I use kirkland foam 5% in the morning and in the evening I use 5% liquid. I end up with little white flakes in my hair. It also seems to build a white layer on my crown. I can sort of scrape it off my scalp. Im feeling that this wont do my scalp any good and probably wont help my hair loss. Is...

Yeah im fully aware of the scars. Will it be possible to create the illusion of having a head of hair or will I always have a bald patch? Without concealers I mean. If I cant maintain what I have, which I probably cant, theres no point really? Im doing all I can at present to slow it down, Is...

I dont think I would want to rely on concealer for the rest of my life. Is there any pictures about for Norwood 2.5 with low density? I cant really find any. I understand I will need a few surgeries. Would it be best to go FUE or Strip or should I leave that down to the Dr to decide. Thanks

Yeah. I use kirkland 5%, Generic proscar 1.25 mg a day and use Nizoral 2% about 3 times a week.

Hey everyone. Im looking for some honest advise. I am thinking of a hair transplant in the next couple of years but I want to know your opinions. Im 23 and balding for about 4 years. I have been on the big 3 since March 2009. As you can see if pretty aggressive and no doubt I will be a NW7...

It has definitely slowed down my hair loss. I have been on the big 3 (nizoral, minoxidil and propecia) for about 3 years. You need to get on these if you want to stand any chance of fighting this.

I am in the same boat as you. Ive just gone 23 and my hair is worse than yours at the crown. You need to get on finasteride as soon as possible and slow it down. Get on minoxidil asap too. At our age you have to face that the only thing you can is slow it down. Dont get a hair transplant. You will be...

Im worried about the density too, my crown is thinner than the rest of my head but still has some hair and im hoping when I buzz it wont be noticeable. See my other thread for pics any comments appreciated ;)

cool, well im thinking of doing it just before I go on holiday, do you reckon the back and sides will need to be shorter than on top ? oh and just out of interest does chlorine have any effect on hair loss? cheers

what does everyone else think ?

cheers for the reply, what do you reckon for the length/grade? Im planning just to start long then get shorter and shorter.

hey guys just wanting advise on what my head will look like after a buzz cut, sick of hiding my bald patch, too much time and effort. Do you think if I buzz it you will see a bald patch or will I be to sort of blend it in with the rest of my hair if its so short. Don't want to buzz it and...
