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.

The customer service associated with ShapiroMD is very disappointing. The online site doubled the single order I made. I immediatedly called to cancel the wrong double order. The customer service rep had a very heavy accent and spoke so fast I could'nt understand her. She told me the double order was cancelled, but 10 days later I received 2 orders. I called and was told that even though it was the online site mistake, I still had to return the wrong order AND pay for shipping which cost me $16. The 2nd rep. said there was nothing she could do about their mistake and no refund would be made.

The reason only 2% of customers return is you have to return in 60 days BUT they tell you it takes 90 to start working ,,it just never starts working though !

I order (on-line),the monthly$69.95 shampoo plus conditioner.The site will not allow me to order online, as of yesterday.I informed the staff, said they have problems with the site, suggested call customer service.I refuse to order any more shampoo until this situation is resolved.Calling customer service is a way for this company to put on a monthly planner to order MORE products.Word to the WISE!!

I used the shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in foam for 9 months and no positive results. I did not leave the shampoo on my hair for 20 minutes as suggested and only left the conditioner for about 3 minutes, but who takes a shower for that long? A teenager, which Iā€™m not! But I did use the leave-in foam as directed.
