FOLLIGEN WHICH TYPE?

[Leroy La Qua]

I am looking to add folligen to my regimen but am not sure whether to go with the lotion, cream or spray. What do most folligen users recommend? is there any difference in effectiveness betwen these three variants.
i am predominantly looking to treat the temples and hairline and already use a spray in the form of american crew revitilise.

maybe the cream would be stronger, but I heard even the manufacturer recommends every other day use, and most people dilute it 50% you could use 100% on the hairline perhaps. Definitely get the liquid spray. I'm not really an expert on the hairline for copper peptides. I just know the hairline needs a good anti-androgen.

I wonder if using folligen everyday is counter productive as opposed to every other day?

that would make sense, considering that it tells your skin to repair itself. we don't want it constantly in that mode even when it is fixed. i might use it 3 times a week or every 3rd day now. any thoughts on that? the stuff is a lot cheaper than minoxidil.

if it is the copper, they why do we need the peptides? if the peptides play a role, then why were just three applied for? of course folligen has those three, but they are mixed with may others whose effects I don't know. I'm going to do something to find out how much stuff is in tricomin and folligen, and make my own tri-amino stuff, add arginine, and mix in a small amount of folligen and certain oils. if the copper is as dilute as i think it is, I think i can make this stuff very cheaply. I just need one concentrate that will last years that I can shake and add a cap full of to another bottle that lasts me a few months. then i won't have to buy more copper for a while.

It's almost certainly not just the copper. Presumably, it's the SOD activity of the copper-peptides which is a very important factor.

if the peptides play a role, then why were just three applied for?

What "three" are you referring to? Three WHAT?? The specific compound in Tricomin (which happens to include three particular amino acids in its structure, along with copper) is what was applied for. That's one specific compound.

of course folligen has those three, but they are mixed with may others whose effects I don't know. I'm going to do something to find out how much stuff is in tricomin and folligen, and make my own tri-amino stuff, add arginine, and mix in a small amount of folligen and certain oils.

Are you claiming that you're able to synthesize the exact same compound that's in Tricomin?

Bryan, what are your thoughts about applying folligen to the scalp every day as opposed to every other day?


Counter productive?
