“I’m not only the Hair Club president, but I’m also a client,” Sperling famously told viewers in his '90s commercials.
Sy Sperling, the Hair Club for Men founder who famously reminded viewers that he wasn’t just the company’s president but “also a client,” has died, SouthFloridaReporter.com reports. His spokeswoman Terri Lynn confirmed to the Associated Press that Sperling died Wednesday in Boca Raton, Fla. following a lengthy illness. He was 78.
“I’m not only the Hair Club president, but I’m also a client,” Sperling, who started losing his hair at age 26, would say as he held up a photo revealing his previously balding pate.“I got in the business because of my own personal needs,” he told the Wall Street Journal in 2011. “I had thinning hair and it affected my self-esteem. I tried [a natural hair-restoration process called weaving] because I didn't want to do a toupee.
