Thanks. I was wondering though if anyone uses a supplement that combines some of the best so I don't have to go experimenting with/purchasing many supplements. I see so many compound products for sale, figured there were preferred ones.

Hey all! Till now, I've been treating my light hair loss with topical products only- Nizoral and a LLLT helmet. I can't do vasoldilators (Minoxidil, etc.) and have not wanted to go with finasteride. So far I seem to have stopped the loss but have not experienced any regrowth (helmet has been...

UPDATE- why did it change my original title? That's stupid. Should've just read "...to min and finasteride you can recommend?" No matter... Do they exist? For medical reasons I can't do min or finasteride. In fact to the former, I can't do any vasodilators. Nizoral has been a godsend. It really, really slowed...

Just tried the stuff. Yes, it covers. But it also is nasssssty. 1. By the end of the day my fingernails are near black from just regular hair touching. 2. I have to use a bunch of the stuff to get any results (I'm only a Norwood 1.5 in the temples and 3 in the vertex.) At $38 a bottle, not...

Yep. It's maybe still happening just a tad, but at a very, very, very slow rate (like 1-5% loss a year, barely noticeable).

What's your routine? Also, I tried rosemary essential oil in various concoctions, always for at least three months, applied nightly- no results :(

Hey guys! Haven't checked in on "the scene" in a number of years. I remember of course from back in the day there were only three tried and true, clinically-proven solutions and of course you all know what they are! I use Nizoral religiously and have been for years- stopped my hair loss dead...

Hey guys, I realize this question is probably almost impossible to answer, but figured I would try nonetheless. Certain celebrities seem to have had very successful hair transplants- Ben Affleck, Edward Norton, and Daniel Tosh come to mind. Now, granted, I'm not seeing them up close and am going off of the...

Hey all, a few years back I started browsing around for options, and I remember at the time the Dr.s who consistently came to the top were: H&W Shapiro Feller Rahal I was wondering if these were still considered the best of the best, if the list has changed in your opinions, if promising...

This is quite interesting. In all of my (albeit not yet exhaustive research), I haven't come across this use for ket. I'll definitely be researching more. Do you have any links/how-tos/sticky threads/FAQs about this? Seems really worth looking into! Thanks

Thanks all. And as regards supplements (Biotin, MSM, and so on and so forth), are there generally more reliable ones than others? I realize they likely pale in comparison to the Big 3's efficacy, but given many seem to use them as well, is there a ranking to them?

Thanks (sincerely). Trying to map out the landscape here in its entirety to come up with the best plan.

Hey guys, so here's my status on the Big 3: 1. nizoral: just started using twice a week 2. finasteride: too much risk for me to take (not worth addressing, move along ;)) 3. Min: so I just tried this yesterday and there's no way I can use this. Massive headaches, lightheadedness, and dizziness both times...

Yeah, zzzzz just answered a similar question I had. I think he's really, really defensive of taking finasteride for whatever reason. I think if people don't want to take something, as illogical or irrational as that concern might be, one should answer to their point of interest. I'm also trying to...

Hey guys! So after plenty of research and lots of less-than-successful experience with simple shampoos, I've come across and decided to try some of the big 3 regimen. Specifically, minoxidil and a ketoconazole shampoo. Am not game to do anything internal at this point like finasteride. The problem...
