HairClone, working with an established and licensed UK tissue bank, have received regulatory approval to begin follicle cryopreservation and banking. HairClone’s Clinical Partners and Banking Associates will be established procurement centres. Male and female patients over 18 will be able to have around 50 Follicle Units extracted, cryopreserved and stored for future use when treatments are available. Hairs like any other structure of the body ages and cryopreservation and storage at -150C at as early an age as possible “stops the clock”

Can someone explains the difference between HairClone and Tsuji/Stemson?

They are trying to raise funds by taking your folliciles now and freezing them.

Absolutely f*****g moronic.

HairClone has a catchy name but no method to speak of.

Sounds like a great business idea. You can freeze your hair and come back whenever you want and remember the old good days from when it was on your head and not in a hairbank!

progress is progress at the end of the day
I don’t really believe it’s progress. It’s more of a “well pay us right now to freeze your hair, so that if and when we have a cure we can use your frozen hair on you!”

It’s like a way of acquiring investor capital without any liability. If they fail, you can bet you won’t be getting the money back you paid them.

It doesn't make sense. Why I need to pay you to store my hair? If one day you have a cure I will give you 10 hairs to clone.

It's like these cryonics companies, that freeze your body to immortalize it 2000 years in the future. Only more nonsesical, since you don't need frozen follicles to clone hair.

The idea is, that your 25yo hairs are thicker and stronger than your 50yo hairs. But a good cure/solution isn't that long away, so it doesn't make so much sense, except for making money.

Buy freezing your hair and transplanting the cloned hair 10 years later on you are I theory getting younger hair.
It's not too dissimilar to Tsuji and Tissuse what they plan on doing re hair cloning.

Hey guys, if anybody is interested, head over to FollicleThought. Go to the article about HairClone and at the bottom the CEO Paul is providing some additional information.
