Actually my hairline never filled in completely. But with a good hairstyle I'm able to cover my receding temples to the point where it's not noticeable. As for the hair on my crown, yes it did grow back much thicker and right now I'm just maintaining.
Here's my thread from 2013 but never updated it though.

The only difference now is that I use 0.5mg finasteride everyday and 2ml minoxidil at night (1ml for the front and 1ml for the back) to cover my entire scalp.
I would start...
It was a pretty simple regime.
Regime:
- Rogaine foam in the morning
- 2ml Kirkland 5% minoxidil liquid at night
- roughly 0.8mg of finasteride before bed (5mg proscar cut into sixths)

I just wanted to post my one year update.
I started rogaine in 2012 since my hairline was receding at the temples. But I was never aware that I was losing hair on top until I took my first progress pic (I never had a chance to look at the top of my head :D). I don't...
sounds like you're using liquid minoxidil
personally i use the foam in the morning. since it drys very quickly and doesn't leave your hair wet/greasy looking
then use the liquid at night
as others mentioned i would apply twice a day.
personally i use foam in the morning, since it only takes a couple minutes to dry and it doesn't make your hair greasy looking.
as for the second application I use liquid minoxidil a couple hours before bed time.
for me it took about 3 months...
