You meet with a former hair-puller, who founded NPA.

TRUSTED BY Hair-pullers WORLDWIDE - Since 2019


“I mean, it just worked. I pulled maybe 80 hairs a day... Then I pulled just 5 hairs a day. And now I haven't pulled in several days. I mean... It's just amazing. I can't thank you enough.”

Who It's For

Read about hair-pullers who tried what you've tried.

You tried CBT/HRT/ComB

One client, Alice (name is alterered for privacy concerns) came to me after having tried ComB for a while.

ComB is a quite extensive approach which combines CBT, HRT, and additional techniques.

She hadn't felt much progress because ComB required her to use her willpower to stop or redirect her urges.

When she started to pull, it was simply too hard to stop.

Even though she had "reward systems" it didn't matter.

Even though she negotiated with herself to "only pull one more and then stop" - it didn't matter.

After working with me she stopped pulling after 1 session.

She said this was "way better than all the other things."

Note: She stopped after 1 session, but most people need at least 3 sessions.

You tried ACT

If you've tried ACT, I often say that you tried becoming a monk.

You felt the urge – the worst urge in your life – and you tried to accept it.

You tried to ignore it.

But ayone who's felt the urge to pull "one more" knows how hard this is.

If this didn't help you stop completely it wasn't your fault.

It's actually really hard to become a monk.

Few people do. And it takes long. Really long.

It's not impossible to stop for you. You just need something easier.

Something where you just show up, do some exercises, and pull less each time.

That's what the NPA method is.



One client, Anna (name changed for privacy concerns), had tried ACT plus two other forms of hypnotherapy.

She contacted me because her boyfriend saw she was struggling and motivated her to go look for a new solution.

She loved that by the way. He was the only person who really saw what she was going through.

Anna booked several sessions back-to-back the same evening.

After almost 3 hours we were done.

One week later she reported that all the pulling was gone.

It just wasn't a struggle anymore. Completely automatic.

Note: Anna did 3 sessions in one evening. Most clients wait a few days between each session.

You tried willpower

One client, Sarah (name changed for privacy concerns) came to me having tried willpower for the last couple of months with no luck.

She had also tried:

  • "A couple of appointments with TrichStop that were totally unproductive"
  • "Keen Bracelet"
  • "Calming Vitamins"
  • "Therapy"

She had pulled for 5 years - but she was fed up.

I explained that when willpower works it usually doesn't take long.

So it's good that she tried new methods instead of "hoping" willpower would suddenly work.

If you're hoping willpower will suddenly work – you'll damage your hair permanently.

I'm being serious.

Because when you've used willpower in the past – on other things – it's hard but it's over in 30 days.

If it takes longer than 30 days with willpower, most times you've got to change methods.

Sarah chose to try the NPA Method next.

After working with me for 3 sessions no longer pulls.

Her automatic triggers no longer work. And her hair and eyebrows are no longer damaged daily.

You tried fidget toys

Fidget toys are often a part of professional treatments – or you can do use them on your own.

Either way here's the problem with fidget toys:

Using fidget toys instead of hair-pulling is just like trading your #1 best friend for a worse friend.

It's like trading the option your body wants most for a worse option.

Is that easy to do? No. You want the best option! You want your best friend!

The only way this becomes easy is if your best friend betrays you.

Then you don't want to speak to them. You can easily avoid them.

That's happened to all of us in the past.

And the NPA Method does exactly that. It turns hair-pulling from being your body's best friend to being a friend who betrayed you.

When we do that, using alternatives finally becomes easy.

And just like what happened with your best friend, the NPA Method doesn't take long.

The automatic pulling stops and there is no more urge. Your hair and skin heals again.

You tried a therapist

Therapists work with a wide range of different issues. Most have never even heard about Trichotillomania.

If you've tried working with a normal therapist – who wasn't an expert in Trich – here's what their advice looked like:

  • Wear a hat.
  • Only pull the one you want/that hurts/that's "out of place" – then stop.
  • Give yourself time limits for when to pull.
  • Avoid situations you pull in.
  • Put grease on your fingertips.

