Its been seven years since I first started freaking out about my hairloss. Back in 2003 I was a very active user here, desperatly looking at all solutions and ultimately spending a few thousand dollars on various products. I tried Propecia, Rogain, Folligen Spray, LaserComb, Emu Oil, and other various creams and treatments.
I was sure that by 34 (my age now) I would be one bald motherfucker.
When I think back to all the money and time I spent worrying about my hair, I realize I could have saved so much pain and agony by knowing what I know now.
I am a diffuse thinner, not a receder. These days, my hair is still thin at the temples. I keep my hair short because it is thin and that makes it harder to tell. And sure, nobody mistakes me for being 22 anymore.
BUT
I LOVE my hair! Despite whats lost, it looks great, and it has not gotten noticeably worse in these seven years (most of the damage was done before that).
What do I owe it do? Without a doubt, hands down, FINASTERIDE. It is the ONLY product I use, and heres the thing, I do not even use it that much! I take a 1mg pill once or twice a week, and thats it! That is all I need to maintain a healthy, sexy head of hair! There is zero impact on my sex drive (I'm more of a stud than ever), its cheap, and I don't ever sweat if I take it or not. If I go weeks without, my scalp becomes irritated, serving as a reminder to be more diligent.
So my advice to the newbies is,, don't overdo it! If the loss is not too agressive, maybe all you need is a little finasteride to tip the balance in the right direction, and you're worry free.
Heres my hairline today, after 10 years of hairloss. Again, most damage was done before I started treatment. At this rate, I expect to have a nice head of hair well into old age.
