Great Topic I'm in Southern California (originally from Ohio) and moving to Oregon when my son graduates from high school this year. Renee

I just ordered Folligen. Would love to hear what others have to say. Tricomin is just so expensive for me and I'm using it twice a day so thought I'd try the Folligen instead. Renee

Hmmm...I tried to order the travel sizes on gourmetstylewellness.com but couldn't find them offered so had to order elsewhere. I would have ordered the travel sizes from gourmetstylewellness.com if they were available. Renee

Thanks Maya. I should have posted that I did end up ordering 2 travel sizes from another site, medium brown and light brown. Medium brown seems to cover up better but it is a little darker than I like so I mix the two and that helps. Anyway, thanks again for your reply! Renee

PS PS: I just noticed your age. I'm sorry this happens to young people like you. I'm in my 40s and I feel too young for it to happen to me! Renee

It looks great! I can totally understand about wanting to get the look back that you once had and it looks like you've managed it quite nicely. I also went to Janet's web site. She sounds like a great person. This is great info to have for anyone whose treatments don't work. I'm still waiting...

Thanks for the link. Not sure I have my answer but perhaps I'll find it with more reading. Renee

Hello all, I'm a bit confused about retinol. In one post/ng (not sure where) I read that products containing retinol should be avoided as they can cause hair loss and then in other posts I read that people are using retinol as part of their treatments for better saturation, etc. What's the...

Hi Lentara, I'll probably try the couvre but I'm afraid I'll pick the wrong color. My hair is brown but has some blond highlights to it. Anyway, I'll get brave and give it a try soon. Thanks for the info! Renee

Terrific idea! Too bad she's not in the Los Angeles area... :( Renee

My hair is about shoulder length with some layering action going on. Since my hair is very straight and thin, I think the layering helps but I also cut my bangs so that I could bring my hair forward to cover the balding areas. I think that it helps hide things a bit but it's not a good style for...

I saw a program on the Discovery Health channel last night. It was about this guy who makes prosthetics (eyes, ears, nose, facial) for those who have suffered a loss through illness or accident. What a wonderful thing this man does. He's such an artist and the prosthetics are so natural looking...

Congratulations on your marriage and I'm so glad you had a wonderful honeymoon full of lovely memories and no hair worries! I hear you about feeling like Cinderella but try not to put yourself there as I'm sure you are a Queen in the eyes of your husband. :) Renee

Hi Anita, For me, it seems that I use less minoxidil when my hair is wet. When it's dry, I use twice as much. I use twice as much anyway because my hair is shoulder length and seems to soak up a lot. But it is harder to see when wet if I've covered all the necessary areas. Somedays, I just feel...

Okay. Thanks for the reply Sally and congratulations on your sprouts! Renee
