I'm going bald. There, I said it. I've tried my fair share of thickening shampoos and topical creams to no avail. That's genetics for you. I've decided to accept my fate, but you don't have to. For a long time, the hair-loss prevention industry was a load of crap. Most products didn't actually do anything. But we now live in 2026, so there are scientifically proven treatments that prevent hair loss—no transplant needed. Skip the flight to Turkey and call your doctor instead. But read our deep dive below first. – Chris Hatler, deputy editor |

If you take a holistic approach, you might not need to book that flight to Turkey after all. |
Every balding man has asked himself the same question: How much am I willing to do to keep my hair? To achieve noticeable long-term results, experts agree you need to religiously maintain. If you're already thinking about it, now is the time to start. Like anything marketed on the internet, some hair-loss treatments for men are total bullshit. An endless number of brands and self-proclaimed experts tout the snake oil of the moment that does nothing to keep the hair you have, much less regrow the hair you've lost. Thankfully, it's not all hype. Hair-loss treatments have come a long way in recent years. There are well-known medications, both over the counter (OTC) and prescription, and newer in-office treatments designed to save what you've got without the trouble and expense of a hair transplant. These treatments won't magically cure hair loss, but they go a long way toward keeping a fuller head. |

Seiko has never been shy about marking its milestones, but the celebrations for its, er, 145th anniversary in 2026 are at least off to a convincing start. Rather than issuing a single, grand commemorative piece, the brand has lifted the veil on three limited editions that each tap a different strand of its history: precision dress watches, mechanical chronographs, and early horological craft. The watches are unified by subtle gold detailing, a nod, Seiko says, to the engraved patterns that founder Kintaro Hattori once commissioned for his own timepieces. Together, they add up to Seiko doing what it often does best: using its own back catalog as a practical design resource to move things onward and upward. Let's break down the three new models, announced today.

Gerran Howell has seen better days. When I Zoom with the 34-year-old Welsh actor in advance of The Pitt season 2, he looks like he walked right out of the emergency room and into our interview... because he did. Howell, who plays the Nebraska-born Dr. Whitaker on the HBO series, is in the home stretch of filming season 2—which means that there's not even enough time to change out of Whitaker's blue scrubs before our chat. Even worse: Howell is giving up his lunch break to talk to me, which somehow feels like a very Whitaker thing to do. Such is life for a TV doctor. "We all naturally get very tired, which we're all very grateful for," Howell explains. "It works for our characters on screen because they're all very tired at this point in the story. They tend to put less makeup on me the longer we go, because it's like, 'No, you're looking tired. This is perfect!'" |
