Social Trench

Diese Seite ist der Treffpunkt für alle, die beschlossen haben, den Lügen in der Welt der Haarprodukte ein Ende zu setzen.
Hier findest du alle Meldungen, die du uns über Unwahrheiten und Täuschungen der Marken schickst:
irreführende Aussagen, die nur dem Verkauf dienen, und manipulierte Bilder, die Illusionen erzeugen.

Diese Seite steht für unseren gemeinsamen Kampf gegen ein FALSCHES System, das den Profit über die Wahrheit stellt und den persönlichen Gewinn über den Respekt vor anderen Menschen. Marketing bedeutet nämlich nicht, sich über Menschen lustig zu machen – Marketing sollte informieren, nicht täuschen.
Der Zweck dieses „Social Trench“ besteht tatsächlich in der gegenseitigen Verteidigung – eure Meldungen werden anderen Menschen helfen zu erkennen, was echt ist und was nicht..

⚠️ACHTUNG: Wir werden niemals die Wirksamkeit oder die Qualität der Produkte beurteilen.
Das ist nicht unser Ziel und es wäre nicht korrekt, da wir selbst auch Produkte haben.
Wir werden uns darauf beschränken, Behauptungen zu widerlegen, die objektiv falsch sind – ohne Möglichkeit der Interpretation.
Auf dieser Seite werden wir also NUR die Werbung oder Informationen veröffentlichen, die diese Unternehmen auf ihren sozialen Medien, in ihren Werbungen oder auf ihren Websites verbreiten, und zwar nur, wenn sie zweifellos falsch sind, nur wenn das, was wir schreiben, in keiner Weise angreifbar ist.

Melde uns Inhalte, die: 
🎭 Sie verfälschen die Realität mit unmöglichen „Vorher-nachher“-Bildern.
🗞️ Sie geben gesponserte Artikel als unabhängige redaktionelle Beiträge aus.
📱 Sie verbreiten offensichtlich irreführende Informationen über soziale Netzwerke oder Websites.

Wenn eine Werbung schamlos lügt, werden wir sie veröffentlichen. Ungefiltert und in alphabetischer Reihenfolge. Das ist unser „Social Trench“ – ein Ort, an dem man sich gegenseitig hilft, wo Transparenz mehr wert ist als Profit. Eure Meldungen werden Licht ins Dunkel bringen und anderen helfen, bewusst zu wählen.

WIR WISSEN, WAS IHR DENKT …

Es gäbe vieles, was ihr und wir gerne gesagt hätten – aber wir werden es nie sagen. Jetzt kennt ihr das Thema, fühlt euch als Experten und wollt auch die Produkte bewerten. Aber wir sollten darüberstehen: Eure Meinung zu den Produkten und ihrem Nutzen – behaltet sie für euch. Meldet uns bitte nur, wenn es Unstimmigkeiten in der Kommunikation gibt.

Aber eine lustige Meldung wollen wir euch doch erzählen – natürlich ohne Namen zu nennen:
Es gibt eine Marke, die Produkte zur „Haarneuwuchs“ anbietet und auf allen sozialen Netzwerken mit übertriebenen Werbungen und „sensationellen“ Ergebnissen wirbt – dank ihrer geheimen Formel, die natürlich nur sie besitzen. Sie behaupten sogar, dass man keine Haartransplantation mehr braucht, weil ihre Produkte das komplett ersetzen können. (Kennt ihr diese „magischen Seren“, bei denen man nicht mal genau weiß, was eigentlich drin ist – mit Namen wie „Hyper Super Sayan Transformation Bio Organic Serum“?).

