Is there a cheap and effective way of replacing falling out hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends.: If you mean temporary hair loss due to a medicine or stress or weight loss, it will usually grow back on its own. If you mean hereditary baldness, your only current options are a hair transplant or a hairpiece. As my father used to say, he who loses his hair early in life will have toupee for it. (rimshot, please...).
