Big 2 Vs. Big 3.. (big 2 Contemplating Big 3)

[FBP]

Been on finasteride and keto shampoo.. Decent density retain as well as holding hairline.

Ideally I'd like it this way since I never have to mess with my hair/head thus not think about it too often. (except why am I on this forum..ha)

I'm pretty sure rogain/minoxidil (going to big 3) does nothing but make existing hairs look thicker. Nothing more than that. Or could it rescue/keep some of my mini hairs (that only appear on frontal hairline border) alive longer than just doing Big 2..? Is it worth my trouble to add it in your opinion? Life long decision, no big d..

Dude add minoxidil.

I think minoxidil is best for regrowth. I've seen some progress photos where people around NW3/4 add minoxidil after already being on finasteride, and the difference can be spectacular. It doesn't have to be that expensive or that much work to apply it, and it's pretty safe. I had some minor chest pains when I started minoxidil but they went away very quickly. If you think you have something to gain density-wise it's worth it. But everything you gain will be dependent on continuous usage.

I have Foligain F5, which has an easy pump so I just part my hair in a few places and pump the foam directly onto the scalp and it literally takes 20 seconds to apply.