Dank dieser Werbung (und dank der verzweifelten Konsumenten, die ohne nachzudenken kaufen), hat dieses Unternehmen Millionenumsätze erzielt – so sehr, dass sogar eine Investmentgesellschaft ein paar Millionen Euro in sie investiert hat.
Natürlich ist diese Nachricht in den Online-Wirtschaftsmedien erschienen, und im Artikel war auch ein Foto von einem der Gründer der Marke zu sehen. Wollt ihr wissen, wie sein Kopf aussah? GENAU SO:

 

Aus Datenschutzgründen hätten wir natürlich niemals das echte Foto gezeigt – also haben wir eine kleine Zeichnung gemacht. Aber ihr könnt euch sicher vorstellen, was wir gedacht haben, quando wir dieses Foto gesehen haben…
Genau das, was ihr gerade auch denkt…

Natürlich muss jemand, der eine Firma für Haarprodukte hat, nicht unbedingt selbst Haare haben – das ist klar. Aber es geht darum, euch zu zeigen, wie solche Marken von euren Unsicherheiten leben.
Sie sprechen von großartigen Ergebnissen, um euch zum Kauf zu bewegen – obwohl sie selbst nicht einmal von diesen „Wundern“ profitieren.

Wenn du ein Produkt mit „sensationellen Ergebnissen“ bewirbst, von Haarneuwuchs sprichst und es sogar mit einer Haartransplantation vergleichst, dann solltest du wenigstens selbst der erste Testimonial sein – mit einer ordentlichen Mähne und nicht mit zwei Härchen auf dem Kopf. Das wäre nämlich ein Zeichen dafür, dass deine Produkte nicht nur nicht wirken, sondern dass du wahrscheinlich auch keine Ahnung vom Thema hast – geschweige denn von echten Medikamenten.

Fragt uns nicht nach dem Namen, wir werden euch NIEMALS sagen, wer es war – auch weil es keine Rolle spielt. Aus unserer Sicht sind sie mehr oder weniger alle gleich: Wenn jemand übertriebene Versprechen macht, dann ist das nicht in Ordnung – selbst wenn man die besten Produkte der Welt hat.

An erster Stelle findest du immer die Analyse zu Hair Army – damit dir, falls es dir noch nicht aufgefallen ist, die enormen Unterschiede zum Rest ins Auge springen.
Alles Weitere findest du in alphabetischer Reihenfolge.

HAIR ARMY

Crediamo sia giusto, visto che analizzeremo la comunicazione degli altri che ci andrete a segnalare, analizzare anche quello che facciamo noi, mostrarvi la nostra trasparenza in un mercato problematico.
Speriamo che un giorno il marketing di molte aziende possa cambiare e che emerga un mondo più onesto, ma questo accadrà solo quando le persone si sveglieranno e smetteranno di cadere nelle trappole della pubblicità.

Iniziamo dai nostri annunci sui social media: 📱


Ogni post o video promozionale è pensato per educare, condividendo conoscenze che spesso le persone ignorano, informazioni che potrebbero davvero migliorare la vita delle persone.
Le nostre campagne hanno sempre comunicato messaggi come: “Non è la caduta dei capelli a causare la calvizie ma è un processo di miniaturizzazione a causarla”, oppure “La causa dell’alopecia androgenetica e i suoi trattamenti sono stati scoperti anni fa.”
Tutti i nostri post pubblicitari nel corso degli anni sono stati sempre questi, magari cambiava un po’ l’immagine, il testo, magari ogni tanto pubblicavamo qualcosa di divertente, ma mai e poi mai sono state presenti immagini prima e dopo.

Per essere chiari: le foto prima e dopo sono sempre fuorvianti.
Le uniche aziende che dovrebbero usarle sono le cliniche di trapianto, e non le troverai sul sito di Hair Army per una ragione ben precisa: Non esiste alcun prodotto in grado di far ricrescere i capelli su una testa calva.
Perfino i farmaci ad oggi conosciuti (ne parliamo in homepage) agiscono fermando la problematica, non come sostituzione ad un trapianto (ricordatevi ovviamente che viceversa neanche il trapianto sostituisce le cure perchè bisogna curarsi anche in caso di trapianto).
Certo, è possibile notare qualche miglioramento nel tempo e, sebbene molti clienti ci inviino foto che mostrano miglioramenti (e quelle foto sono reali), condividerle sarebbe comunque fuorviante questo perchè qualcuno potrebbe vedere quelle immagini e aspettarsi risultati simili, anche se, nel suo caso, ciò potrebbe non essere possibile.
Una persona che vede quelle foto, si curerebbe con l’obiettivo di avere una ricrescita di capelli che magari per il suo caso non può avere.

