I don't do the typical wait until minoxidil dries then apply it. That's a little too inconvenient too me. I rub the cream in on top of minoxidil easily on my vertex, skip the middle b/c my hair is way to thick to get it in my scalp there, and apply it on my front hair line, which is really thick now...

I take Folligen cream and the reason why is b/c it is a lot cheaper than tricomin. It really helped big time on my front hair line, but didn't do much for my vertex thin sport. My vertex is peaked out. I dont' think there is a product that will magically regrow hair after you have given it...

It's not hard to apply minoxidil twice a day. I do it when I brush my teeth. I live with my gf and she knows I do it. You have to get over minoxidil being an extra chore and time consuming. Train your brain it is part of your routine. Patience my young Jedi. minoxidil doesn't make my hair look like...

I'm still using the cream, but will switch to the spray next. I order everything in bulk, so I'll be using the cream for a while. Last week I added revivogen to see if it fills in the back of my head. I couldn't be happier with my front hairline. Revivogen leaves my hair oily feeling...

I apply folligen immediately after applying minoxidil. I don't wait for the minoxidil to dry like you are suppose too. I apply folligen every night, minoxidil morning and night.

hair across my forehead, covering my forehead. I had a big gap in front of each temple once. Note the straight shot of my forehead shows tremendous growth across my forehead (temples mostly)

No I didn't mean propecia is any different that finpecia. No adding minoxidil wasn't the key. I have been on minoxidil for 7 years. At the 4th year, added propecia and got good results. At my 5th year, (9 months on propecia, still on minoxidil) I decided to experiment with dropping propecia...

All pics are after pics. They aren't great pics as the temple pic doesn't show how it is totally refilled with hair. The light makes it still look receded but it's really more straight than receded. I need a digital camera I guess. The front and middle parts of my head experienced...

I've never tried tricomin. I think it is too expensive. However, I give Folligen two thumbs up. I agree with shedmaster. tricomin is lab tested, but field tests, such as shedmasters, means more than lab tests to me. It's really hard to decipher what works and doesn't work on this site b/c...

These pics were taken while I held a lamp over the top of my head, revealing the worst condition possible to hide a bald spot. Therefore, in moderate light you cannot tell at all my hair is thinning, unless i spike it or wet it. Sorry for not having before pics, but as a reference, I once was...

The laser comb success is intriguing. On this site about 3 years ago, several threads were populated withsuggesting finger massaging the scalp. Some actually believed that increasing the circulation in your head by massaging it for 15 minutes helped. People swore to come back with the results...

Chromedomefear, Most copper peptide users use either folligen or tricomin. Folligen is much more potent and one bottle lasts much longer than a month. And Folligen is a third the price of tricomin. Folligen comes in three forms, liquid spray, lotion, cream. BTW, I didn't just start...

finasteride Geez, if you can't take finasteride, I don't know. I wish I couldn't take it sometimes. I feel it kills my libido. I'm certainly not the expert, and you will get mixed answers. If I couldn't take finasteride, I would personally take this regime: Minoxidil Copper peptide (folligen or tricomin)...

I've used the Stamina Rx sexual stimulant and it works fantastic. The recommened dosage is 1-2 tablets and two is too much. It sends blood rushing to both heads, so your face gets flushed also. Gives some people a headache, causes my sinuses to clog. However, if it rushes blood to the...

veteran Listen to the seasoned veteran's like me and others. I'm 39 yo and been using products for 6 years. Made mistakes, and here is what works. You have to use 3 different products. Propecia ( I use finpecia, it's about $50 cheaper a month) Minoxidil (I use Kirkland's, saves about...
