    Why Not Suicide? Balding Since 15, 23 Now, Can't Deal With It

    I'm giving finasteride a try. Too scared to go on minoxidil at the moment since I've read far too many stories of people of people shedding hair that didn't come back. If finasteride and/or minoxidil don't do much, that other stuff would probably do less. Like I said, my donor area is unstable, and my balding is...

    I have a large area of balding for my age and.. According to this forum, studies, and doctors: 1) Meds don't work well enough to produce a significant difference for most people, if at all. And they also may give you horrific side effects at any point in the future, and could continue after...

    Nizoral(ketoconazole) No Effect On Dandruff?

    Even after using 2% keto every other day for the past two weeks, I've had better results from just ONE day of Neutrogena's T/SAL (salicylic acid) shampoo. What gives? I'm leaving it on twice for 5 minutes each.

    Does Hair Thickening Mean The Reversal Of Miniaturization?

    What proof have you? LLLT is recognized in medical literature and by the vast majority of doctors as effective. 2% keto shampoo is proven to increase hair diameter. Their is a study of 2% keto cream with photos comparable to minoxidil results if not better.

    Minoxidil And Concealers Is Time Consuming Routine, What Would You Do?

    Lol. I haven't taken minoxidil long enough to notice any benefit. Concealer is working for me, so I'm a little less desperate for quicker results that minoxidil could give, and wouldn't want my hair to get worse from it either. I guess I'm leaning toward waiting on finasteride for a few months since...

    How Do You Tell Your Girlfriend You Have A Hair System?

    As hard is it may be to believe, a low density hairpiece is still quite a bit of hair, a full head of hair by anyone standards. Google "extra light hair system".

    Trouble Washing Out Caboki Hair Fiber Concealer

    I find I have to scratch and claw for 10 - 15 minutes to get it all out, then I shampoo. Will shampooing first get all/most of it out easier? What do you guys do and how long does it take?