📌 Cose fondamentali da ricordare per comprendere il concetto:

  • Alopecia ANDROGENETICA vuol dire ANDROGENI + GENETICA. 
    Quindi è la genetica a decidere quanto è forte la propria alopecia androgenetica.
    Ci sono persone il cui problema è meno forte e persone il cui problema è più forte (ed è per questo che il nostro prodotto contiene tutti i principali ingredienti naturali anti DHT in un’unica formula: un complesso senza eguali al mondo).
    Quindi in alcune persone può verificarsi un graduale miglioramento o ispessimento, tende ad accadere, ma non è garantito per tutti.
    L’obiettivo deve essere chiaro, fermare l’avanzamento del problema e non sperare in miracoli.
    Se mettessimo quindi foto prima e dopo inevitabilmente attireremmo aspettative e qualcuno potrebbe rimanerci male se non ottiene lo stesso risultato di un’altra persona.

  • Il ciclo dei capelli.
    Nella homepage spieghiamo il ciclo del capello (se non l’hai studiato, torna alla homepage).
    Per gli uomini, il ciclo dei capelli (crescita, caduta, ricrescita) dura dai 2 ai 4 anni a causa del rapido metabolismo del DHT e del lento metabolismo dell'estrone.
    Per le donne, dura dai 3 ai 7 anni a causa del rapido metabolismo dell'estrone e del lento metabolismo del DHT.
    Questo spiega anche perché le donne hanno generalmente i capelli più lunghi.

Quindi spiegaci: viste queste tempistiche, come possono alcune marche promettere risultati in poche settimane o mesi? Persino i capelli trapiantati impiegano almeno un anno per mostrare risultati definitivi, e si parla solo di crescita!
Quindi come puoi pensare che quelle foto, con risultati migliori di un trapianto e in tempi minori, siano davvero reali?

Un’altra cosa che non troverai mai nelle nostre pubblicità, sono informazioni false atte a confondere le persone e a creare ancora più disinformazione di quella che già non ci sia nel settore.
Questo accade secondo noi anche perché i brand stessi che vendono quei prodotti per la ricrescita, non conoscono tutto quello che vi stiamo spiegando e pur di immettere dei prodotti sul mercato e vendere, si inventano cose inesistenti.
Quindi approfittiamo di questa spiegazione, per chiarire un’altra cosa una volta per tutte:

No, lo stress non ti fa diventare calvo.

Lo sappiamo, molti brand ti dicono questo, siamo tutti stressati in questo mondo moderno pieno di impegni, nessuno diventa calvo per lo stress.
Sicuramente ha la sua influenza nell'accelerare il processo, questo non lo mettiamo in dubbio, ma non esiste che possa causare la calvizie (mancanza irreversibile di tutti i capelli della testa).
A causare la calvizie, è un problema che si chiama alopecia androgenetica, è una cosa già scoperta, non dobbiamo inventarci nuove teorie.
Ovviamente esistono anche altri problemi che colpiscono i capelli (ad esempio l’alopecia areata, una patologia autoimmune che causa delle chiazze tonde ben definite senza capelli, puoi guardare immagini su internet), ma questi generalmente non causano calvizie.
Quindi quanto senti dire ad un brand che a causare la calvizie possono essere tante cose, vuol dire che quelli non sanno nulla e stanno dicendo delle cose a caso e luoghi comuni, la calvizie comune che colpisce gli uomini, è l’alopecia androgenetica.
Qualora non fosse chiaro, neanche fare lo shampoo rende calvi, lavatevi i capelli tutte le volte che volete.
Dopo tutte queste spiegazioni, scommettiamo che anche altre aziende inizieranno a copiarci e a parlare di DHT e di altre cose che hanno imparato dal nostro sito web spacciandosi per esperti…

Parliamo ora del sito web: 💻

Nel sito è presente un articolo di GQ (magazine online) in cui veniamo nominati, è specificato anche che non è un articolo sponsorizzato, perchè?
Lo abbiamo specificato perché i marchi espongono i loghi e dicono "stanno parlando di noi su [giornale]", quando in realtà si tratta solo di contenuti sponsorizzati.
Chiunque può pagare per apparire su una rivista, si tratta di creare l'illusione di un'innovazione rivoluzionaria.
Abbiamo anche pubblicato uno spot su Prime Video, che ovviamente non è un giornale, ma un annuncio a pagamento.

