MY OWN HEAD· 36 MONTHS · UNRETOUCHED
“My girlfriend used to bring up my hair every couple of weeks. She hasn't mentioned it in over a year.”
“I used to hate well-lit parties. Last weekend a girl told me I had great hair. Did not compute.”
Friends. Not paid reviewers.
I started losing hair young. Vertex first.
Tried minoxidil. Got heart palpitations. Looked at finasteride. Read about permanent side effects and put the bottle back.
So I read the papers myself. Crossed off everything that didn't have evidence. Six things survived. I bought them, mixed them in my apartment, and put it on my head.
The before/after up there is the result. Thirty-six months later, I don't check the mirror anymore. I'm still bottling it on my kitchen counter.

Hair grows in 12-week cycles. Most people see fill-in by month three. The vertex shot above took about 18 months. Give it 90 days at minimum, that's why the refund window is what it is.
In a 6-month head-to-head trial, rosemary oil was non-inferior to 2% minoxidil for androgenetic alopecia.1Panahi Y. et al. Rosemary oil vs. minoxidil 2% for androgenetic alopecia. Rosemary at 15% is the foundation of off script. Then we layered five more studied actives on top. For mild to moderate thinning, that's the case. For aggressive loss, stack our serum with whatever your dermatologist puts you on.
Mild, usually weeks 2 to 4. Much less pronounced than minoxidil. It's follicles synchronizing into a new growth cycle. Push through it.
Yes. No contraindication. Finasteride is an oral 5α-reductase inhibitor. Minoxidil is a topical vasodilator. Off script is a topical with six different mechanisms. Plenty of users stack one or both with us.
In my apartment. I bottle each batch by hand. No manufacturer, no facility, just me, the ingredients, and amber glass. If that's a dealbreaker, this isn't the product for you.
The mechanisms are mostly androgen-pathway. Saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil have good data for women with diffuse thinning. We have female friends on it with good outcomes. Try it on the 90-day refund.
Probably. The androgen pressure that caused the thinning doesn't go away. Same is true of finasteride and minoxidil, but unlike those, off script doesn't shed if you skip a week because your underlying scalp health improves.
GHK-Cu peptide at 5% is expensive. Rosemary essential oil at 15% is expensive. We chose fidelity to the literature over a cheaper bill of goods. If you want a rosemary-water tonic for $12, those exist. They aren't this.
Most list 20–30 ingredients at trace concentrations — diluted enough to be inoffensive, cheap enough to sell on Amazon. We went the other direction: six ingredients, each at the concentration the studies used. We publish exactly what's in it and how much. If you wanted to make this yourself, you could. You're paying for the sourcing, the concentration, and the fact that someone already read the papers.
Email us within 90 days. We refund in full. Don't ship the bottle back, keep it. Use it on your beard.
