Youtube has been pitching me those videos as well recently, but they look like thinly veiled ads. Ever since I had a tiny bit of hair loss I just started shaving it all, and I'll never give up the convenience of a polished plate again.
I’m not really a fan of the bald look myself, so not something I’m keen on pursuing.
Eventually you may have to choose between:
...and realize the bald look isn't so bad.
I don’t have problem with hair, but I like shaving to #1.
Naw just shave it now. Seems like too much trouble for me, because I do not care.
Yeah, you’re better off just shaving it.
People will be able to tell you have a hair piece.
Same. I just stick with #2 on my trimmer. Lasts a few weeks before it's intolerably messy.
I would look into legitimate wig makers. Local is best. Choose the hair you want and don't live in fear.
I agree with others that best policy is to shave bold or very short. I do #1, because i find it most convenient.
If you really want to check the product it is best to go to product website (they usually promote and sell). Read their legal statements. Most of them will point there that product makes no claims of medical use, it is just a supplement, it is not FDA approved. It is for entertainment purposes only.
The legal small print on the website itself will tell you if you should buy or not. It protects website from liability and they gamble that most people don’t read it.
You will spend less time going through legal statements than looking for “other people’s unbiased opinion“ on internet. The latter may not even exist as products can be rebranded every 6 months.