Nelle pagine dei prodotti, tutto è elencato in modo chiaro, senza nomi misteriosi o etichette vaghe.
Nella pagina del Complex è presente la parte di etichetta con la lista ingredienti che indica sia la quantità esatta di ogni ingrediente che la percentuale di titolazione.
Nei due prodotti liquidi (shampoo e lozione) invece è presente la percentuale esatta degli attivi principali.
Cose che forse nessuno al mondo fa, alcuni ti dicono che usano una loro formula segreta, altri ti dicono il nome di qualche ingrediente ma non ti indicheranno mai la percentuale.

Per concludere, il sito contiene informazioni che possono cambiare la vita della gente, informazioni che permettono di imparare molto sui propri capelli e sul proprio problema.

Noi non abbiamo inventato nulla, non abbiamo fatto nessuna scoperta innovativa o rivoluzionaria, nessun siero magico e nessuna formula segreta, assolutamente nulla.
I nostri prodotti sono molto semplici, un complesso di antidht (attualmente il più completo esistente e venduto ad un prezzo bassissimo).
Ed una lozione ed uno shampoo il cui attivo principale è stato scoperto da altre persone, puoi saperne di più su di esso visitando la pagina ingredienti.

Ci teniamo inoltre a precisare che rifiutiamo categoricamente collaborazioni o pagamenti a medici per promuovere i nostri prodotti. Pertanto, se un medico vi ha prescritto i nostri prodotti, lo ha fatto in piena buona fede e senza alcun interesse commerciale.

Questo è Hair Army, nessuno prima d’ora è mai stato come noi.
Infatti anche qui, scrivendo, siamo finiti per spiegare un sacco di cose utili.😅
UNISCITI A HAIR ARMY, studia il sito e aiuta gli altri a scoprire la verità.
E ricorda: se non sei sicuro di cosa fare, la cosa migliore è sempre parlare con un bravo medico.

 

 

AROMA ZONE

You reported a promotional post whose photo contains the text: +3900 new hairs. 
Then in smaller text on the side: instrumental test using a trichogram and tricoscan for 90 days on a total of 20 people.

As of today, is it possible to create new hair on someone’s head? NO, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
Even hair transplantation involves taking hair from an area where it still grows and relocating it to where it doesn’t.

Therefore, this advertisement ends up in our SOCIAL TRENCH because the claim might mislead someone into believing it’s possible to grow new hair where it's missing.
So saying that using certain products can create new hair is simply incorrect.

BALLANGI

As shown in the image below, you reported a video from this brand in which a woman wearing a lab coat says the classic, very incorrect statement we’ve seen in other reports—namely, the comparison with hair transplants.

Since their video is extremely long, we’ll only include the parts we believe are most misleading and could lead you to make incorrect evaluations:

1. I’m here to tell you that there’s an innovative and truly effective solution—this company has made a revolutionary discovery.
If you check the ingredients in this shampoo and serum (rosemary, caffeine, and saw palmetto), they’re the same ingredients everyone already knows. So, no new innovative discovery has been made—nothing new. Saying they’ve made a revolutionary discovery is, in our view, absolutely misleading.

2. Unlike painful transplants with long recovery times—not to mention the cost—Vitalcrinis takes a smart approach. The shampoo and serum work by awakening dormant follicles and bringing them back to active growth. Science says so.
NO, science has never said that follicles "sleep”.
Much less that they can be “awakened” using a shampoo or serum.
So once again, as we’ve done with other reports, we strongly repeat: it is currently not possible to regrow hair by replacing transplants with products. Saying something like this is very wrong, and that’s why it’s right to report it on this page.

As always, we clarify that we do not analyze the products, and we do not know their usefulness or effectiveness.

FOLIXAN

You’ve reported some videos and a webpage featuring a certain Dr. Chiara Liguori, a Swiss dermatologist and trichologist who sells a product branded as FOLIXAN.
In case it wasn’t already clear—although it’s pretty obvious to those with experience—this person does not exist. So let’s call it what it is: a scam.
It’s pointless to even highlight the usual fake photos and reviews—they’re not worth the effort.


