You've heard the trademark phrase, "I'm not just the president, I'm also a client®", but how did Sy Sperling, Hair Club founder, come up with the idea to revolutionize the hair loss industry?
It began about 30 years ago, when then newly divorced Sy was looking for a way to deal with his hair loss and get back into the singles scene. As many who have been there know, when you suffer from hair loss, your self-esteem takes a blow. Sy decided to do something about it.
Sy's priority was to find a hair loss solution he could be completely comfortable with, and while solving his own problem, he realized his idea could benefit thousands of other men who also wanted a thicker, natural looking head of hair. Hair Club for Men® was born in 1976.
What began with the Strand by Strand® Bio-Matrix™ hair replacement system, has developed into a series of personalized hair loss solutions for both men and women more than 10 years ago.
With newfound confidence, Sy enjoyed a lifestyle transformation. "It was a chain reaction," he says. "I took a look at the rest of myself, and it gave me the motivation to change. I started jogging, and I learned to change my eating habits to stay healthy and fit."
