Shapiro MD is a hair treatment company that develops products to combat hair loss and baldness. The company's shampoo and conditioner are designed to combat dihydrotestosterone (DHT), blocking it and preventing the shrinking of hair follicles in the process.

Hair Loss Products and Treatments 

Shapiro MD's shampoo, conditioner, and foam are made out of three key potent, naturally occurring ingredients: saw palmetto berry extract (SPBE), epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), and caffeine derivative. This triple action formula was created by leading dermatologists Steven D. Shapiro M.D. and Michael T. Borenstein M.D. Ph.D., who have over 40 years combined in the clinical dermatology industry. After recognizing that the expensive and marginal hair improvement products on the market weren't satisfying their patients, they decided to create their own hair treatment solution. Ten years of product research and five years of product development on topical DHT blockers led to the development of their Shapiro MD patented formula.

Hair Care Products

Shapiro MD features a selection of shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in foam products which can be bought together or individually. All three of these products use Shapiro MD's patented triple action formula and are made in the U.S.A. Both shampoo and conditioner are sulfate-free.

The shampoo should be mixed well and applied onto wet hair, then left for two to five minutes before rinsing. After applying the shampoo, do exactly the same with the conditioner to your scalp. Then, rinse it off after one to two minutes. To apply the leave-in foam, pump once or twice to your palm, rub your hands together, and evenly distribute the product throughout your hair and scalp in the morning or evening. The foam is designed to be used once per day.

Prescription Medicine

As part of its comprehensive approach, Shapiro MD also offers hair loss sufferers the option of using the prescription medicine finasteride, a generic medicine more commonly known by the brand name Propecia. Finasteride also works to prevent the body from converting testosterone into DHT. It is one of only two prescription medicines that are FDA-approved for the treatment of hair loss. Finasteride only addresses male-pattern baldness and is not prescribed or effective for women.

The Shapiro MD formula attacks one of the most common causes of hair loss: dihydrotestosterone production. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a byproduct of testosterone that thins and shrinks hair follicles, becoming inactive and even outright killing them. Although other factors also contribute to hair loss, DHT production is generally considered one of its most common causes. The Shapiro MD formula blocks DHT production which then leads to a fuller, thicker head of hair.

For inquiries on usage and other information about the company's products, customers can contact Shapiro MD via phone number 7 days a week; Monday through Friday from 9AM to 9PM EST, Saturdays and Sundays from 9AM to 3PM EST. Customers can also reach the company via email or live chat.

BUYER BEWARE! Horrible customer service and this is a scam. I've called NUMEROUS times only to be placed on hold for HOURS. I've also tried the call back feature but never received a call back. I've emailed their customer support to cancel my order and future subscriptions only to get a reply stating they need to do this over the phone and can't confirm via email. WHAT? How do you want me to call when it's IMPOSSIBLE to get through? Also, a written notice is sufficient and I will pursue further action if I am not refunded and if my credit card gets charged again. DO NOT BUY!!! Save yourself the headache and stress.

Update to my previous comment. After sending a dispute to the credit card someone upper up from Shapiro called me and took care of all my grievances. Bottomline is Shapiro needs to review their charging practices and their customer service as clearly I am not the first to experience this.

I placed an order totaling $70 and this company charged my credit card $220. Luckily for me, my c.c. company refused to pay this fraudulent company of scammers who should be in prison.

please DO NOT BUY SHAPIRO MD... They have the worst customer service EVER. They pretend to ignore you when you want to cancel your order or membership. I tried and I got just 5 dollars in return, and then, I received a notification saying that my order was shipped already, ignoring totally the fact that I was super clear on my desire to stop receiving these products. With this poor customer service, they lose all possible credibility, so I would not be surprised if their products are not really tested or as effective as they say.
