5:03 am
>> i felt so good about myself. i've never felt better. >> i love my hair. i love how i feel about my hair. >> i'm a new me. i'm reinvented. >> hi. i'm tom wainman, and i'm here to talk to you today about a company that has helped thousands of people look and feel great. for more than 30 years, hair club has offered hair-loss solutions to men and women who are fed up with thinning hair, hair loss, and the low self-esteem that can come with it. hair club is the leading provider of proven hair-loss solutions in north america. although many companies on tv and the internet claim they can re-grow hair with miracle cures, or focus only one product or solution, most of these claims are either biased or unproven. hair club is not about one product, one shampoo, or a miracle cure. hair club is about all proven hair-loss solutions. hair club is a real company, and they guarantee their work. hair club staff include prominent board-certified doctors, researchers, world-class hair stylists, and
5:04 am
trained hair-loss consultants -- experts -- real people who love what they do and aspire to help others. during this show, you'll meet these unique individuals. most important, you'll meet real clients who, like many of you, wanted to do something about their hair loss. are you ready to do something about your thinning hair? if you're ready to act or even just find out more about hair loss, hair club is ready to help. stay tuned and you'll learn more about this unique company and the thousands of people hair club has helped to get their hair back. >> i wanted to project myself in the very best possible way. i decided that having my hair back the way it used to be was an important step for me. >> myself, i'm 45 years old. and, you know, i'm not in the best shape in the world, but one thing -- i'm continually trying to get better, and my hair is just one less problem i ever have to think about. >> i feel blessed. i've not worried about other people passing judgment or wondering what might be wrong with me. i don't second guess going to the store or going to the movies or going to have a drink.
5:05 am
i'm confident. i'm comfortable. >> welcome back. let's get right to the root of the problem -- hair loss and what causes it. now, hair loss affects more than 70 million people in north america today -- 40 million men and 30 million women. that's a lot of people. some people try products that claim to re-grow hair only to find out a few hundred dollars later that they didn't work. don't waste your money on unproven remedies. if you care about how you look and you want to get your hair back, take time to listen to world-renowned hair-loss expert dr. jon gaffney, a board-certified plastic surgeon and member of the american medical association. >> hair loss, for both men and women, is more common than you think. by the age of 50, half the adult population experiences hair loss. many of us in the medical community expect this trend to increase over time, in part, due to such things as stress, poor nutrition, bad diets, and certain prescription medication. hair loss is different for men and women.
5:06 am
male-pattern hair loss is the most common hair loss for men, representing more than 90% of all male cases in north america. it occurs due to the chemical dihydrotestosterone, commonly known as dht. dht causes a shortening of the life span of the hair follicles in these men. the follicle's resistance to dht, or lack thereof, is genetic, and that's why some men go bald and some don't. >> for me, i started to go bald when i was in high school. it was a little bit at the beginning, and then it got really worse once i got into college and to the point where it was really dramatic. and, through this time, i started to use a lot of different products, a lot of different things that promised, you know, re-growing of hair, things of that nature. >> hair loss for women, in many ways, is far more traumatic. the psychological effects for women can be devastating. there are many different causes of hair loss among women -- female-pattern thinning, which is genetic diffuse hair loss, menopause-related, postpartum,
5:07 am
or stress-related shedding, and alopecia areata or spotty hair loss are just a few. some hair loss in women is caused by poor hair care. harsh chemical relaxers or tight hair braiding can permanently damage these hair follicles. >> you know, a woman losing her hair has to be the most difficult thing in the world. you know, you expect men to lose their hair, but not women, right? it's very unbecoming. it's embarrassing. you lose your self-esteem. i mean, i did the weave thing. then you get the wigs. guess what? you're very uncomfortable going out. it's a windy day. you don't know if it's gonna blow off. i'm a profuse sweater, right? it could just slide off. then you pick up a kid, they grab it, it moves. it's like, "enough already!" there has got to be something better. >> there is an old expression that says, "if the only tool you have is a hammer, then all the world looks like a nail." hair club is not about one tool. it's about all proven hair-loss solutions. >> that was dr. jon gaffney,
5:08 am
world-renowned hair-loss expert. now we'll show you how you can get your hair back with proven hair-loss solutions. >> male announcer: don't tolerate another day of hair loss or thinning hair, because now, the solution you need to get a fuller, natural head of hair is just one phone call away. hair club is the only company in the world to offer all tested and proven hair-loss solutions, because no single solution is right for every type of hair loss. call hair club now for this free educational booklet and get a free microscopic hair-and-scalp analysis at any of our hair club centers nationwide. young or old, man or woman, no matter what kind of hair loss you may have, hair club has a unique solution for you, guaranteed. no other company on the planet can make that claim. hair club has been the recognized leader in hair-loss solutions for over 30 years, with centers in over 90 locations and over 50,000 satisfied clients. call now and get the facts.

