    Sighconot's Story - (19.5 /looking for advice)

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Recently re-reading the revivogen instructions, I see that it suggests "massaging" it into the scalp. Philly, do you follow that and if so how do you go about doing it? I'm definitely seeing what looks like regrowth now, but I'm also seeing...

    Sighconot's Story - (19.5 /looking for advice)

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) I'm seeing a lot of little hairs all over my temples. Hopefully they're new regrowth, and not just old remnants... I'm optimistic though. In another month or two we'll know for sure. Showering in between the minoxidil and the revivogen makes...

    Sighconot's Story - (19.5 /looking for advice)

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Good news: I don't want to get too excited, but I'm seeing more and more signs that there's regrowth, or at least, maintenance. Bad news: The flakes are still there, and I'm uprooting vellus hairs in scratching them out. Thoughts? Concerns...

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Hey Philly, Since your last post, I've really put an effort into separating revivogen and rogaine applications with showers. I'll try to get the shower cap and implement that into my regimen as soon as I can too. In the meanwhile, I'm not...

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Thanks for the help Philly... I'll start following your suggestions from today. Perhaps the mixing of rogaine and revivogen was partially to blame.. @fandango: I don't understand your question... rogaine / liquid are not mutually exclusive...

    Sighconot's Story - (19.5 /looking for advice)

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Ugh. Today I just got incredibly frustrated and tried to scratch out all the revivogen-residue sh*t that was clinging to my hair. By the time I was done, I probably pulled out 100-200 hairs. It actually gave me a better picture of where I...

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) I'd rather not post anything at the moment... I think it'd look downright horrible. I'll take a picture to check though... if it's better than I think, I might put it up. Otherwise I'll wait until the 3-month mark. :-/ --- @Philly - thanks...

    Sighconot's Story - (19.5 /looking for advice)

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Well, it's close to a month now. I've been applying the treatments diligently, but so far there's been no real improvement. In fact, the hair loss has worsened... hair is falling out all the time, whenever I brush my hand through my hair...

    Re: Sighconot's story - (19.5-y-o looking for advice) Well, it looks like there might be some trouble with ordering the finasgel. It's a shame, because it seems like a very exciting treatment, but at this point I just don't have the patience to wait the 3-4 weeks to figure everything out w/ the...

    Re: What now? 19.5-y-o, 1.5 years in and looking for advice. Ok, Philly - I'll order everything tonight. I've finally gotten around to looking up some information on Finasgel. I didn't realize it was so new... seems very promising. With the minoxidil, is there any reason why instead of ordering...

    Re: What now? 19.5-y-o, 1.5 years in and looking for advice. Ah, so I just looked up what the Spectral DNC "Bottle" looks like. I didn't know, so at first it sounded like you were recommending I buy one random bottle, empty its contents and then fill it up with the contents of another bottle -...

    Re: What now? 19.5-y-o, 1.5 years in and looking for advice. Ok. Philly, thanks again for your advice. Here are my questions. 1. Finasgel seems very interesting and, since I'm awake for more than an hour before I head for college in the morning, it could really fit well into my schedule. My...

    Re: What now? 19.5-y-o, 1.5 years in and looking for advice. RaginDeamon is right - just get it off Amazon. Unfortunately, the hairline is definitely the hardest place to apply toppik. You'll need a little practice to get it just right, but having a "toppik spray applicator" (look it up) will...

    Re: What now? 19.5-y-o, 1.5 years in and looking for advice. Philly, thank you so much for the advice - I really appreciate it. I didn't even know something like finasgel existed... I'll look into what you said when I have some time tomorrow and read up a bit on the main HairLossTalk.com page. Hey...
