Foam in the morning, liquid at night?

Should i be fine if i've been on minoxidil for 7 months now and i've got no dark circles or winkles??

What i'm wondering is, how much time would it take to lose all the hairs gained/maintained with minoxidil??? After you quit minoxidil, would the balding process continue at the same rate as if you would had never take minoxidil?

I'll be happy if i get good results for 10+ years and I'm positive it can happen. So far, i've been on 5% for 6 months and i'm happy with what i see. Always liked your post, Warlord. Keep up the good work.

I wasted a year on laser before juming on minoxidil. Don't waste your time like i did.

haha yeah good point...why is he even bothering posting on this forum anyways?? :doh: A lot of people don't seems to get it with minoxidil. Even if it's "only" buying me time i'm buying! If i can gain/maintain what i have for 10+ years than i'll be happy. Who would rather be bald at 35 instaed of...

Stick with rogaine and it should work. Your existing hair will be thicker and darker (better coverage) and will also grow faster in the coming months. It can take up to a year to really see the results of regrowth. I'm in the same boat as you, i'd be happy just keeping what i have! I'm at month...

welcome to the club! ;) 1. You should see results in month 2 or 3. Your hair will grow faster, they will be darker and thicker. That's for the existing hair that you still have. You may never get regrowth but if you do, it should be at around month 4-6. It will be little blonde/pale...

Looks good! But please, change the title of your topic for "5 months minoxidil/finasteride". ;)

I use it 5 times a week. I use head and shoulders the other 2 days. nizoral does wonder for my oily scalp (especially on my temples)

I agree 100%. Maybe minoxidil is only buying me time, or maybe not. Let's all look at Warlord's story: 17 years on minoxidil and it's still working. I'm in my mid 30's....if minoxidil is giving me another 10 years with a decent amount of hairs on my head (Norwood 2-3) then i'd be more than happy! (considering my...

That's what i think too. What we don't really know is would the MBP would start back at zero with the new minoxidil thickend hair. I would love to know and be sure that's what would happen if i'd quit minoxidil. I'd go on for a year or two and take a 6 months break etc...

I'm guessing they would slowly go back to their miniaturized state. But then again, would it be faster than normal process?? I mean, it took years before my hair miniaturized and eventually starting to fall... should we expect the same thing once we quit minoxidil or the miniaturized/fall will be...

Are you the one in your avatar? If so, you have a shaved head, you shouldn't have any problems now...

Congrats, I'm on the same regimen and it's been 5 months now. I have the same balding pattern as you. I've had good progress from month 3 to 4 but now it seems like nothing really happened in the last month. My hair are definetely thicker and darker. No significiant signs of new regrowth...
