At Hammacher Schlemmer: The Hands[-]Free Hair Rejuvenator ($699.95). Too late for Ricky Ricardo (Desi Arnaz), seen here using a device that bears no resemblance to Hammacher Schlemmer’s product.
[The I Love Lucy episode “Ricky Thinks He’s Going Bald” first aired June 2, 1952. Image found here.]

It is believed that the use of just such a machine might have precipitated George Gershwin's fatal brain tumor.
Howard Pollack’s George Gershwin: His Life and Work notes that some of Gershwin’s friends thought that an “anti-balding device involving a metal suction cup” had something to do with his headaches.
