[youngguyhairloss]

Looking not bad , seems like you still have a strong hairline so in normal pictures it probably looks like u have good hair. By the way, what's the tgel you use ? Do you have a link to the product or the full name for the product? thanks

It's just called TGEL pretty easy and inexpensive to purchase I get mine at Walmart .. It also last a long time I use it EOD

Regrowth and decreased shedding? You are the perfect candidate since your hair line is decent and you already respond very good after only 3 month. Just stay consistent and I am sure you will get even better results. Congrats!

yeah i mean i used minoxidil before for 8 straight months but after the 4th month my scalp was terribly irritated and was that way until i quit and was off for 3 months straight.. when i started back up what has really helped me is tgel consistent usage EOD to keep the itchy dandruff inflamed scalp at bay.

Hair definitely looks better in the top picture. Minoxidil does work, for some men, even if it might be temporary.

Good luck.

Would say the average gain is around twenty five percent denser. But you had a good amount to begin with.

Thank you! Everyone says my hair isn't so bad cause my hairline is somewhat intact , but having diffused hair I believe is the worse even with a hairline ..

every day is seems like im not gaining anything i buzz my head once every week just because i feel uncomfortable when it grows out maybe thats why i can't tell if im doing better or not... but look at my pictures from before in my eyes at least i can see a small difference just after 3.5 months of restarting minoxidil what do you guys think?

Looks like theres some improvement.

Since you are already buzzing, and have a really strong hairline try taking it down to a #0 . That would probably look like a full head of hair

thats more of a last resort ive tried a #1 guard and it just makes me look bald especially in the sun.

For some reason the top before and after photos show improvement but the ones posted lower don't look as good as the after photo you posted above. Its amazing how your hairline is still maintaining. Your pattern is going from vertex to hairline, basically the opposite of a Type A pattern.

Yeah that's because the two botttom before and after are taken directly in front of my window in direct sunlight rather than the bathroom light ... but yes my hairloss is so strange to me I still have a hairline and my temples are still intact but the hair behind the line is thinning ontop of that my hair is thinning in patches diffused I've done a full blood Analysis and everything came back normal this is just the pattern I'm losing my hair

2 weeks away from 4 months.. hair is #2 or #2.5 guard on top

Looks like some regrowth to me, but it could be lighting or camera angle.

 

[youngguyhairloss]

6 month-ish ... shedding alot but maintaining

btw just got a haircut yesterday #2 guard on top

 

[youngguyhairloss]

7 months

nice progress. i think if you buzz it with a #5 or #6, it will look nicer (fuller)?

I did #2 once, and it made my baldness more evident. I found that (for me) a #7 or #8 is ideal. I def. look a full head.

 

[youngguyhairloss]

10 months .... i find comfort in knowing my hair isnt getting worse (same length as all the other photos)

Nice progress. Why not try Finasteride?
