In this episode of Inside Marketing with MarketSurge, Reed Hansen sits down with Paul DiMuzio, Chief Marketing Officer and Co-Founder of Locklab, the telehealth brand helping thousands of men stop hair loss and regrow hair with a once-daily prescription pill.

This isn’t just a conversation about hair.

It’s about identity.
It’s about confidence.
It’s about selling something deeply emotional — in a market flooded with snake oil.

Paul breaks down how Locklab built a fast-scaling DTC telehealth brand by leaning into authenticity, real patient testimonials (not actors), and social-first marketing strategies that convert skeptics into believers.

💡 If you’ve ever wondered:

Is hair loss really about vanity — or identity?

How do you market in a scam-filled industry?

How do you scale paid social without losing authenticity?

This episode delivers.
