Laser hats

[Fredy]

Are laser hats for hair growth and prevent hair loss legit?

Seems like a waste of time and money. There are vastly superior alternatives.

Avoid laser hats LLLT. They are very expensive with no offer at all.

IMHO, there is no clinical evidence to support anything beneficial in using these hats/helmets.

This.

Adding too many “treatments” is likely to reduce compliance. In other words people find it a hassle and give up or get lax with it. Better to take Propecia daily than wear a laser helmet, spend ten minutes a day rolling needles on your scalp, spraying miscellaneous lotions and potions, and miss out on Propecia a few times a week.

Keep it simple and stick to what we know works.

Completely agree. When too many things are added to your hair loss prevention regime than people are less regular with the most important part of regime ( fin and min ). I have done this by adding hair serums , oils  and hair masks, derma rolling , prp. But i got feeling of burn out by trying to do so much for hair and then didnt use my topical lotion of fin+min for 4-5 months and thinned in crown. I got some of it back but hair loss in those months was very aggressive due to covid.

I cannot change it but don't repeat the mistake. If laser worked then it would be in my regime. I searched for it again 3-4 months ago so i can just say that "hairmax combs" was the one whose study is used by other laser brands to show that laser therapy works. There was one more brand from china which used data of people through their app to show that they were happy with laser therapy. These studies are not enough though. Laser has to be standalone treatment in double blind trials to prove anything. Laser was FDA approved for just its safety.
