 same as above but hair density reduced
  6. stage 6 hair no longer present in the center of the head
  7. stage 7 hair all but gone

 
What stage are you at now?  What stage will you end up at if you do not take action now.
