Wow guys! it has been quite a long time since I have logged in here. Lot of old faces, I remember and wonder if anybody still has any recollection as to who I am. I see my old posts are still here. I cant log back into my old files, as the email I had linked to that account is long dead.

Seeing my hair back then, I used to b**ch a lot about my diffuse loss. It has gotten a lot worse as I have been off my regimen for over 2 years. It is not bad, but I basically HAVE TO keep my hair shaved to the bone these days to keep a non bald look going and even then still its hard. Why did I quit? Ran into a lot of financial troubles, coupled with a very fucked up ex gf I was with for a good year, even further complicating my financial woes.

What has happened without the meds? My hairline has regressed somewhat leaving a whole swathe of tiny blonde hairs, exposing my already huge temples, my diffuse thinning has gotten to the point where I must buzz to guard 0 every 4-5 days. Add to the fact that my very potent greying genes have begun to kick in too, and that Ive taken up smoking and its safe to say. Ive gotten a lot worse. As I am now :):

can i giver you a hairstyle suggestion that would hide your thinning quite well?

since your line actually doesnt look bad, shave the top with a 2 or 3 blade, then shave the thicker sides and back with a 1. It would look real good to hide the thinning.

my other suggestion is to get back on a regimen

You've lost quite a lot of hair since quitting, but on the upside you look good with the balding buzzcut, suits you sir :punk:

So what are you thinking from here....get back on a regimen or are you happy to keep it buzzed?

Hey, thanks for the replies. Well to be fair, even when I had more hair, I did the shorter hair on the side thing and even then I could barely pull it off because my hair was so thin up top...just had a lot of it. Still do just the calibre of it has decrease significantly. I used to be on nizoral, proscar 1mg as well as rogaine foam. Never had any side effects really, but a lot of people including my boss claimed he had ED from it. Apparently some doctor fessed up to him, (even tho ive never heard of rogaine causing ED) its a lot worse for the dick than the studies indicate. Dunno. Either way im on proscar for now and thinking about going back on foam. I sort of quit,in addition to the finances,simply because I never had really any results, apart from as I see now maintenance. More than anything the loss accelerated due to the heavy stresses I went through thanks to my ex gf :)

I guess this highlights the perils of diffuse loss. On the one hand, you maintain a good hairline so you think you're doing OK. On the other, you can see it all go in just a couple of years.

You look ace with the bald look. You'd be silly to do anything about it at this stage. Failing new treatments in a decade, I think you should rock this look.
