Where are people sourcing their vehicle supplies?

I live in a state where ethanol is not legal. I am planning to make batches of CB by dissolving it in liquid minoxidil. The most recent test results showed best results at 7.5% solution. Minoxidil is 2oz., do I put 1.5 grams of CB in to make it?

Yeah, I've thought about switching to liquid to give it a shot but I've heard it's more difficult to apply. I use it twice a day, only in the front and then I apply S5 after it has dried, also twice a day. I'm close to just dropping it, it's only made more hair fall out and hasn't caused any...

Stopped taking finasteride due to sides, so that is not an option for me unfortunately. I may try a higher concentration of minoxidil. I just expected to see a little regrowth or even maintenance using minoxidil rather than increased hair losss with no positive results. The reason I ask is that I know...

I've been on minoxidil foam for 7 months. I haven't had any regrowth. I never had a significant shed all at one time, however, I have consistently lost more hair while I have been on it. I'm not on finasteride anymore and haven't been for several months, but I was not losing hair anywhere close to this...

Not sure how helpful it will be but I've been on Rogaine foam for 7 months, using it only in the hairline. I have had no regrowth and have lost a fair amount of hair. Maybe it was the shed and it will grow back, but I'm considering not using it after I run out of my last bottle because it's...

I've been using 2% mico once a day 4-5x per week for about one month. I realize this cannot be used permanently. How long/frequently have people used this stuff before stopping it?

I posted a similar response above, but yes - I do think rogaine has made my hair worse. I never had any shedding prior to using it and now my hairline (only area where I apply it) loses several thick long hairs every day in the shower, and when i style my hair or apply rogaine the morning and...

Think I'm having similar results, although I haven't been on it as long as you have. I've been on rogaine foam for over 6 months now. I've only been using it on the hairline/temples because that is my problem area; I'm still a NW2 at this point. I never really had what I could consider an...

I also would like a source for this information. I've heard it but never seen scientific data. My initial question was not whether alcohol can cause male pattern baldness, clearly it is genetic. But granted most male members of this forum have male pattern baldness, my question was the extent to which alcohol use can...

I do S5 first, wait 5-10 minutes, then Rogaine. But then again, my results have not exactly been positive . . . yet.

I use a cap full of rogaine foam in the morning and at night. I'm also on S5 twice a day. I'm an NW2 with diffuse thinning, especially at the hairline. Not really noticeable sides other than dark circles which may or may not be from the minoxidil. Just wondering if no gains this far in is normal.

I've been on minoxidil for 6 months, I've seen no regrowth. My hair looks worse than it did when I started. I am aware of the initial shed phase, but I thought that typically occured earlier in the process. I did not start shedding until about 4.5 months into it and have continued to shed at the...

This has probably been brought up here before, so I apologize in advance. I ran a search for "alcohol" but mostly came up with results pertaining to creating a RU vehicle. What are people's experiences with the correlation between alcohol use and hair loss? I have recently (within the last 6...

Re: How to deal with side effects from finasteride Let me know how the 0.25 mg dose works for you. I started on 1mg for about 4 months before getting sides. I reduced to 0.5 mg for a month, sides were initially reduced, but ultimately came back. I have thought about trying a 0.25 dose bc...
