When the New York Times ran a headline last week that read An Old Medicine Grows New Hair for Pennies a Day, local doctors' offices started getting a lot of calls from men and women asking for the prescription. Braden Brignac, 22, is starting his career in the financial industry. So, casual clothes, and a baseball cap to cover his balding head, are no longer daily dress code. “People would make comments, and jokes, ‘You're a 19-year-old bald kid.’ So, stuff like that is just a little detrimental to your confidence,” said Braden Brignac. Dermatologist, and hair restoration specialist, Dr. Nicole Rogers started Braden a year ago on Finasteride. It's a male hormone blocker, but can take three to five years to see significant regrowth. So, earlier this year, she started him on oral minoxidil. “That's when it started blowing up. It looked great in comparison,” said Brignac.
