What is Finasteride?
Finasteride is a prescription medicine used to treat male pattern hair loss. It is a DHT blocker. It lowers the level of DHT, the hormone that shrinks hair follicles in men with pattern hair loss.
Who is Finasteride for?
Finasteride is mainly used by men with male pattern baldness. It tends to work better when started early, while follicles are still active.
It is not for women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. They should not handle crushed or broken tablets.

Would recommend them any day. They are such a friendly community, very warm and kind when it comes to their service delivery and do not get me started on the results! They do deliver on what they say and I am absolutely grateful for their support in growing my hair back to what it is today! They did make my dream come true, and finally I can get to embrace who I am fully when I look at myself in the mirror. Thank you so much Hair Hub!
I thank God that after 2 gruesome years of scalp psoriasis, I have finally found a solution that works like magic. This was only possible with the services I got from Hair Hub at Bemuda Plaza, after years of spending so much money on other hair products on the market, all in vain. The first consultation I had was with Celestine Gitau and 3 weeks later I can say without a doubt that I no longer have any flaking or itching of the scalp and the inflammation has since reduced drastically.
Customer service before the procedure was smooth and engaging. The experts handled everything very professionally. 10/10 would recommend.
Their Jet Peel PRP technology is on another level. My hair is gradually coming back. I am happy.
Top notch service. Customer education is precise.
