My name is TJ, and I’m 36 years old. Originally from Alor Setar, I’m currently based in Kuala Lumpur and work in the corporate sector as a human resources specialist at Sunway Construction, part of the Sunway Group. I’ve been with the company for 13 years, having initially started my career as an engineer before transitioning into HR.

I’m passionate about pickleball and overall wellness. I’ve been into fitness for the past 18 years, starting with the gym, but lately, I’ve become really hooked on pickleball—it’s something I truly love. I’ve always had a strong interest in the health and fitness space, not just physical activity but also mental wellness and nutrition. I believe they all go hand in hand. One day, if I step away from the corporate world, I might even explore coaching to help others on their wellness journey. Because if it helps people, why not?

TJ is passionate about pickleball.

In 2018, I started noticing an M-shaped hairline forming. I was concerned, but not overly worried. I visited a clinic in Subang and was prescribed some supplements. Then the pandemic hit. At that time, the hairline was still manageable—there was recession, but the top of my head still had decent coverage. I kept taking the supplements all the way through to 2022.

It was then I started noticing thinning at the crown. I saw more hair on my hands while washing and noticed a difference in the mirror. My concern grew, but I still stuck with the supplements. By mid-2023, things had gotten worse. In July, I realized I had to take real action. A friend recommended a salon offering an Italian treatment. It sounded promising, so I paid a few thousand ringgits and gave it a shot.

The first two weeks seemed okay. But by the third week, my scalp turned dry, inflamed, and the hair at the front got thinner. It got so bad that when I looked at the mirror, I could actually see through the front parts of my hair. I pushed through for three months, but during the whole process, deep down I felt like this wasn’t right. By the fourth month, as I was about to extend the package, I realized it wasn’t working. I only attended two more sessions and then stopped completely.

An Italian hair loss treatment costing thousands left TJ feeling disappointed. Instead of improving, his scalp became irritated and his hair grew thinner.

After that experience, I became a complete non-believer in hair growth solutions. Still, I did my research—hair transplants, finasteride, various supplements. But that failed treatment left me skeptical. In fact, after stopping the treatment, my hair returned to its previous (thin) state, which was still better than how it looked during the treatment itself. It stayed that way until the first quarter of 2024. But by August, it got much worse again, and I felt helpless.

I was so frustrated that I considered shaving my head bald. I looked into scalp tattooing, tried wearing caps—but I didn’t suit the look. I considered a hair transplant but decided against it because it’s painful, and there’s usually a two-month period of awkward hair shedding before the hair grows back. I even explored the idea of wearing a wig. I talked to my wife about the wig—and she supported the idea. I found an Instagram page that sells professional, customizable wigs and nearly booked a consultation.

After the treatment that left him disappointed, TJ became skeptical of hair growth solutions.

Then, in September 2024, I saw an Instagram post by Lynnette—a friend of mine and also a friend of Abel. She shared about Ooosh!™ coming to KL. I messaged her, saying, “Bro, I think I need this. But I don’t think it’ll work.” Because if it did, there wouldn’t be any more bald men out there. Who would choose to be bald, right? But she encouraged me to try and told me that she could get me a consultation for free.

I was hesitant, but I figured I had nothing to lose. I even reached out to Abel personally, though we hadn’t met before. He took the time to speak to me, share his story, and how Ooosh!™ worked for him. I was still skeptical, but he told me, “TJ, money-back guarantee. If this really doesn’t work, you’ll get your money back.”

I went for my first session in early October. I signed up immediately—solely based on trust. Trust in Lynnette, in Abel, and in the guarantee. After the first and second month, I noticed some shedding, which scared me, given my failed treatment experience in 2023. I messaged Abel, and he told me that about 5-10% of customers experience shedding early on. He reassured me: “I assure you it will work. If it doesn’t, I’ll give you back your money.”

In September 2024, he discovered Ooosh!™ through a friend’s Instagram post. Although skeptical, he spoke with Abel (Director of Ooosh!™ Malaysia) and felt reassured after hearing his personal experience and learning about the money-back guarantee.

The turning point came in November or December. By January or February, my colleagues from other departments started noticing: “Eh, your hair looks different. Got more hair already!” I was surprised and said, “You noticed?” They admitted they’d seen my hair thinning but never brought it up because it’s a sensitive topic. That moment was affirming.

