Hello,
I am 21 and my hair has been thinning since I was 18. Since then, I have used toppik and dermmatch together to conceal the thinning. It's crazy how with the right technique, I can make my hair look thick and full. I am sick of those products though. Dark brown powder covers my bathroom, gets under my fingernails constantly, and probably shows through my hair in bright, direct sunlight.
I am about to move to a new city, and I was thinking this could be the perfect time to just buzz my hair. I'd be starting fresh in a new city, with nobody who knows me. I wanted to see what you all on this website think. I attached some photos so you can see my hair without any concealers in it. Do you think with a buzz cut, the thinning appearance could be reduced? What guard should I do? 1? 1.5? I just want a low-maintenance haircut. I am sick of spending an hour styling my hair with concealers.
I also don't use rogaine enough because I hate styling my hair every day. If I buzzed it, I could start using rogaine twice a day, like they recommend. I just don't want to buzz it and then regret it. Help! Thanks!
Also, sorry for the creepy face-blacked-out photos lol! When putting myself on the internet like this, I don't want to reveal my identity!!
