I saw an article on how to build your own laser hair comb a long time ago for like $15-30. I didn't make a note of it since I figured if I ever need to build one, I could just Google it. But I can't seem to find it. Do these things even work? And if so, is it possible to construct one since...

Does anyone know if the Laser Hair Combs work? I saw one for sale for $600, but they say it only lasts for 3 years. I remember reading somewhere online that someone made their own at home for like $15-30, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. If they do work, what are the best ones?

Well, I think I may still try rogaine instead of propecia this time around. It seems to me that lately people are using Rogaine as more of a supplement to their regimen rather than the sole item in their fight against baldness. Why is this?

I added pics and cleaned up my story so it's more readable. Thanks for looking.

Well, the main side effect I had was the testicular pain. That started very soon after I started taking propecia. After I stopped taking propecia, the pain went away. Also, the only thing I was taking was propecia. I mean, I was taking a multivitamin also at the time, but it was definetly...
