  In Archives, Hair Loss / By tbtshow / 15 February 2016

  It’s long been recognized that there is a clear correlation between our mental states and our physical wellbeing. In 1998 Spencer Kobren described the process of male pattern baldness as a “devastating disease of the sprit.” However, it was Sy Sperling who first brought this silent epidemic to light when he advertised to the nation that it’s okay to be concerned about one’s hair loss. In this clip Sy Sperling and Spencer Kobren discuss the reality of living life as hair loss sufferers and the profound positive effects that finding a solution for your hair loss can have on a person’s overall health.

• Sy Sperling: An American Icon

  In Archives, Hair Loss / By tbtshow / 11 February 2016

  When you think of some of the most famous, influential and recognizable people of the twentieth century, names like Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Albert Einstein, and Jonas Salk come to mind. However, while it might not seem reasonable to include a boy from the Bronx who made good in the hair loss business to a list of famous Americans that include the likes of Henry Ford or Irving Berlin, there is no doubt that Sy Sperling, Founder and former President of Hair Club for Men is a true piece of the fabric of American culture.

  In 2000 Sy Sperling was made an offer he couldn’t refuse. He sold the brand that he built from the ground up for $45 million and was asked to sign a 15 year non-compete agreement due to his household name status. Well, Sy’s non-compete expired and he decided to reach out to Spencer Kobren and The Bald Truth to talk about his journey and to reveal what it was really like to be the most famous, hair restoration client on the planet.

• Pandering – Online Hair Transplant Marketing Tactics

  In Archives, Hair Transplant / By tbtshow / 11 February 2016

  Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman discuss the very real issue of physician pandering, a tactic used by some in the field to win the favor and to appeal to vulnerable and usually young hair loss sufferers who frequent the various online hair loss message forums While the term is most notably associated with politics, there are physicians who are known to spend a great deal of time publicly expressing their views for the sole purpose of leveraging these very visible platforms to draw support and in turn generate more income by expressing views that do not necessarily reflect good scientific research or the responsible practice of medicine.
