    typically how long...

    I started mid-November also (November 11, to be exact. How come us guys can remember THESE dates, but not anniversaries and such....) I started seeing good results by mid-January. If I had gotten to March without any results I would have stopped before I bought a second 4 months supply, but...

    So what good is Minoxidil?

    I wish I had taken before and after pictures, but minoxidil has helped me a lot. I've been on it for about 6 months now (Kirkland 5%) and I started seeing good results after about 2 months. I've grown a lot of hair with it. Thicker all over the top and the crown. Hasn't done anything for the...

    does METH regrow hair (pictures inside)

    This guy's hair is just longer and a mess. The lucky thing for him is he apparantly has only been on meth a little more than a year. Take it from someone who has known many meth users personally----it MAKES YOUR HAIR FALL OUT. You can always spot the chick who's high on meth by (as well as...

    "Slave to Minoxidil?"

    Yet those same people probably never miss an episode of "Desperate Housewives", or have seen every "Star Wars" movie multiple time, or have mastered "Grand Theft Auto" or, in other words, seem to find time for any number of relatively unimportant tasks without any real concern for whether they...

    Does Rogaine stop the shedding?

    I'm only using minoxidil right now. I've been on it for only 3 months and already my hair is thicker than it has been for 15 years. Other than the widow's peak I have up front, my hair has returned to probably 70-80% of it's 'old' thickness I had in my early 20's. What does finasteride do...

    Does Rogaine stop the shedding?

    I just started applying the minoxidil to my hairline a couple of days ago. But now I'm wondering if that's such a good idea. I'm not that upset by my hairline (just a widow's peak, really) and I'm wondering if any re-growth there will be noticable and maybe even ugly in the initial stages? what...

    General questions about treatments

    OK....I'm confused.... It seems there are as many different treatments and results as there are scalps! First, a brief re-cap of my hairloss---I started noticing a general thinning on top and receeding hairline at around age 28. It progresssed very slowly and even seemed to halt for a few...

    kirkland minoxidil question anyhelp appreciated

    I've had good results with the Kirkland brand. It is a 'tad' greasy---but I don't know if its greasier than other brands since I haven't compared---and it's not so greasy that I find it even noticible. After 3 months I've gotten most of hair loss back. I couldn't be happier, really. It did...

    Does Rogaine stop the shedding?

    It stopped my shedding. I have had slight hair loss for several years, and in the last 2-3 years it had become noticibly thin on the top/crown of my head (in addition to a bit of a receeding hairline). About 3-4 months ago I started noticing excessive hair loss on my pillow each morning. I...
