Flashback to 2015:

I was at a store and I saw an old friend of mine from highschool, and I noticed he was starting to suffer from diffuse hairloss. At the time, it didn't seem that bad, and the dude was his usual cheerful (almost annoyingly so) self that I remembered.

Now:

I saw him at the mall, and at first I didn't recognize him. Dude's gone the "Just shave it bro" route and buzzed it right down; appears to be NW4 or maybe even 5 and has grown out the beard in attempt to pull off the "stone cold" look every guy hopes will compensate.

and he didn't even say a word. Just looked at me, nodded, and kept on walking.

Maybe it was just a bad day or something, but for this guy, that seems like a REAL bad day to wind up like that. I also notice he hasn't uploaded a new facebook picture in about 4 years. He just seemed dead inside when I saw him.

Pretty accurate description of me.

I deleted my Facebook a few days ago. Seeing my picture of back then almost made me cry.

Whatever you do, do not show him this forum. He already shaved and I dont think its good now to get back to Finasterid and 20k hairtransplant. .

My thoughts remained unchanged from a year ago; Follica and Shiseido are the only near-term hopes. I think "Tsuji" will probably meet their timeline as they're obviously hellbent on it, but that is going to be so expensive I wouldn't even bother with it.

Safe bet given their current statuses that the former two will probably be out in 2019.

Other than that; there is nothing on the horizon and it's almost a certainty that future treatments will also involve wounding neogenesis or stem cell cultivation.

The good news, is that the science regarding the trinity I'm optimistic about in regards to humans is clearly viable and they're all close.

The bad news, is that should some cruel twist of fate (probably involving business rather than science at this point) result in a dropping of the torch, there are no companies set to pick it up.
