Editorial Worth it

A Hair Loss Treatment is a gender-transformation visual novel that clearly resonates with its audience—players consistently praise the thoughtful character writing, the genuine sense of transition (not just physical change but psychological and social), and the breadth of branching relationship paths. The developer is actively engaged, responsive to feedback, and transparent about design choices (hidden stats to encourage exploration over grinding). However, the game suffers from real structural friction: many story paths are gated behind opaque stat requirements, leading to repeated player frustration; a softlock bug exists in at least one route (the gay club / trans character path); and there are scattered pronoun/name errors in later scenes, particularly on the ex-partner route. These are not game-breaking, but they mar an otherwise polished experience. The newest build (v0.2.3) is publicly available and playable, though the stat-discovery design means expect some trial-and-error to unlock all content.

Description

A Hair Loss Treatment is an adult transformation visual novel following a man in his mid-twenties who, struggling with early-onset baldness and its devastating social impact, discovers a miraculous treatment. The cure, however, brings unexpected changes to his body, mind, and identity—far beyond restoring his hair. The shadowy corporation behind the treatment pursues its own hidden agenda, entangling the protagonist in a deeper conspiracy. The game is choice-driven, allowing players to shape their character's path and relationships across multiple branching storylines. Players can pursue romantic relationships with characters like Grant, Rosie, Abi, and Paul, or remain single; build a career as a model and social media influencer; and explore various activities including hikes, art classes, and resort holidays. The game features illustrated scenes, dynamic dialogue, and player decisions that meaningfully affect story outcomes, relationships, and character development. With roughly two months of in-game story content completed across multiple routes and early endings, plus extensive free-roam activities and side content, the game emphasizes player agency and consequence. Sexual and romantic content varies based on choices and relationships chosen.
