I use other shampoos on alternate days with Nizoral 1%. Sometimes I use nizoral in the morning and another shampoo at night. I use nizoral 2-3 times a week, at the most. I could probably stand to leave the nizoral on my hair longer though. I usually leave it on anywhere between 1 1/2 min's to 3. This is...

Welcome back Death! Glad to hear you have a girlfriend. I'm curious to hear what she thinks of your "hairloss". Anyhow, your latest pics really don't show any significant change in my opinion, and I never thought you were losing your hair in any significant way in the first place. Basically...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Hello Death and Joey Ramone, Death, I have no disagreement with you and never wanted to start one. I do have a full and rich life and simply visit these forums for information and to interact (positively) with others on hairloss. My "speech", was simply...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Sorry to hear about this. Sounds like this might lend to what some people say that ALL of your hair becomes dependent until eventually the medication doesn't work at all. I'm hoping that this is not the case or I'm screwed.

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 The real Joey Ramone is dead. Why don't you join him pal?

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Hello Death. If you read the third paragragh where it says "You see Death, your hair doesn't look that bad after all. I'm still open to a trade anytime", you'll notice that I addressed you specifically so that you can compare your "hairloss" to mine. I...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Lighten up, Death. Your thread is safe. Just wanted you to compare your situation to mine and let others judge my progress (or lack thereof). Anyhow, I hope you realize that your "hairloss" is not as dire as you make it seem. Your hair still looks great...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Thanks for your constructive criticism and I'll take your suggestion under advisement. Actually, I'm a victim of a really bad haircut and it usually doesn't look this bad (I think). In any case, it really isn't my best side. But for the purposes of this...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 Here are my pics using the big 3, You guys be the judge if it's working for me or not. Bear in mind, I've been losing my hair for 26 years so my results may not be the same as someone younger.

I don't have any clinical trials and I'm not trying to dispute with anyone, but foam has worked for me including .25 Fincar, and 1% nizoral (2-3 times a week). I just have the evidence that I've seen on my head and that's enough for me. The bald spot on the back of my head has filled up some but...

Re: To foam it or not ( W/Pics) Month 1 I agree with Dreamstreet, your hair still looks good. Frankly, I think you're stressing way too much over this. Believe me, I've been there. Hell, probably most of us on this site have been there and were overpreoccupied with hairloss at one time or...

Cooliobeanz, So far I've been on the big 3 since Sep. 97. At my age, 44, my results have been encouraging, although I have been experiencing some minor shedding. Basically, while I'm shampooing, I notice more strands of hair on my hand than before I started using my current regimen. Whether...

Hello Philly, You are entitled to your point of view, of course. I'm simply relaying my own personal experiences, which have been positive so far, although not perfect. Also, I've experienced no sides. Others on this site, other than me, have proclaimed their positive results using the Big 3...

Hey Frontal, there's no time like the present when it comes to fighting male pattern baldness. At 32, you're still a young man and have the luxury of time on your side. It sounds like you're giving up on the Rogaine idea, but as others have implied here, you need to add to your regimen not subtract. I can't...

I agree with PS1. You've at least maintained and that in of itself is progress. I do notice the top of your hair is a little thicker since I don't see the hair-part on the second pic. You actually started using Rogaine about the same time that I did. I've noticed considerable improvements with...