5:10 am
experience all the way around. >> it looked so natural to me, so i went and checked it out, made the phone call, and it really changed my life. >> i don't second-guess going to the store or going to the movies or going to have a drink. i'm confident. i'm comfortable. >> now let's talk about the proven solutions available to you at hair club and the hair club guarantee of satisfaction. what is proven to work? hair club has expertise in three areas -- non-surgical hair enhancement, fda-approved hair therapies, and microscopic follicular unit hair transplants. available only at hair club, the bio-matrix strand-by-strand process is known around the world as the gold standard in hair replacement. hair club's groundbreaking technology is the only process available to date that gives you a full, healthy-looking head of hair by adding real human hair to your own hair. bio-matrix is not a toupee. it's not a wig. it's a custom-made blend of your own hair with real human hair that is matched to your
5:11 am
individual requirements. that includes hair color, facial structure, and skin tone. the process is natural and virtually undetectable. when you brush your hair, it all blends together. if someone touches your hair, it feels normal. it's easy to style. you can rough it up. you can go swimming, biking, jogging, or anywhere life takes you, and you will look great. >> i can swim, i bike, hike, i do everything, and the key point here is no one has noticed. everybody thinks i look better, but they can't quite put their finger on it. so, when they told me that would happen, i didn't believe it. i thought everybody would notice right away, but they didn't. they just thought, "well, your hair's different. what'd you do?" and so i just -- in some cases, people that were close to me, i told them. other people, i just let them guess. and so i think that's important for women especially to know is that you're gonna look great. you're gonna feel great.
5:12 am
>> i didn't want to be one of those guys that you walk down the street and say, "hey, buddy. nice hair. who shot the mannequin?" you know, that kind of thing just didn't fly for me. it's very important that it be undetectable. >> we are very lucky today to grow up at a time where technology is as advanced as it is. i've had a chance to replace my hair with a technology that is unbelievable, and i'm very happy that i did it. >> people think that i have probably found some magic ointment or something, right? they have no idea that i've actually gone to hair club. i have, in fact, shared it with some, but not many. right? because i like to keep them guessing. do you realize how nice it is for someone to walk up to you and say, "my god, you have the most beautiful head of hair"? and i say, "thank you." >> hair club is also a leader in hair therapies, with its extreme hair therapy program. >> the ext program and product regimen includes high-quality shampoos, cleansers, and conditioners as well as the fda-approved hair re-growth agent minoxidil. it is an excellent program for men and women in the early stages of hair loss and has been
5:13 am
proven to work for many people. the success of the program depends on your level and type of hair loss. i recommend you have a consultation at hair club to determine whether or not you are a good ext candidate. >> hair club also offers, in select areas, the gold standard in hair transplantation -- microscopic follicular unit hair transplants. it's natural, permanent, and your transplanted hair is guaranteed to grow the way mother nature programmed it to. >> if you are a hair-transplant candidate, when choosing a hair-transplant physician, the three most important aspects you must consider are artistry, experience, and patient care. hair club's physicians are highly experienced artists having performed more 50,000 procedures, and patient care at hair club is paramount. >> when you actually see the hair grow, you're amazed. you're watching it grow day by day from a thinner look to a fuller look till you can do the things that you've always wanted to do with your hair, using different products and styling your hair differently. >> i finally went to the
5:14 am
hair club, and i found that they had the best technology, and they were far superior than everyone else. they treated me like family, like i was somebody important. i decided to go with them, and the results speak for themselves. people would just kind of look at you and wonder, "what's going on? this guy's looking younger and younger," and i'm feeling better and better about it. and it just -- it's a great feeling. >> hair club is the only company that offers all proven hair-loss solutions, backed by a guarantee of satisfaction. if you are not 100% satisfied with the option you've chosen, hair club will apply your initial purchase price to any of its other proven hair-loss solutions. hair club has changed many people's lives. you might not know it now, but i used to have a hair-loss problem. is your hair loss bothering you? maybe it's time you did something about it. when we come back, we'll introduce the people who can help you find the right solution. >> male announcer: don't

