For some reason my hair only grows a few inches on the top and then falls out. I end up never cutting it because it stays the same length all the time lol. It also makes it so i never grow my sides out long because it looks too uneven. Will minoxidil make the top grow longer? Im actually more concerned with length rather than growing new hair. Thanks for responses :jump:

The maximum length your hair can attain usually reflects the health of your hair. So yes, regular hair loss treatments like minoxidil and finasteride should allow you to have longer hair (especially if it falls out after growing only a few inches, it means you're losing your hair man).
Healthy hair grows for aproximately 3 years before falling out, it's different with everyone so it could be 2 years for Mr A and 5 years for Mr B. But in your case, your hair lasts only a few month, it means the follicles have started miniaturizing, and it will only get worse unless you do something =\

wow, thats alarming hah. Hope minoxidil and the nizoral shampoo is enough to brighten up that situation.

Minoxidil can make your hair growing twice faster, it's the case for me

good, glad its working for you. Maybe it will help me too.