 

Let me ask you what I already know: Did that work?

My guess: No. Not long-term anyway.

These therapists mean well, but they have NO clue about the beast they are dealing with.

No clue.

Trich is an extraordinary habit. So why would these ordinary methods work?

  • Most habits aren't so destructive.
  • Most habits don't have a "gambling addiction" element in them – that special hair you look for, that you have to find one more time. Just like a gambler has to win one more time.
  • Most habits aren't so isolating and lonely.
  • Most habits aren't "news" to the average therapist.

 

But Trich is all these things.

So it needs a different approach than other habits. Like the NPA Method.

The NPA Method is a custom and comprehensive method made just for Trichotillomania.

It's what I used myself – to stop pulling after 6 years of hell. And it's what I now use to help long-term hair-pullers stop – every day, every week.

NPA Gets Radical Results Because...

It's Designed Just For Trichotillomania

Trich is an extraordinary habit. Why would an ordinary method work?

Most habits aren't so destructive.

Most habits don't have a "gambling addiction" element in them – that special hair you look for, that you have to find one more time. Just like a gambler has to win one more time.

Most habits aren't so isolating and lonely.

Most habits aren't "news" to the average therapist.

But Trich is all these things. So it needs a different approach than other habits.

No Willpower Required

Most methods essentially give you different ways of "restisting" the urge to pull – for example using willpower to do alternatives like breathing or fidget toys.

Here's the problem with using willpower to do alternative things:

Using alternatives is like trading your #1 best friend for a new friend – forever.

Is that easy to do? No!

But what happens when a best friend betrays us?

Then you don't want to speak to them. You can easily avoid them.

The NPA Method does exactly that. We turn hair-pulling into something you "just don't want to do anymore".

Because now Trich is like your body's #1 best friend. It's the best alternative your body knows.

If you do the NPA Method it can become the best friend who betrayed you instead. Now it's easy to not pull.

Helps Over 93% Of Hair-Pullers

You feel sad when you don't know what else to do.

If you've tried willpower the last 30 days or more without stopping – it won't work.

You'll keep pulling for years and years.

So many people pull year and years. They get comfortable with it.

That destroys their hair more and more.

So whatever you do – you need to stop. You need to try something new.

Don't "wait and see" just to find your hair destroyed before you know it.

The good news is this: Most people who have failed with everything from willpower to 4-5 professional methods still have a chance.

So far, over 90% of people who thought they had no option left were helped by the NPA Method.

That's not a 100%, but nothing in life is 100%. So take the leap – stop damaging your hair – and enjoy the fact that it's risk-free.

Feel No Difference After A Paid Session? Get A Full Refund

To inspire more people to take the leap and finally stop I've removed more risk than anyone you can find.

Why does everyone take your money even when you don't get results?

Why can't they just refund the ones who didn't feel any difference?

I'll tell you why: They would go out of business!

But I won't – so I can offer a money-back guarantee to anyone who doesn't feel any difference.

With my current success rates, there won't be many refunds. I'll be fine.

And the few people who get refunds can take that same money elsewhere and try again.

They get another chance. Instead of giving up after one method fails.

That's worth something to me. A lot actually. Because I want you to succeed long-term.

So if you pay for a session and don't feel any difference – you get a full refund.

“It's no longer an internal battle of my logical conscious brain saying 'don't to it', and the compulsion behind overriding it.

My brain has felt calmer, and now when I think about it, I just think 'I'm going to be good. It's going to be completely ok not to pull.”

FAQs

Are sessions online or offline?

All sessions are online using Zoom or Google Meet.

Once you book, you'll receive a link for your session, and all you need to do is show up on time.

It's a relaxed setting because it leads to better outcomes.

My clients come mainly from the US, with others joining from the UK, various European countries, and different parts of Asia.

Does the free session have any hidden payments?

No! The initial session is completely free for new clients. There are no hidden fees.

This allows more people to try out the NPA method who otherwise would be worried that it might not work.

In a time with more scammers and AI bots than genuine individuals, I believe it's important to provide a risk-free option for hair-pullers to try out.

What results can I expect?

You can look at the past results my clients have had, and decide for yourself.

But remember that past results never guarantee future results, because you may be different.

What do additional sessions cost?

Each additional session is currently priced at $197.

But because of my track record the price will gradually increase to $497 over time. This means that a full treatment for most people will be over $1000.

Because the NPA method gives you back more life quality than the latest iPhone – it's going to be priced accordingly.

Do you recommend seeing a therapist/psychologist while going through the process?

I recommend doing your own research and making your own choice.

I've had clients who saw psychologists or therapists alongside me, and clients who exclusively worked with me. Both groups were happy with their results.

Ultimately, it's important to do what feels comfortable for you.

Will this work if I've already tried other treatments?

My past results do not guarantee that you get similar results.

But so far I've helped people who had tried the following things before coming to me:

  • CBT
  • Habit Reversal Training
  • ComB
  • Hypnosis
  • General therapy
  • Medication
  • Meditation
  • Stress balls
  • Fidget toys
  • Sitting on my hands
  • Putting on hand cream
  • Telling friends and family
  • Wearing hats, scarves and headcovers
  • Trying different hairstyles
  • Cutting my hair short
  • Identifying when and where I pull
  • Giving myself timeframes for pulling
  • Using the habit bracelet (Keen bracelet / Habitaware)
  • Talking to my psychologist about it

Who You'll Meet With

Andreas Larsen

Hi, my name is Andreas and I used to pull over 70 hair... a day.

From age 12 to 18 I pulled so much that I had a baseball-sized bald spot on the crown of my head.

You can imagine the bullying.

I felt lost. No matter what I tried I couldn't stop.

To make it worse – everyone around me said "just stop!"

But they didn't know how hard that was.

They didn't know how much shame I felt.

Worse was that I didn't know anyone else who did this... I was just me.

And I was so scared of permanently damaging my hair. What if I kept doing this for 6 more years?

Then I became the luckiest man on earth because of what happened next:

One day I was at work taking a sales course about "removing" cold-calling fear.

We learned a technique to make the automatic fear many people have for cold-calling strangers no longer happen automatically.

Do you see where I'm going with this?

When I got home I immediately researched the science behind this method.

I went deep into the rabbit hole: I read books from the 1970s, 80s, and 90s.

Everything to see if this maybe – just maybe – could work for Trich, too.

What I found blew me away.

There were frameworks from the 80s that I didn't see anyone talk about today.

But at the time they had been incredibly successful on all types of extreme habits.

Veterans had overcome PTSD with some of these things in a single session.

That's when I decided to really learn this – and put together a recipe that just might work for Trich too...

Then I finally tested it on myself.

After doing my first version of this "recipe" of extraordinary techniques for three days in a row… I stopped for 6 months.

Just stopped. Didn't even want to pull.

I can't remember even thinking about it.

But then after 6 months it started again.

That was expected. Because these neural pathways lie deep in our brains.

So I basically had to "destroy" them using my recipe of techniques a second time.

It was gone again immediately.

This time it lasted 12 months before I had to do the recipe of techniques again.

And that's the final time I ever did them.

I haven't pulled since.

My hair grew back. Yes all of it. It doesn't seem like anything is permanently damaged. I was lucky I guess.

The shame is gone. I feel proud of what I was able to accomplish.

And best of all is that I don't have to worry anymore. Worry about there being something wrong with me. Worry about what people see or think. Worry about maybe giving it to my kids in the future.. None of it! All the worry – gone.

In 2019 I shared an article online outlining part of the recipe I used on myself.

Emails started pouring in because I put my email in the bottom if anyone had questions.

I received success story after success story.