It’s probably an affiliate/network marketing product (check out the analysis of the FOLTINA PLUS brand to understand what that means).
Therefore, other pages may appear in the future, possibly with the names of different doctors or pharmacies, promoting the same FOLIXAN product.

But I'd like to draw attention to a detail that many people missed, a cheeky jab at these scammers:

They gave the doctor the last name “LIGUORI” (which in Italian sounds like “liquor”), and if you check the address listed on the website where this doctor supposedly works, you'll discover it's actually a bar.
So yes, they’re fraudsters—but at least they had a sense of humor when coming up with that detail.

FOLTINA PLUS

You've reported an ad for a product that allegedly makes hair grow back for bald people in 7 or 14 days, without the need for a transplant.

We're only posting 3 images, obviously that medical doctor in the picture doesn't actually exist, but many of you may have noticed that the same product seems to be sold by countless social pages, all claiming to be the official one:

Not only that—if you search on Google, you’ll see tons of websites, all obviously claiming to be the official site:


So how is this even possible?
Why are there all these social media pages and websites for the same product/brand?

To understand it, we need to talk about affiliate marketing (also known as network marketing).
Put simply, to make it easier to understand: there are people (usually young individuals who have been brainwashed into believing they can get rich quickly) who register with these networks.
These are companies that promise small commissions to participants for every product sold.

This is a widespread issue that affects all areas of online sales—not just hair products.

So each person tries to sell the product in every possible way to earn their commission. That means each of them can create a Facebook page, Instagram account, website, etc.—anything that helps promote the product.

Usually, since it's a matryoshka-style system where it's hard to trace the real organizers, these people end up committing outright scams—like in this case, where they claim the product can replace a hair transplant in just 14 days.

We hope this explanation of network/affiliate marketing has been helpful.
If you'd like to learn more about dropshipping or private label, check out the report from the LABORATORIO TRICOLOGICO ITALIANO.

HAIR LOSS SECRETS

You've reported several videos from the social media page HAIR LOSS SECRETS—classic ads claiming miraculous hair regrowth and results that even medications can't achieve.


So what happens when you click on these videos? A questionnaire pops up.
It doesn't matter what answers you give—the result is always the same: they recommend their product, even if you're completely bald.
We've included a photo of this questionnaire because we want you, after seeing it, to check out the report on MYRA BIOTECH. You'll notice it's practically the same questionnaire—absolutely identical, with only the name at the top changed.


In any case, the final product page leads to the brand SPARTAN. So to fully understand this analysis, first check out the section on SPARTAN, then go to LABORATORIO TRICOLOGICO ITALIANO to read the full story—this way, we won’t have to repeat ourselves.

HILARIA

You've brought to our attention this brand that runs many sponsored ads using various newspaper articles from different media outlets, all talking about a new innovative discovery for hair regrowth, often under the heading: “THEY TALK ABOUT US.”
But not only that, even on their website they wrote:
"Who talks about us? Just a few of the media outlets that mentioned us after publishing our research and introducing an innovative formula to the trichology market."
As shown in the second image, written in Italian.

Naturally, these are sponsored articles, which the ads attempt to disguise as independent editorials…

As always, we want to clarify that we don’t know anything about this brand’s products—whether they’re good, effective, or anything else. Only you can judge that for yourself.

However, as stated on this page, we believe that this type of advertising is misleading to people, because it gives the impression that these articles were independently written by the newspapers due to some new scientific discovery.

LABORATORIO TRICOLOGICO ITALIANO

This so-called Italian trichological laboratory doesn’t exist; the name is completely made up. Nor do the products of this brand exist, It’s a dropshipping business using private labeling.
The video you reported to us—clearly AI-generated and poorly dubbed by an AI—shows unbelievable and obviously false things.


We need to take a step back and explain something fundamental first:
There’s a method of selling used by some people called DROPSHOPPING. It means that people go to low-cost product websites like AliExpress, find items there, and create a site where they sell these products at inflated prices to unsuspecting buyers. In fact, you’ll find others doing the same scam with the same products but using different brand names.
see how much this product really costs on aliexpress:

You’ll find the same product here in the SOCIAL TRENCH if you search for the name "SPARTAN" in the list.
In fact, in the photo below, taken from the site of this fake brand, you can also see the name Spartan—precisely because they’re using the same images.
Some even have their name or logo printed on the product, this practice is called “private label,” which means taking a ready-made product and inserting your own invented brand name on the label, pretending to be a legitimate brand.

