oh my god! he's solved it! I want everybody here to stop getting haircuts, immediately. clearly that's the problem. gosh, I wish somebody had told me about this treatment. no, I'm sorry, this *cure*! preach on! :pint:

I only see 1% on amazon and drugstore websites, but everyone here seems to be using 2%... I'm not sure if I want to go to my doctor again, because I had gone to a general physician to get my finasteride perscription and that sucked - any way to get 2% without a perscription? Also, Ketoconazole...

"Do you think dutasteride is trasnfered through semen, and, if so, will it affect the fetus?" Maybe it'll catch your future son's hair loss before it starts :lol: seriously though, has anyone here thought about how it's going to suck telling your kid at around 18 that they are probably...

I think you misunderstood my question - I mean, do I need to continue minoxidil/finasteride use to save the hair that I had stabilized from before the hair transplant (as in NOT the hair transplant hair)?

Ok, I've been riding the finasteride/minoxidil wagon for about a month and a half now, and I'm thinking that there is only a realistic amount of hair that I could grow back at the maximum (obviously), so... If eventually (say 1-2 years) my hair density, thickness, and loss itself all *stabilize*, then is...

WOW. My hair is in almost exactly the same shape although (unfortunately), a little more progressed. What I did was jump on the rogaine and propecia bandwagon (and I take a multivitamin, but I don't really relate that to my hairloss regiment) - was that a good or bad idea guys? i mean, I know it...

um, yea, you are wrong, I am a beyond-amateur photographer, and I know the effects of a flash, especially when it comes to making a light color appear lighter/brighter/more expansive. TRUST ME. and if you don't, try it yourself: a) take a picture of your scalp with flash (normal light...

hey! I agree! :P GODDA**IT this sucks.

umm, you guys should probably stop using flash... it REALLY skews the view. just take pics under normal/brighter lighting, no flash. that way you can see what your scalp realistically looks like. With flash a lot of non-male pattern baldness people would also show scalp (although not as much as with male pattern baldness). Just a...

well, my verdict is that these products aren't at all for longer/thinning hair/actually balding scalps - this should probably be mentioned somewhere in the OH... 13 pages before my first post! From looking at the few pics in this thread, those people seem to have a ridiculously small amount of...

Update: So I went ahead and picked this Surf hair stuff up: Verdict? This S#IT is AWFUL for longer/thinner hair. It made my hair look like crap, I ended up pulling out another 20 hairs, and showing more scalp then ever. Good thing it's a Sunday. Thanks for the s#itty recommendation.

oh good lord. i just figured something out - for the past 3 years or so, I've been combing my hair opposite to it's natural flow (by "natural" I mean forced in childhood :P), I'd part it on the right. I JUST tried parting it on the left ("natural") and the visible bald spot became NOTICEABLY...

vwdude, my hair is longer (about 4 inches avg.), and even with thickening shampoo (garnier fructis for fine hair), there's some circumstances where my thinning crown is visible. I prefer not to get my hair cut right away because I have recently started Propecia&Rogaine (2.5 months), and I don't...

The amount does not matter as long as you feel that you have clearly covered the scalp area which you need to. Putting "too much" overall isn't going to change anything, and I personally feel it's better to be sure here and put as much as I need too. Check Rogaine's website and you will see that...