if david revealed to you you were pregnant that way would your reaction has been as pleasant? >> probably not. probably not. just being honest. >> you know what, though? a really cute couple, have a youtube channel, do a lot on youtube. so -- >> kind of how they live their life. not how dave and i live our lives. >> or anybody else for that matter. >> yes, so true. so, yes. lots to talk about on that front. >> we'll get to that in a bit. let's get right to our top story. donald trump kicked out of today's conservative red state gathering after shocking comments made overnight about foxal megyn kelly. >> reporter: good morning, craig. so if you thought you heard it all about donald trump's brash style and his unedited mouth getting him into trouble, just wait. there is more. he was supposed to be one of the big draws, a star attraction here, at this event, but the organizer has yanked his invitation in developments that
5:33 am
were happening yoev ining overn. donald trump, nowhere to be found this morning at a key conservative convention here in atlanta. the annual red state gathering. the billionaire and gop presidential front-runner was abruptly told he was no longer welcome here. after trump made new, crude comments about the questioning style of debate moderator megyn kelly last night on cnn. >> you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. blood coming out of her, wherever. >> reporter: event organizer eric erickson quickly pulled the plug on twitter writing, i have rescinded my invitation to mr. trump. while i have tried to give him great latitude, his remark about megyn kelly was a bridge too far. erickson told a small group of reporters here i am not willing to give up being 0 a decent person for donald trump. i wanted to have him here as legitimate candidate but no legitimate candidate would suggest someone a female, asking
5:34 am
questions is doing it because she is hormonal. a trump campaign spokesperson fired back after midnight. this is just another example of weakness through being politically correct, for all of the people looking forward to mr. trump coming, we will miss you. trump was already taking heat from his own presidential rivals earlier in the day. before his comments, because of trump's language towards women. governor chris christie. >> i have a really strong capable tough wife who wouldn't put up with five seconds of that kind of stuff. >> reporter: i caught up with carmy fiorina backstage. >> when donald trump or anyone else calls women's names, i think that's -- not helpful. >> reporter: and carly fiorina responded more specifically on twitter saying, mr. trump, there is no excuse and that she stands with megyn kelly. eric erickson told me he will play this tape for all attendees here starting 15 minutes early
5:35 am

5:36 am
with this words. there's no question he needs to immediately clarify that comment. >> do you renounce those comments, then? >> look, i -- my job is not to renounce comments or not. i think he needs to clarify that. if he stands by them that is highly inappropriate. i'm hoping that mr. trump, because he does speak off the cuff, because he doesn't ascribe to politically correctness was speaking in a way that wasn't fully thought out, but he needs to clarify that first thing this morning. >> at what point did these comments become damaging to the party as whole? specifically when it comes to women and to minorities? two voting blocks i mow republicknow republicans have been working really hard to recruit? >> we've done really well reaching out to young women, african-americans, hispanics, going into communities we haven't gone there. butting a lot of money and man power reaching out to
5:37 am
communities around the country where frankly republicans haven't been. it's at the top of our list and something we'll continue to do going through this next cycle. so from a party perspective, it's definitely an area we're very, very concerned with. an area we're continuing to do better and better every cycle with and that's going to propel us to victory in 2016. >> from a party perspective you are the party communications director for the rnc. at what point do you reach out to mr. trump? >> we have private conversations with all the candidates and their staffs on an ongoing basis, and i think those conversations will continue. i think you've noted before that chairman priebus talked to mr. trump about his tone. mr. trump's style is that he speaks off the cuff, that he is not someone that's run for office before, while that may be part of his popularity, he needs to understand he's seeking the presidency of the united states now and that words do matter, and so while people may have a problem with some folks who ascribe to totally political correctness, i think he needs to be much more understanding of

6:18 am
about these? >> you need to be realistic with what you are going to have, pre-and post treatment. you need to be clear of what you are doing for plastic surgery. everyone will have a different recovery time. breast augmentation, if you go underneath the muscle as opposed to over the muscle, you will have different down time. you need to talk to your doctor. >> glad to have you here to start the conversation. dr. davis and sara, thank you. up next on "today," oh, baby. the husband found out his wife was pregnant before she knew. how did that happen? the video is going viral. we will show you in just a moment. but first this is "today" on nbc.