Let’s wrap up with the classic photos that are always recycled. The savvier ones generate them using AI, while others just grab them off the internet—like in this case, where the same photo can be found everywhere:


I hope this teaches you to stop asking for before-and-after photos and start studying and asking for information that’s actually useful for research.

LUEMA

By chance, this report came in later — but it’s the exact same product from AliExpress that we already covered on NEWSPARKINGS.
So head over to the section mentioned to read the full analysis.
The only difference here is that they’ve used private label branding: they’ve changed the label and added their own name.

That said, we’d like to focus on one very important photo we’ve included below: As you can see, this is a serious issue — because you, the consumers, rely on this kind of content to make purchasing decisions. You want fake photos and videos — and if they’re not there, you even ask for them — rather than asking for actual text to study…

We truly hope that all the explanations provided on our site help you learn about the topic and avoid falling for this kind of stuff, pushing you to become more informed individuals.

LUMA

Third report concerning the same dropshipping product.
To avoid repeating ourselves, please follow this sequence carefully: First, read the LUEMA section, then the NEWSPARKINGS section. After reading both, everything will be clear regarding this new report as well.

MYRA BIOTECH (NUVIA BIOTECH)

You reported a video—an image of which you can see above—featuring a man named Marco, who is part of Myra Biotech. He says: “Are you thinking about a hair transplant or shaving your head?... wait, there's something you should know: dormant follicles can be reactivated.” He also claims the secret isn't in medications, but in their lotion.
No, follicles are not “sleeping,” they're not tired… and no, they cannot be “awakened” by either a drug or the lotion they make. In fact, there is currently nothing that can give a bald person their hair back.

Let’s go on: if you click on this video, a questionnaire with multiple-choice questions appears, asking for your condition. It doesn’t matter what you select—the outcome is always the same: use their product.
We selected that we are bald:

Then a message appeared saying that, based on what we had written, they were customizing the formula just for us (which is obviously not true—the product that comes out is always the same):

Of course, they couldn’t leave out the false claim about having sold to millions of people—which is completely untrue—along with fake photos generated by AI:
All this mess, which forced us to collect all these images, just to finally get to the product page—which turned out to be the classic turmeric lotion (Capilia Longa, an ingredient made famous by numerous Scandinavian Biolabs ads) along with other ingredients.
On the page, there’s no shortage of: Fake before-and-after photos (they didn’t even bother generating new ones with AI—these are the same ones that appeared in other reports we’ve discussed in our SOCIAL TRENCH page). To make it easier for you to understand, we’ll include a screenshot using Google’s reverse image search feature::
The usual static image claiming there are tens of thousands of reviews, but they didn’t even bother to fake them all—since it’s just an image, none of them are actually readable (except for about a dozen, clearly written by them, given there’s no form to submit a review):
The image below is the same one used by "Spartan" and "Laboratorio Tricologico Italiano"—feel free to check out the related reports.

There are so many red flags that we should really include a screenshot of the entire website—though we can't, since each image slows down our site, and we've already used too many for this report.Still, here's one more red flag you shouldn't fall for: the classic comparison with a hair transplant.

However, we’ll leave you with one last image featuring the name of a fictitious doctor who recommends using their product. This image may be useful if you decide to file a fraud report with the appropriate authorities—especially if you purchased this product hoping it would replace a hair transplant and help your hair grow back.

We’ll wrap up this analysis with a message for everyone—no matter which country you're reading from, there's one constant across all these reports from around the world: the famous “satisfaction or your money back” guarantee.This policy, along with the before-and-after photos and other nonsense, are exactly the things you ask for. In a way, it's like you’re setting yourselves up—because instead of actually learning about a topic that should matter to you, you keep looking for shortcuts to avoid exercising your mind. Hopefully, all these reports help you understand that the only thing you truly need is knowledge. Read, research, STUDY.

