It wasn't until 1995 that Dr. Geno Marcovici began researching metabolic activities he noted with some natural botanical substances. One was the saw palmetto (a palm tree), another a type of grass.  Grape seeds were involved and so was green tea.  These particular substances all had one thing in common – they inhibited the metabolism that caused pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia resulting from high levels of DHT – dihydrotestosterone).  The problem was no one knew what safe yet effective combination to use them in.

 As the Director of Clinical Research for Advanced Restoration Technologies (based in Colorado) Dr. Marcovici has been involved in hair loss treatment and research for more than 10 years.  Needless to say he'd about seen it all when it came to hair loss and had a good grasp of the challenges people faced.   What he wanted was a reasonably priced product 100 percent safe, without the side effects commonly attributed to prescription medications, easy to use and suited for men and women.   What he eventually got was Hair Genesis, which took the market place by storm.

Pros and Cons:

The major pro of this product seems to be that it is natural and has no side effects.  It is also for both men and women, easy to use, reasonably priced and does a good job on pattern hair loss.

The con may be the fact that many people do have allergies to herbal products, and due to the number of herbals present in Hair Genesis, this might cause an allergic reaction.  Patch tests can certainly be used to try this product before using it.

Ease Of Use:

This is one of the easiest products on the market to use.  It comes in soft gel oral supplements, topical serum, shampoo and conditioner.  Almost a no brainer, these products sit on the edge of your tub, ready to go whenever you have a shower.  The oral supplements are just like remembering to take your daily vitamins – which is more or less what your are doing with Hair Genesis – taking daily vitamins for your hair.
