I understand where you’re coming from and I’m confident that, I’m the future, there will be a solution for baldness — the market segment is too large to ignore.

I understand where you’re coming from and I’m confident that, I’m the future, there will be a solution for baldness — the market segment is too large to ignore.
Plus, I do believe people should be happy and having hair is a lifestyle improvement for most.
- j7ake 7y agoYour confidence is misplaced. From a business point of view they’re making more money now by managing symptoms than if it were possible to completely cure baldness.
- jamesrcole 7y agoAll that means is that there's a market opportunity for someone else to develop a cure and compete against them.
- bardworx 7y agoWhile the thesis of your argument is valid (based on US healthcare and their sentiment), your argument is, most likely, flawed. The premise is that a “cure” is a one time expense, hence why it’s less appealing than managing symptoms. However, in this particular case, I believe the cure will be similar to ED solutions: continued stream of income. Per the article, the amount of work to replace hair is costly. In addition, it requires follow ups and maintenance. Hence, between the multi-stage process and maintenance procedures, it will be a goldmine. In the future, a solution for baldness will, most likely, resemble skincare products or vision correction.