NATURALÉ

We usually speak out with great moderation, but in this case the word scam can definitely be used without hesitation.

In the screenshot below, you can see they mentioned a medical doctor from New York who obviously doesn't exist and is supposed to tell you why you should buy this product.
This situation can absolutely be reported to the authorities as fraud.
Of course, it also features the typical before-and-after images and the usual flood of reviews—thousands of them.
Too bad those reviews are just part of an image that claims there are thousands, but you can't even click to read them... They clearly didn't even bother to write any. 😅


If you’ve been following the previous updates on this page, you’ve already noticed that the product is VERY similar—as shown in the photo—to the one featured in the NOVAMANE section.
Feel free to check out that analysis (NOVAMANE) if you haven’t done so yet.

NEWSPARKINGS

You've already reported two videos featuring guys who say they used this product and experienced hair regrowth in six months.

To avoid wasting time analyzing the entire website — which, unsurprisingly, is filled with the usual before-and-after photos and so on:


 it’s quicker to just tell you: this isn’t even a hair product brand. It’s a dropshipping site. In fact, if you visit the homepage, you'll see tons of products from completely different categories:

 

For those unfamiliar with dropshipping, it’s a business practice that involves finding low-cost products on AliExpress and reselling them at a higher price on one’s own website, pretending it’s a custom-made product — tricking unsuspecting consumers. In fact, we found the exact same product on AliExpress in just a few seconds:

And for those wondering why two guys seem to rave about this product, the reason is simple. There are people who work as UGC creators — basically the actors you see in those videos. We even use them sometimes to create content.

The problem with some UGC creators is that they’ll say anything if you pay them. That’s a shady practice — luckily, not all of them do it, but a good portion of them do.

NOVAMANE

You've reported yet another brand that claims to have created a formula for hair regrowth that eliminates the need for a transplant…
Obviously, as already explained in other analyses on this page:
No, it's not currently possible for a product to replace a hair transplant.
If you're bald, it's pointless to look for shortcuts — in that case, you should consider a transplant, keeping in mind that post-transplant care is still necessary.
So we consider this kind of communication to be misleading towards people, because it explicitly claims something that, as of today, is scientifically impossible.

They also claim that you'll see results within a week. Obviously, we're not judging the products themselves, but rather the communication. But considering that the hair cycle in men lasts between 2 to 4 years, how is it even possible to see results in just one week?🤷
The photos are absolutely fake, made with AI:


In addition to the fake photos, it also says that the product is about to run out, only 3 units left. It’s meant to create a sense of urgency — and that, too, is a falsehood.


We’ve gotten this far with just a quick glance, and as you can see, we’ve already found what seem to be some rather fake claims.
Do you see now why the SOCIAL TRENCH was born? Is it really fair, in your opinion, to spread all these falsehoods just to sell?

We're not judging the product — that’s not our intention. We don't know what these products are for or if they might actually be useful for some of you.
But everything we mentioned above is obviously clear to anyone familiar with the web. Still, not everyone knows how to spot AI-generated photos or exaggerated information.
So please keep supporting this page with your reports.

Lastly, we don’t know where these products are made — but interestingly enough, we noticed that Alibaba sells a very similar item where you're allowed to add your own brand name. Of course, it might just be a coincidence.

SCANDINAVIAN BIOLABS

This is a very large brand that spends a lot on advertising, and you've pointed out a few things to us.

The first is the ad comparing their product to hair transplants:

We’re obviously not interested in assessing the effectiveness of their products, but creating an image that compares a transplant to their product as an alternative is, in our opinion, misleading.
Because, we repeat: THERE IS NO WAY TO REPLACE A HAIR TRANSPLANT WITH PRODUCTS.
If you're bald, you can buy the best product in the world, but your hair won't grow back—and you can't replace a transplant if you're bald.
So accept this fact, don’t look for shortcuts.
If it’s too late for you, then you need to consider a transplant.

We therefore believe that writing “HAIR TRANSPLANT? HARD PASS!” and listing the pros and cons of their product as a substitute misleads people into believing they don’t need a transplant if they use those products. It’s fair to call out the inaccuracy of this messaging.

