Riken develops new method for culturing hair follicles

Promises for curing hair loss have promised for decades now-I’m not holding my breath!

Does it mess with testosterone levels like the current treatments?

@Jimizo, I do that too! My wife hates my long hair but when I ask her about bald guys, she says 'yada,' so, hair today, hair tomorrow, and hopefully, hair until the day I'm no longer here!

One of my sadistic pleasures is comparing my mop of hair to the baldies in my office and winding them up.

This is a Nobel prize-caliber discovery. If commercialized successfully, the medicine would put wig makers out of work.

Might be a good way to get Trump on side. He could be sporting an affro by Christmas.

Best way of dealing with baldness? Go with it - ditch the comb-overs!

About 25 million people in Japan suffer from hair loss caused by such reasons as medication side effects and male pattern baldness. 

Hope for all those oyaji with, what I like to call "bar-code hair" syndrome! Probably going to cost and arm and a leg once it gets to market!

Why is my tax money being spent on research to grow hair??

Because the government is probably the only one with the money! Private funding for research is pretty rare here!

PS Add to the list of "fake diseases" gray hair.

Why is my tax money being spent on research to grow hair??? Lots of companies spend lots of money to make us feel insecure about natural phenomena like hair loss, wrinkles, etc etc etc, and then sell us products that purport to "cure" these "diseases". What a waste.

A worthy cause!