From there I started NPA – the Never Pull Again company. And to be honest, it's the most rewarding job I've ever had.

If you resonate with any part of my story, book a session right away. You're not alone.

I've poured my heart and soul into creating the NPA Method. And I truly believe it's the best option for anyone suffering out there.

Every week I'm getting more and more success stories from people using the NPA Method to stop.

Next week it could be you.

The Story Behind the NPA Method

"From hair-puller to helping 1,000,000 people stop"

From: Andreas Larsen
April, 2023

Dear hair-puller (i.e. "amazing human who just happens to pull hair").

I started this company because I used to pull 70+ hairs every day... and I couldn't stop.

In middle school, I had a bald spot the size of a smooth baseball.

My father was furious at me for not being able to stop...

So I’ve been looking for a solution for as long as I can remember.

In 2018 I finally found something that worked... almost by accident.

It was a technology from the 1980s, and I went from years of struggle to stopping in one evening.

When I stopped pulling that fast, I suspected I had found a breakthrough.

But when I shared what I found in a Medium article that now has 43,000+ views...

And started getting tons of email from people getting similar results...

Then I knew I had found a breakthrough.

And that's when I made my big decision.

Because I had pulled since I was a little kid, and didn't find a solution until the 2nd year of my Master's Degree in Business...

And because so few therapists focused on Trichotillomania and used inappropriate treatments...

I decided I would take what I learned in my Master's in Business and use that to develop and spread the best hair-pulling treatments on the planet.

That became the NPA (Never Pull Again) Method.

Our first mission is to help 1,000,000 people stop.

We're not there yet, so I need your help to get there. Yes, yours.

I'm happy to finally meet you.

The first thing I want to say is that you're more than your habit.

And I can't wait to get to know you more, whether through our interactions online, or through 1-1 sessions with us.

Scroll around this site, and see what you like.

If you're looking for the best help for Trichotillomania in the world – that is what we're striving to offer.

-Andreas

P.S. You are just one method away from stopping.

The NPA Movement

Becoming a "Trich-Fighter" means so much more than just stopping your hair-pulling. It means living the life you truly want, effortlessly.

We Are Trich-Fighters.

A Trich-Fighter accepts themself while working on stopping. They don't believe they have to choose one or the other.

A Trich-Fighter realizes their hair-pulling habit formed by accident, and there's nothing wrong with them. They realize hair-pulling does something positive for them, whether it's to reduce stress, not feel bored, or simply to distract themselves from difficult thoughts. And all human beings have small habits to accomplish these things. They just happen to have hair-pulling, instead of smoking, nail-biting, thumb-twiddling, foot-tapping, etc.

A Trich-Fighter realizes that while their brain is great at creating habits, it needs a lot of help to stop them. So they know they need the right tools. And when they have learned those tools, they can control their hair-pulling habit forever, without willpower.

A Trich-Fighter doesn't feel alone, and they make sure others don't feel alone either. They realize hair-pulling is nothing more than a habit – and with the right tools it can be dealt with, or swapped with another habit, without difficulty.

A Trich-Fighter feels confident, free, and in control of themselves. They take charge of their own life, learn the tools they need to control their brain, and they inspire others to do the same.

Also, a Trich-Fighter uses their tools for much more than just stopping. They use them to live the life they truly want. They use them to live their dream life, effortlessly, in control of their brain.

We are Trich-Fighers. Are you?

We need you.

3-5% of people have Trichotillomania sometime during their lives. That means over 240,000,000 people have Trich right in 2023.

Yet it's one of the most lonely and isolating conditions that exists. It's one of the last secrets we admit to our partners, our therapists, and even ourselves.

Our mission is to develop and distribute the most effective hair-pulling solutions on the planet. So we can help 1,000,000 people stop.

But we cannot do that without you.

So use the NPA Method; become a Trich-Fighter; live your dream life being pull-free; share your success story; inspire others; and help us help 1,000,000 others just like you.