 

Then, on the website, you see the usual newspaper icons—which always aim to give authority to a brand and make it seem like the press is talking about them because they’ve uncovered something newsworthy. We didn’t check all the outlets mentioned because they list quite a few, but whe checked the first and as you can see in the image below, that’s a sponsored article—yet they present it as an independent editorial.

 

Let’s also take a moment to debunk the famous “CLINICALLY TESTED” myth.
This phrase is everywhere in all brands, and in our view, Scandinavian Biolabs exaggerates it. On their site, front and center, they state:
“We have developed and trademarked the Bio-Pilixin® formula, which has been clinically tested in a proprietary third-party study.”

But what does “clinically tested by a third-party company” actually mean? The way they say it makes it sound like someone independently decided to test their product—but that’s not how it works.
These are companies you pay, meaning they work for you.
They are not independent studies.
In fact, nearly every brand now uses the label “clinically tested”, all it means is that a company—upon payment—conducted product tests on volunteers.

Have you tried searching for the document from Scandinavian Biolabs? Do it. Look it up and read it for yourself. You'll see it was conducted on a total of 30 people, only 4 of whom were men.
Among this small group, some said their hair loss was due to STRESS, others to SEASONAL CHANGE, and some to HORMONAL CAUSES. 
This is just to show that when you see “clinically tested,” it doesn’t mean anything substantial—it’s not truly independent, because the company itself commissions it for marketing purposes, 
It’s not a study that demonstrates anything medically or scientifically meaningful.
It simply means what it is: a small product test on volunteers—nothing more.
It doesn’t say anything remarkable about a product, at least from our perspective, It's up to you to decide whether a test like this is a good way to prove something, not us.
Have you ever seen a brand that doesn't say "clinically tested"?
We might be the only ones.

 

In addition, you’ve reported some medical doctors who endorse this brand and are listed on the website. 
We want to clarify that they are indeed real medical doctors: they’re featured to lend credibility to the brand.
However, they have a financial interest and this doesn’t seem to be clearly indicated…

 

We don’t know this brand’s cosmetic products, maybe they’re great, maybe they’re helpful.
We’re not interested in knowing, we do not judge the products, as stated multiple times on this page.
But everything we’ve told you reflects the reality of advertising communication.
We can judge the communication, which according to our analysis is wrong and somewhat misleading for the reasons we’ve already explained, however, it’s up to you to read the text above and interpret it as you wish.

That said, putting aside these advertising missteps, their marketing team is clearly very skilled—because if they can sell a dermaroller for €44 when it goes for €2 on AliExpress, it proves that the advertising works.

SPARTAN (TRY SPARTAN)

You’ve reported numerous videos from this brand, all of them exaggerated—like these two frames we’re showing below:

Obviously, as we always say, it's not possible to regrow hair on bald heads. However, since this is a private label product we've already discussed, to avoid repeating ourselves, we invite you to first read the analysis on HAIR LOSS SECRETS and LABORATORIO TRICOLOGICO ITALIANO. After that, everything will be clear.

    Die Aufnahme soll die Qualität oder Wirksamkeit eines Produkts nicht diskreditieren oder herabsetzen.
    Unsere Absicht besteht ausschließlich darin, das Recht auf Kritik auszuüben, wie es durch geltende Gesetze anerkannt ist – zu Informationszwecken.
    Alle abgegebenen Kommentare beziehen sich ausschließlich auf Kommunikations- und Marketingpraktiken, die möglicherweise zu Missverständnissen in der Öffentlichkeit geführt haben – basierend auf Aussagen, die irreführend oder unbegründet erscheinen.
    Marken werden ausschließlich im Zusammenhang mit diesen Mitteilungen berücksichtigt und nicht im Zusammenhang mit den Produkten selbst.
    Wenn deine Marke auf dieser Seite erscheint – auch wenn du durchaus gute Produkte anbietest – liegt das an Werbebotschaften, die unserer Meinung nach einer Klarstellung bedürfen.
    Unser Ziel ist es, Transparenz zu gewährleisten und Verbraucher dabei zu unterstützen, informierte Entscheidungen zu treffen.
    Es werden keine Bewertungen oder negativen Urteile über die intrinsischen Eigenschaften der Produkte abgegeben.
