Gone are the days when men had no choice but to watch as their hairlines receded; and what used to be thick luscious locks thinned into sparse, weak strands. Today there are lots of hair loss products specifically made for men.
It can be difficult to sift through the numerous products in the market. It is easy to waste valuable time and money before settling on the best.
We have done the research for you and have come up with a list of the 7 best hair regrowth products for men.

Profollica System
Profollica’s hair growth system consists of growth supplements and an activating gel. Key ingredients are powerful natural ingredients such as millet extract, maidenhair fern, biotin, and L-cysteine which reduce the conversion of 5-alpha reductase to DHT.
It also fortifies the body with vitamins known to prevent hair loss as well as awaken dormant hair follicles to facilitate the growth of new hair.
If you order directly from Profillica, you can get a one-month, three-month, or six-month supply in a single package.
Rogaine Minoxidil Foam
Minoxidil is one of two commonly used hair loss drugs made for men. It is the primary ingredient in Rogaine, the brand name associated with these medications.
What does Minoxidil do? The interesting answer is that experts still can’t agree on exactly how it works to promote hair growth. Some say it increases blood flow to the scalp by causing dilation of blood vessels. Others say it works by increasing a specific enzyme called ATP in hair follicles, therefore lengthening the growth phase.
What is clear is that it works better to slow down or prevent hair loss rather than promote hair growth. Also worth noting is that it is not a quick-fix solution. When used as recommended it typically takes about six to nine months to make any notable improvement.
Purad’or Shampoo
Shampoo is an essential part of any hair care regimen. When you are trying to regrow your hair Purad’or’s hair thinning therapy shampoo should be part of your arsenal.
Its strength lies in three groups of ingredients that work together to stimulate growth while strengthening existing hair to prevent breakage.
The first is a combination of 15 DHT blockers including nettle extracts and saw palmetto. Second is a cocktail of exotic herbs and extracts like hibiscus, cedarwood, and clary sage which are said to strengthen hair from the root.
Argan oil, the last key ingredient, is an essential oil that contains phenols and antioxidants which strengthen hair follicles and stimulate cell production in the scalp. Vitamins in the oil ensure the production of thick, healthy strands which are not prone to breakage.
Finasteride
Apart from minoxidil, the other highly recommended drug for hair loss in men is finasteride. It comes in the form of a tablet taken orally and is most commonly available under the brand name Propecia. In the U.S Propecia is only available with a prescription although other brands can be purchased online after a virtual consultation.
Finasteride works by restraining the enzyme which converts testosterone to DHT, the hormone responsible for hair loss in men. It is different from minoxidil in that it acts by stimulating regrowth as well as preventing further loss.
This is why dermatologists and other experts often prescribe both minoxidil and finasteride to be used concurrently.
Pureauty Naturals hair serum
Serums are commonly used in skincare but are now making their way into the world of haircare. They are considered more effective than creams because, despite the small amounts used, the few drops are made of smaller molecules of concentrated ingredients which are absorbed into the skin faster.
Pureauty Naturals hair serum contains biotin as its active ingredient which works by stimulating keratin production in hair follicles for faster hair growth. Other ingredients include protein-rich pea sprout extracts which feed the scalp with essential nutrients.
With such a small amount of the serum in a bottle, you are probably wondering how hair serum should be used. It is best used by dropping 2 or 3 drops of the serum onto the scalp or onto your palm, then gently massaging it into the scalp in circular motions.
Nutrafol Men’s Hair Growth Supplement
Despite minimal science-backed evidence in support of supplements for hair growth, there is more than enough testimonial evidence in their favor. Many dermatologists say their patients have come back with impressive feedback after consistent use of supplements for hair regrowth.
This Nutrafol product comes highly recommended for men thanks to a unique combination of ingredients targeting male pattern baldness. Main ingredients include biotin, also known as vitamin B7 which stimulates the production of keratin and can improve the rate of follicle growth.
Saw palmetto, another key ingredient combats hair thinning by preventing testosterone conversion to DHT, the process behind male pattern baldness.
In the event that some of your hair loss is caused by extreme stress, bio-curcumin is included to deal with stress hormones associated with hair loss.
Biotopic Follicle Plus 27
Biotopic’s Follicle Plus 27 product comes in the form of an easy-to-use spray. It earns a place on our list because it serves the dual purposes of combating hair loss as well as thickening thin hair.
Spray a small amount of the product on a receding hairline and the rest of your hair and enjoy all-day treatment along with thicker, denser-looking hair for the rest of the day.
It is concentrated with 27 nutrients to stimulate hair growth and DHT blockers such as saw palmetto which serves to slow or stop hair loss.
Conclusion
These are a few of the top-rated hair regrowth products in the market. Whichever one you opt for, the one point to keep in mind is that hair regrowth is a gradual process requiring massive patience.
It is best to consult with a dermatologist before using any of these or similar products, and more so before using any two at the same time.
