Experiencing hair loss, whether thinning or shedding, can be a real knock to confidence, making people self-conscious of their appearance. While many turn to hats to cover up this development, which can often result from ageing, stress, hormones, illness, and lifestyle changes, others have sought the help of an affordable hair loss treatment brand whose results have left barbers impressed.

With plans starting at less than £1 a day or from £28 a month, Hims Hair is a hair loss treatment brand that uses doctor-trusted ingredients to help stop hair loss and promote new hair growth with its range of products. One reviewer claimed his barber accused him of having a hair transplant after two months of using Hims.

Stating in a review, he said: "After two months, my barber accused me of having a hair transplant! I'm 35, my father is bald, the crown of my head was very thin, I'd tried Regaine, and it didn't work, Hims saved me a trip to Turkey."

The brand offers a range of treatments to help tackle hair loss, from sprays and serums to oral chews and combo kits. The process of obtaining this treatment is also relatively simple, as it takes place online.

Potential users must take an online quiz to determine their hair needs, routine and goals. It's important to note, however, that while streamlined, the treatments require an online consultation with a healthcare provider, who will determine if treatment is appropriate. Then, if approved, the personalised treatments will be sent directly home.

For those who don't quite fancy going through the rigmarole of a consultation process, UKLash's hair growth serum has proven to be pretty effective in helping promote healthy, thicker hair growth. Costing £29 for a simple serum, the formula is a targeted scalp treatment that nourishes and protects the scalp with pea sprout extract, phytic acid, and turmeric.

Superdrug also offers a hair loss treatment plan, which can be found after completing a short medical questionnaire for one of its doctors to review. One such treatment is the Regaine For Men, £65.99.

One user of the brand shared their experience and said: "Between months four - five, the progress blew me away! I went back to the barber, and he couldn't believe it."

Someone else echoed: "Hims has really given me my confidence back. My scalp was no longer showing as prominently as it was before the application, and the fullness I had when I was younger started to reappear."

A third raved: "It has made me more confident. I am proud to show other people about it, especially people I know who are losing their hair."

"Within five months, I got my edge back and my hair and confidence is restored," added another fan of the brand.

While these reviews are pretty impressive, some people had issues with the spray bottles, saying: "Product itself is good, but the bottle cap keeps sticking and won't spray." That being said, for the most part, the hair treatments have proven a hit with a 4.39 average rating out of 1876 reviews, with many men in the reviews seeing a difference in their hair growth within a matter of months.

The treatment requires an online consultation with a healthcare provider to determine whether it is appropriate, and it's worth noting that restrictions apply. Find out more about the range of treatments by taking the Hims quiz.
