first off, nice one on taking the plunge and getting on finasteride :) it's really pretty cheap if you buy generic, i'm all but unemployed (lotta casual cash in hand work but nothing stable) and i can afford fincar pretty easily. ANYWAY.
hard to tell about progress in your new pics as it's a different length and style of hair, but i will say that it definitely looks a lot better - was a bit 'verbal kint'-ish before but not at all now. keep at it man, good luck :)

Re: Afrik123's Story - IPDATE!!!

Update:

4 months on finasteride
7 months on minoxidil and nizoral.

Been noticing A LOT of little hairs (regrowth) on temples especially and mid frontal regions.

Pretty happy with progress so far, and NO sides at all

Forgot to mention:

No sides from finasteride.

Some irratation from minoxidil and nizoral. No redness just itchiness. Not a big deal.

I only apply minoxidil to the front of my hair. 1/2 ml to each temple and 1ml to centre island twice a day.

Pretty sure ive regrown quite a bit of hair on my hairline.

I have absolutely no crown loss. I think the hair on my mid scalp to crown are not genetically sensitive to DHT b/c its as thick as when I was a child. But the front definitely suffers from thinning. I think I am destined to be a norwood 4a.

Do you guys think my regiman will maintain my hair indefinitely or just slow it down. Im 24 now the baseline is me 1 year ago at 23.

Finally what norwwod do u guys reckon I am?

Norwood 2. I think, not sure because you posted pics of the hair styled. But great improvement nonetheless!
