Went to Costco yesterday and all they had is the Rogaine brand foam. They no longer stock the liquid version either Rogaine or Kirkland brand. Have you seen the Kirkland (Costco) brand foam at your local Costco yet? The Rogaine brand foam is very expensive even at Costco. Have you seen...

Boo Randley was a good man. You're not.

What a relief you're not another Bob Booley! I agree with you. Anybody who've thought about not going to a wedding or funeral due to fear of what others would think about his hairloss should tape the above post to his mirror.

I wonder why minoxidil, which you apply topically on the head, would cause growth elsewhere on the body, such as the arms, chest, underarms, etc. It sounds like something Propecia would do.

I stand corrected regarding the hair transplant comment. Notice it's appearance, not physical attributes. Big difference.

This applies to both almostbald and Gunner: your major problem is not your baldness but your insecurity. Hiding from your female friend or moving to "America" will do nothing about your baldness, but doing something about your self-confidence will. almostbald, Ten years ago I knew a 23...

Start on propecia only when you see an increase in hairloss.

Haha, jinx83, I was thinking the same thing! Anyone who've seen Gunner's photos knows that he doesn't need a hairpiece.

Now why did you make that up?

How do you keep minoxidil from dripping down your forehead when applying it to the hairline? I estimate I lose about 250 ul per ml from this so I use a total of 2 ml to the hairline and crown.

I agree with bombscience; however, you could still apply the conditioner to the ends of the hair provided you're careful not to let it touch the scalp. Rinse immediately after applying and your hair won't feel stripped.

These shampoos do not sit on your head long enough to cause such effects. If you were to apply Nizoral to your scalp and do not rinse off daily and you do this over a long enough period of time (e.g. 3 months), then you might see some effects. F.Y.I. SLS also causes acne, but you'd need to...

Copy and paste from Propecia product review on Men's Proven Treatments on this site: "When Propecia enters the system, the sudden removal of DHT from the follicles can sometimes shock a large number of follicles to enter into the resting phase at the same time. Its known as a synchronization...

I take it nobody really knows if minoxidil sheds the same group of hairs as finasteride?

Does minoxidil shed the same subset of hairs as finasteride? If so, suppose a person has just gone through a finasteride-induced shed and he starts to take minoxidil, any resulting min-induced shedding would not be as large an effect since the follicles are already synchronized? Am I missing...
