As the old saying goes “never let the facts get in the way of a good story” and that certainly seems to be the case following the closure of KSL Hair in Glasgow.
Over the years, we have worked from 79 West Regent Street in Glasgow and seen a number of similar businesses within the same building come and go (Skolas, West Regent Street Clinic and The Hair and Skin Centre to name a few) but never before have we been wrongly implicated. Just to set the record straight, we have to underline that Hair Technology is an independent company which has been under the same ownership and control since it’s inception. We started trading in 1993 and incorporated in 1996. Since then we have always sought to offer impartial help and advice – as we don’t do surgery but have 25 years experience helping those who have had transplants, scalp reductions, etc. we are perfectly placed to offer advice on a person’s suitability (or not) for surgery.
From our years of experience we know that whether or not someone has had surgery, if they are unhappy with their hair there can be an overwhelming sense of isolation and desperation and this is why we always offer a sympathetic ear. This has also created an environment for often inaccurate reporting on social media which is a pity as we are fully supportive of plans to control more tightly the availability of surgery. In fact over the years we have devoted much time trying to warn people considering surgery from going ahead if we feel their expectations are unrealistic – hardly something that would sit comfortably with a hair transplant business!
Recently the titles of our blogs have been compiled in a wholly accurate manner to suggest we are affiliated with KSL Hair. To be clear, our posts on that business (the contents of which are self-explanatory) were aimed at reaching out to anyone in need. This remains the case but we have added the word “Closure” to the title of the 24th March blog entry to ensure there are no similar misunderstandings. It is just a pity the next two entries entitled “the original and the best” and “Hair Technology International” hadn’t been treated similarly!
Over the years our client base has increased annually usually through recommendations and word of mouth. We still believe that surgery should always be the last option to consider and only then after doing full research and shopping around.
At Hair Technology we always promise to help – call or email us for free and impartial advice on all aspects of hair loss.