In the fourth month of treatment, his colleagues noticed his hair regrowth.

From then on, I started sharing my story with others—how I tried various treatments, how I nearly gave up, and how I ended up with Ooosh!™. Now, when I see someone in their 30s losing hair, I feel tempted to approach them and say, ‘Bro, you need help.’ Because if I were them (and I was!), and they had tried as hard as I did, there would be this overwhelming sense of hopelessness. It’s like—you’ve tried everything, and nothing worked. But now, I’ve found Ooosh!™, and it actually works! I’m so glad I found a solution that works, that if anyone were to ask me if I can help them with their hair loss, I would gladly help because of how much it’s helped me. I just don’t exactly know how to because I’m not much of a social media guy and I don’t post much on it, though I’ve documented my progress. But I’m all for sharing this with more people and have them realize that they, too, can do something about their hair loss.

Today, I’m in my sixth month and moving into the maintenance phase. My hairdresser—who sees my hair up close every month—recently told me, “Wow, you’ve got more hair now!” Hairdressers are the first to know when you’re losing hair and the first to notice improvements.

I feel so much more confident now—let me tell you how much, though it might sound a little funny. I didn’t dare tie my shoes in public because bending down would expose my balding crown. I was so ashamed and self-conscious that instead of bending my head, I’d kneel in awkward ways just to hide it. I also avoided swimming because wet hair made the thinning even more obvious. And I didn’t like it when it rained—because when water dripped on my hair, the hair loss became really obvious. I lived in constant fear of getting my hair wet because it would expose my baldness.

But today? (Woohoo!) I can tie my shoelaces with my head bent—no problem. I’m not worried about the rain or getting my hair wet, and I can even go swimming—because I have my hair back! What did Ooosh!™ give me, you ask? It gave me the confidence to live my life again.

After regrowing his hair, he’s no longer worried about tying his shoelaces with his head bent and getting his hair wet whenever it rains or when he goes swimming—because he has his hair again.

I plan to stick with Ooosh!™. I’ve come to understand the reason behind hair loss—and that treating it is a lifelong journey. Some people think that after six months of treatment, they’ll keep their regrown hair forever—but it doesn’t work that way. Hair loss isn’t fixed in six months; it’s about managing an underlying deficiency. Long-term results require commitment—time, money, and effort. If you’re serious about fixing hair loss, it takes perseverance. It also takes patience, because Ooosh!™ regrows hair naturally, not artificially—and natural hair growth takes time. Even your regular haircuts happen only once a month because that’s how long hair takes to grow. For me, Ooosh!™ has been worth every step. To anyone who wants to grow their hair, I’d say: trust the process, commit to it, and maintain it consistently.

Trust the process, commit to it, and maintain it consistently.

To anyone experiencing hair loss and feeling hopeless—I’ve been there too. I felt devastated, lost my confidence, and even found myself asking, “Why me?” I was truly unhappy. What made it worse was that hair loss didn’t even run in my family. Just to give you some context, my family has great hairlines—even my father, who’s 70 this year, still has a full head of hair. So I couldn’t understand why this was happening to me.

If you’re going through the same thing, I encourage you to give Ooosh!™ a try. It’s not a miracle cure—if you have no hair at all, it won’t suddenly give you an Elvis Presley hairdo. But what it can do is help you regrow hair naturally, to a healthy and realistic level. Even if you opt for a hair transplant, you’ll still need to manage the root cause of your hair loss, often through drugs like finasteride or minoxidil—which come with side effects and long-term dependency, and I don’t think that’s worth it.

TJ has grown to understand the reason behind hair loss—and that treating it is a lifelong journey.

Your hair plays such a big role—it can completely transform your image. For men, losing hair can make you look 5 to 10 years older almost instantly. So if there’s a way to invest in something that changes your whole appearance, I’d say it’s absolutely worth it.

I joked with a friend the other day: I’d rather gain a lot of weight and work to lose it again, because I know how to train and get back in shape. But with hair—once it’s gone, I can’t just grow it back the same way. It’s irreplaceable.

With Ooosh!™, I found an alternative that actually worked for me. So if you’re feeling hopeless, just give it a try—you might be surprised.
