Well it seems American Crew Copper-Peptides are selling so well, grocery stores are now selling them. At least in Dallas....in Albertsons. Extremely cheap too. Normaly you have to shell out $20 to $30 for the 6oz bottle. I just saw it at Albertsons for $11.99 (yes the 6oz bottle). Too bad I just dropped $50 F-ING bucks for a 6oz bottle of Tricomin.......DAMN

Here is a write up about American Crew CP's

Don't stress is, we all spent some cash I'm sure!

I bought a $30 dollar bottle of Folligen, and it's lasting me forever !

I dilluted half the bottle and another half of pure Folligen is in a tupperware in my closet... ready to go when this now full half-dilluted bottle runs out... man this stuff is good though.

I like to spray it on my face too.. good for the skin in general!

Yeah your right of course but it pisses me off when I get ripped off!

In the hairloss game I have always been cautious and this just pisses me off! :)

Yeah when I used AC or Folligen I sprayed it on my face too and it left a nice healthy glow to my skin after a few months. I can't do this with Tricomin due to the menthol.

Your welcome HairLossTalk.com, I think this further proves how much CP's help since it is now a OTC product with science backing it for hairloss. Yes of course one can debate the % of CP's.......but nonetheless......it helps for sure.

Hopefully this is a nationwide thing and not just a Dallas test market study for sales.

According to Pickart, copper peptides enlarge the hair follicles. In places where we normally don't have hair, such as the face, this is the precursor to generating new, healthy skin cells to replace old damaged cells, which is why cu used in conjunction with an exfoliant helps people fight wrinkles and other skin damage. In places where we normally have hair, this is the precursor to the follicle generating hair cells. This is why, he says, cu helps promote hair regrowth.

If he's right, I think this means that cu should be added to the big three.

He also says that his second generation cu found in his Skin Biology products are superior to the first generation cu found in Procyte and American Crew products not only because they are stronger, but because their uptake into the skin is better. I don't know whether that's true or he's just pushing his current products, but Skin Biology products are cheaper than Procyte products, so even if they're equal, I'm going with Skin Biology products from now on.

I've started using some of his skin products to fight those crows feet and frown lines that come with time. I wish these products had been around when I was younger so I could have prevented those wrinkles from occuring in the first place.

Very good points and your correct. But for me, I use CP's for irritation so I can go with a weaker formula. Were I trying to boost growth or thickness of hair shaft, I would more than likely go back with Folligen. Damn stuff is just to green. :x

His site is very informative if you can piece together the info. It's like 1 HUGE page the way his has it set up with linking info thrown in to random links.

Put it on at night, in the morning if you have green hair/scalp mix freshly squeezed lemon with water rinse through for a couple of minutes and green goes, I tried it works very fast.

Where else could it be found besides Albertsons? Is it still in the same blue bottle?

Competition is always a good sign. Lower prices also have the potential to attract new customers, further bolstering the cycle.

WOW....Talk about an old post!

Sorry for the bad news but they stopped selling it a few months ago, so did most salons that I have looked into.

I dont know why everyone says that they've stopped selling it. I've been buying it from drugstore.com. They still carry it and havent shown any signs of dropping it from their inventory.

Regular stores seemed to have stopped selling it is what I am saying. They never sold them as far as I could tell until about 18 months ago. AC CP's suddenly popped up everywhere. Now, it seems ever store I go into no longer carries it. It will be available online for quite some time I am sure.
