all right
0:01
Soh you know losing your hair it's like
0:03
one of those things everybody worries
0:04
about right oh yeah and there are all
0:06
these options out there these days
0:08
definitely yeah tons of stuff and two of
0:11
the biggest names are hmns and keeps
0:14
right and so we're going to do a deep
0:15
dive today based on this video by The
0:19
Savvy Professor who breaks down like all
0:22
the differences between the two cool so
0:25
you can figure out you know which one is
0:28
going to be right for you yeah this is a
0:30
good one I mean people always ask me
0:31
about this you know hims versus keeps
0:33
like big one yeah what's the difference
0:35
it's like the Coke versus Pepsi of hair
0:37
loss treatments uhhuh yeah so right off
0:40
the bat like the biggest thing that
0:41
jumps out at me is just how different
0:43
their approaches are right absolutely
0:46
hims is like all about convenience they
0:48
want to make it as easy as possible you
0:50
can do everything online like talk to a
0:53
doctor through their website and then
0:54
boom they just ship the treatments right
0:56
to your door yep exactly no need to like
0:58
go to a doctor's office or anything
1:00
exactly who wants to sit around in a
1:01
waiting room you know nobody when you
1:03
could be like out there living your life
1:05
exactly but keeps on the other hand
1:08
they're they're a little more old school
1:09
about yeah they're a little more
1:10
traditional they want to make sure
1:12
you're actually talking to a doctor MH
1:14
get a prescription before you start
1:15
using anything right but their whole
1:18
thing is that like their ingredients are
1:20
stronger uhhuh and specifically they
1:22
talk a lot about this ingredient finast
1:25
Dr yeah so that's kind of the big
1:28
question right is like is that extra ra
1:30
step of getting a prescription worth it
1:32
yeah that's the big trade-off isn't it
1:34
convenience versus like the strength of
1:37
the ingredients totally and it's tough
1:39
because I mean everybody wants that
1:42
quick fix but sometimes that doesn't
1:43
mean you're getting the best results
1:45
right and that's where this finasteride
1:47
thing comes in right exactly because
1:49
it's not just some random ingredient no
1:50
it's not it's like a legit prescription
1:53
medication yeah it's serious stuff that
1:55
actually goes after the root cause of
1:57
hair loss Yeah so basically there's this
2:00
hormone called DHT DHT yeah I've heard
2:03
of that and it basically like shrinks
2:05
hair follicles over time so like the
2:07
little things that your hair grows out
2:09
of exactly and when they shrink your
2:10
hair gets thinner and you know
2:11
eventually you might start losing it all
2:14
together okay that makes sense and
2:15
that's where finasteride comes in
2:17
because it actually blocks DHT so like
2:19
stops that whole process from happening
2:21
yep it gives your hair follicles a
2:23
chance to like recover and grow back
2:25
stronger oh wow so it's not just about
2:28
like growing new hair it's about
2:29
protecting the hair you already have
2:31
that's a really good way to put it yeah
2:33
okay that's that's actually really
2:35
helpful to understand and you know that
2:36
savy Professor video he actually
2:38
mentioned this study where like 86% of
2:41
people who used fasid saw Improvement in
2:43
their hair growth 86% that's pretty
2:46
impressive it is and when you compare
2:48
that to monoxido which is another common
2:50
treatment for hair loss oh yeah I've
2:52
heard of that one too it only had a 42%
2:55
success rate in the same study oh wow so
2:57
it's like less than half is effective
2:59
yeah yeah so the difference is pretty
3:01
significant okay so those numbers
3:02
definitely make you think for sure but
3:05
before we like go all in on faside yeah
3:08
I'm curious about minoxidil too yeah
3:11
like what exactly is that stuff so
3:13
minoxidil Works in a different way it's
3:16
thought to widen the blood vessels on
3:19
your scalp okay so more blood flow to
3:22
the head right and that might help
3:24
deliver more nutrients to the hair
3:26
follicles I see so it's like giving them
3:27
a little boost exactly and the good
3:29
thing about minoxidil is that it's
3:31
available over the counter oh so you
3:33
don't need a prescription nope which
3:35
makes it definitely easier to get gotcha
3:37
so it's kind of like finasteride is
3:39
playing defense like stopping the hair
3:41
loss in its tracks yeah I like that
3:43
analogy and then minoxidil is playing
3:45
offense trying to stimulate New Growth
3:47
exactly that's a great way to think
3:49
about it cool so we've got the
3:51
convenience factor with hemms M and then
3:54
the potentially more effective
3:55
ingredients with keeps right but there's
3:58
another big piece of this whole PU right
4:00
the
4:01
C what's all this going to cost me yeah
4:04
because both of these are subscription
4:05
services so you're not just buying like
4:07
one bottle of something you're signing
4:08
up for like a whole plan exactly and
4:11
those costs can add up for sure and The
4:14
Savvy Professor he said that hims runs
4:16
between 24 and $44 a month uhhuh and
4:20
keeps is a bit pricier it's like
4:23
28 50 to 70 bucks a month yeah so it's
4:26
not exactly cheap no it's definitely an
4:28
investment it is but but you know I have
4:30
heard that sometimes these subscriptions
4:31
can actually be more affordable really
4:34
than like going to the doctor all the
4:36
time and paying for separate
4:37
prescriptions that's a good point you're
4:38
right what do you think I think you
4:40
might be on to something there because
4:42
if you factor in you know the cost of
4:44
doctor's appointments maybe you need
4:46
multiple prescriptions and just the
4:49
general hassle of it all totally like
4:50
driving there waiting around exactly
4:53
these Services could actually save you
4:54
money in the long run interesting so
4:57
it's like more to think about than just
4:58
like quick and easy versus strong
5:01
ingredients yeah it's more Nuance than
5:03
that you really got to weigh it all out
5:05
like how much are you willing to spend
5:08
each month you're right and potentially
5:10
for like a long time yeah because this
5:12
isn't a one-time fix you got to be
5:14
committed exactly so it comes down to
5:17
what's more important to you m is it
5:20
that hassle-free experience or are you
5:22
like laser focused on results even if it
5:25
means like jumping through a few Hoops
5:27
yeah are you a convenience person or a
5:29
result person totally and I think that's
5:31
a great point to end on but before we do
5:33
have one more thing do one more thing
5:34
okay me I think it's really important to
5:36
remember that this is just like a
5:37
general overview of course like we're
5:39
talking about convenience we're talking
5:41
about ingredients right but there's a
5:43
whole other layer to this yeah totally
5:45
like what about your individual health
5:48
situation mhm what if you're taking
5:50
other medications right are there any
5:52
interactions exactly like do those play
5:55
well with these treatments and what
5:56
about side effects oh yeah good point
5:59
some people people might be more
6:01
sensitive to certain ingredients than
6:02
others exactly so it's always a good
6:04
idea to do a little extra research for
6:06
sure talk to your doctor make sure it's
6:08
a good fit for you that's create advice
6:10
yeah so yeah ultimately the choice
6:12
between hims and keeps it really depends
6:14
on what you're looking for it does
6:15
convenience or potentially better
6:18
results right but don't forget to factor
6:20
in the cost and do a little digging on
6:22
those other factors too absolutely your
6:24
health is worth it couldn't agree more
6:27
well we hope this deep dive has been
6:28
helpful we did our best and uh good luck
