Hair loss affects over 60% of Americans, and it eats at your confidence, stress levels, and much more. On many occasions, people seek out prescription drugs to remedy their thinning hair or recently discovered bald spots. However, many doctors are hesitant to hand these out due to pills not only affecting your hair, but your whole body. It’s impossible for pills to target one area, so they attack the whole system. But let’s talk about what to do instead of taking prescription medicines, or even vitamins. 
Topical treatments are substances that you apply directly to the body or, in this case, the scalp. And not only do topical treatments for hair loss proven to reduce thinning and, in some case, regrow hair, they are plentiful. You can find different treatments such as oils, shampoos, and sprays. All of these treatments come in a variety of brands, with each brand claiming a whole bunch of different proven methods… some true, some exaggerated. But there are definitely benefits to topical treatments!
First, as previously mentioned, topical treatments are applied directly to the scalp. This is a huge benefit in terms of ease of application, but also in terms of knowing what you’re getting. Pills affect the entire body, while if you simply rub an ointment on your scalp, it will only affect the applied area.
Next, these products actually do work! Most are approved by the FDA, and you can read reviews, testimonials, and even videos of people who have used them, making them actually reputable. However, you should always do your research on any topical treatment.
Lastly, the simplicity and affordability of topical treatments way outweighs the prescription drugs. Prescriptions cost quite a bit, sometimes over $100. But topical treatments are at least half that cost most of the time, and can often time last longer. No need to take pills every morning from the pill bottle either. You can simply use a shampoo like you do with a regular shampoo, or rub the ointment on your scalp while getting ready.
These benefits may be objective, and each person will have their wants and needs and will need to evaluate those themselves. But topical treatments are a great way to start your journey of hair restoration.
