The offer: $80 off the first month with code SPACE80 at talkspace.com/badfriends. The Hims segment follows with Bobby confirming he uses minoxidil and finasteride himself, crediting the products with thickening his hair as he grows it out. Andrew notes results can arrive in as little as 3 to 6 months.
