Oral Finasteride
Finasteride inhibits the Type II 5α-reductase enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT — the primary hormonal driver of androgenetic alopecia. Hair Scripts prescribes the standard 1mg dose with concentration adjustable based on your consultation.

Active Ingredient
All ingredients are optional add-ons unless specified. Your trichologist selects the combination based on your consultation.
Finasteride (1mg, dose adjustable)
A selective, competitive inhibitor of Type II 5α-reductase. At 1mg daily, finasteride reduces serum DHT by approximately 70%. Clinical trials show it halts progression of hair loss in ~86% of men and increases hair count vs. placebo. Hair Scripts can adjust the dose or recommend switching to dutasteride if additional suppression is needed.
The Hair Scripts Difference
Every formula is built to your biology.
Concentrations adjusted. Ingredients added or removed based on your consultation. No preset blends. No fixed formulas.
Any Concentration
Minoxidil at 5%, 8%, 10%, or higher — set by your trichologist after reviewing your SULT1A1 response test.
Any Ingredient Combination
Add a DHT blocker, a peptide, an anti-inflammatory, or a penetration enhancer. Remove anything that doesn't fit your biology.
Trichologist-Built
Not a chatbot. Not an algorithm. A licensed trichologist reviews your intake and designs your protocol.
Competitors like Happy Head lock you into preset blends. Hair Scripts treats mix-and-match compounding as the standard, not the exception — because hair loss is biological, and biology isn't one-size-fits-all.
