Re: Who will find the cure to baldness?

I wish I could just step into a frozen chamber, rest/sleep without aging for 10 years, then wake up again and carry on with my life ... I can dream.

I would imagine in the future, when more effective treatments are available, that baldness will be cured or treated via a shampoo formula.

Re: Who will find the cure to baldness?

Never heard of Aderans until now. I bet this is many years from now? Like 10?

What I mean by cure is to have hair and hair growth like a non hair loss suffering person.
