I have shoulder length hair and now I have a lot of really short regrowth and it looks silly and makes my hair stick up and my scalp more visible. but I also don't like short hair on myself so it is just a...

    Kerasome?

    well detectable is relative. I do not think I had clumps of powder grossly visible near my scalp. If someone's eyes were 2 inches from my scalp..under a spotlight.. I dunno. It is always the part that is going to be vulnerable to detection. Honestly I would not wear it to the beach unless I had...

    Kerasome?

    well actually it survived a rainstorm the day I wore it. I was shocked. But when you blow dry it you kind of "bake" it in and it is supposed to be actual ground up sterilized human hair. Your hair will seem a bit stiff kind of like you blow dried gel into it, which is yucky. And a person who...

    Kerasome?

    hello I have used it, but you should know I I have longish wavy hair (female). It was supermessy but I hate toppik and dermatch. It smudges a bit at the hairline and you have to clean up but I did think the cosmetic result was better. Leg

    Telogen Effluvium and hair regrowth

    scalp pain the thing that really helped with that was copper peptides, especially tricomin blue spray. and my regrowth has taken FOREVER (years). partly bc I had to correct my iron but my impression is that the hair was trying to regrow but couldn't until my scalp also recovered from all the...

    Telogen Effluvium and hair regrowth

    hi I am assuming you are a man with Telogen Effluvium but not male pattern baldness? I am a woman who had chronic Telogen Effluvium for more than three years and my regrowth sounds just like yours. It has been slow and steady. I am only on one real Androgenetic Alopecia rx (topical spironolactone)since I am not sure if or how bad I even have it. so I have avoided...

    hi guys, help please

    hi Gardener, thank you for answering. do you know where you saw that stuff about the testosterone vs DHT in women?

    hi guys, help please

    I am visiting from the women's side to ask a few question- gourmetstylewellness.com- anyone-- it seems like the women don't use topical spironolactone much- is 5% spironolactone really known to be better than 2%? It really stinks and ends up being more expensive. someone had also I think mentioned a nizoral cream? is there...

    hi how great that you say you love her even if her scalp shows. had to respond to that. :) many many women have hair loss of some sort, and it is not always the same causes as in men, ie DHT. if she is concerned about it she needs to get some labs drawn to determine the reasons. sometimes...
