to sum up briefly. 25 years old. been using finasteride since april 2007 after noticing slight thinning on top plus receded left temple, maybe very slightly on the right as well. looking at old photos i think i,ve been receding for a few years. hair is very good on top now, it's just that i can;t get the same progress on the hairline. left side just the same, think the right one is slowly catching up though. have been useing spectral dnc not about 1x per day since around nov 2007 with heaps of days missed as well. can;t make up my mind to just stick with proscar and nizoral and drop the minoxidil as i;d be sorta happy to just keep what i;ve got. would be a lot cheaper and hassle free. or should i get serious with 2x per day min application. so much conflicting advice with minoxidil, do i risk massive shedding through r foam, crap greasy hair through liquid. waste of money etc. maybe kirkland at night foam in morning to save time and money. would really really be greatful for some helpful advice. as this could make or break my current hair situation. cheers

Correct me if I am wrong but from what I've heard topical minoxidil has a half life of 22 hours in the skin. If you want to try to achieve better result with same amount of hassle(1x a day) it makes sense to switch to a stronger version of minoxidil, like the 15%.

thats quite interesting. i used spectral dnc 1X dailly mainly because i thought it would be more effective. thing isi think i don't really want 2 upset my hairline 2 much,eg shedding, i can live with what i've got, norwood2ish. its more maintanance, not sure how effective proscar is at that? then i chance my mind and think dam it! let blast my hairline with as muh minoxidil as possible and get loads of regrowth. :punk: what would u any of u guys do? :lost:
