Exhibit A — the crime

It doesn't happen overnight. It happens by the strand.

A few in the sink. A few on the pillow. The photo from above you'd rather delete. The barber going quiet. By the time most men open the case, they've already lost ground they never had to lose.

The scene — fallen hairs
Scene of the crime · hairs recovered · 07:14

Here's the thing every man gets wrong: hair loss isn't bad luck. It's a crime with a method and a culprit, and the earlier you open the case, the more there is to work with.

Exhibit B — the usual suspects

You've already pulled these in for questioning.

Three things nearly every man tries first. We interrogated all three. Not one of them did the job.

Suspect 01The foam

The chemist's foam

Alibi: "I'm clinically proven"

Over-the-counter foam is one ingredient, at one shop strength, the same for every man who picks it up. It works on the follicle alone and never touches the hormone doing the damage for a job this size.

Suspect 02The cover-up

The cover-up

Alibi: "Look, it's fixed"

Fibres, powders and concealers hide the evidence, they don't touch the cause. It's a disguise, not a defence. First wash, first downpour, and the case reopens.

Ruled out
Suspect 03The transplant

The transplant

Alibi: "I'm the permanent fix"

£5,000+ and a flight abroad moves hair from the back of your head to the front. It does nothing to stop the thinning everywhere else, which is why clinics prescribe a topical treatment afterward anyway.

Ruled out
Exhibit C — the culprit

Every case traces back to the same name.

Wanted
DHT, the culprit
DHT
Dihydrotestosterone · hormone · repeat offender

DHT is a hormone. In men prone to hair loss it binds to the follicles around your hairline and crown and slowly strangles them. Every growth cycle, the hair comes back finer, shorter, weaker, until one cycle it doesn't come back at all.

It shrinks the follicle

Each cycle the follicle gets smaller and the hair it produces gets thinner.

It shortens the growth phase

Hairs spend less time growing and fall sooner, so coverage drops.

It never lets up

Foam, fibres and surgery were never going to arrest it. They were looking in the wrong place.

Exhibit D — the break in the case

One prescription, aimed at both ends of the crime.

Male pattern hair loss has two ends: the hormone driving it, and the follicle starved by it. Unthin Original is a prescription treatment spray aimed at both, and a pharmacist confirms the formula for your stage before it ships.

01
The supply line
Under a shrinking follicle, the blood supply that feeds each hair has been cut back. One end of the treatment is the follicle itself and what reaches it. Applied to the scalp twice a day, exactly where the crime happens.
02
The culprit
The other end is DHT, the hormone behind male pattern hair loss. Your prescription is decided by a GPhC-registered pharmacist after a short online consultation, so what is in the bottle matches your stage. Full ingredient, dosage and safety information comes with your medicine.

The Q&A

Loose ends.

Shop-bought foam is one ingredient at one strength, and it is the same bottle for every man. Unthin Original is a prescription: a pharmacist confirms the formula for your stage after a short online consultation, and it is aimed at the hormone behind male pattern hair loss as well as the follicle it starves.

Unthin Original is a topical spray applied to the scalp, not a tablet. A pharmacist reviews your medical questionnaire before anything is dispatched, full ingredient, dosage and safety information comes with your medicine, and you can message the pharmacy team with any concerns at any point.

Hair grows in cycles, so treatment is measured in months, not days. Your pharmacist will tell you what to expect for your stage and when to check in. It arrives monthly so there is never a gap.

Male pattern hair loss is ongoing, so treatment is maintenance rather than a one-off fix. You can pause, skip or cancel from your account at any time, and start again when you are ready.

Yes, and it's built into the process. You complete a short online medical questionnaire, a GPhC-registered pharmacist reviews it and signs off, and the treatment is dispatched. No GP appointment, no pharmacy counter.

Yes. Your plan renews monthly and you can pause, skip or cancel from your account. Delivery is free across the UK and the packaging is plain.
