Hi there,
My question is, have you heard of ‘Hair Science International’? I went to see them last week here in Melbourne Australia and they say they can take a sample of my hair from the back and multiply up to 70,000 hairs in a lab and transplant however much I need back into my head and it will stay for ever. I’ve seen some of the results and in terms of coverage it’s great. But I don’t know how well this technology works in recreating the natural hairline and what kind of survival rate it averages.
Should I avoid them or is it worth investigating them more? Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thankyou.
Oh boy. What was that phrase that’s usually wrongly attributed to showman PT Barnum? Oh right… “There’s a sucker born every minute.” Regardless of who actually said it, it is probably a true statement.
If you were actually told these things, the hell with your hair, let’s buy the company and give Bill Gates a run for the richest man on Earth. I could go on all day with sarcasm, but if this company told you they could take a hair from the back of your head and multiply it to 70,000 hairs, then transplant it as needed (and their site says without surgery?)… then they’re either from the future or someone was giving you a line of bull.
My guess based on the photos on their site is that they sell fancy wigs and laser treatments. That’s the only way I could explain how they can call this “hair multiplication” but then in the same sentence say that it is non-surgical. Even then, they’re using “hair multiplication” in a completely misleading way. The technology doesn’t exist in the way you described. So either you misunderstood what they told you or they’re misrepresenting themselves. It’s not cloning or multiplication.

THEY SAY:
Hair Science International performs Non Surgical Hair Restoration procedures ranging from Cosmetic Follicle Replacement and Non Surgical Hair Transplanting to more complex procedures via the technology of the emerging science of Non Surgical Dermatological Epidermis applications.
Translated into English: They attach a wig to your head.
You are absolutely right it looks just like a wig. My advice to you is don’t do it! They use diffent words in order to mislead you. We were misled!! It doesn’t matter how many questions you ask, they always have an answer - a lie. Good luck!!
HAIR SCIENCE INTERNATIONAL OF MELBOURNE AUSTRALA - KEEP CLEAR OF THEIR OVERPRICED WIGS *** SCAM ***********SCAM***********
Hi All
I have read your threads below and I can confirm for you the following. SAVE YOUR MONEY. I visited Hair Science International In Melbourne Australia. I was told that from the one hair follicle that was taken from my head, 70 000 strands of my own hair would be regrown in America. Through vanity I was excited about the prospect and paid up BIG Mistake , What I recieved was a $70 hairpiece of inferior quality that is made in China. to confirm comments previous to this you are required to visit Hair Science Intertional every 4 weeks to have your hair re glued and washed at a cost of $70 a visit. Hair science Intertional continue the spin that it’s your own hair - I can tell you it’s not and the hair piece even has a serial number that signifies which country the hair piece it was produced in. Yes SPORTSMEN only endorse because they get it for free. PLEASE HEED THIS ADVICE KEEP AWAY FROM CLINICS LIKE THIS AND IF YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED SPEAK UP BETTER TO BE FOLLICLY CHALLENGED THAN FINACIALLLY CHALLENGED . There is no such position as a hair loss specialist. HAIR SCIENCE INTERNATIONAL OF MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA NO! NO! NO! - THEY DON’T GROW YOUR REAL HAIR - DONT EVEN VIST FOR A CONSULTATION - YOUR HAIR FOLLICLE CANNOT BE REGROWN INTO 70 000 HAIR STRANDS OF YOUR OWN.
PLEASE SPEAK UP
