how discouraging..

[jeffsss]

Well i'm almost afraid to get on minoxidil.. athough i have a bottle of it sitting in front of my face.

I know that i should wait to add serious products to my regimine.. so i'm not sure if i should hold off on it for now or not.... I freak out when i lose 100+ hairs in the shower.. so minoxidil might destroy me.

iv'e been to 1 regular Doctor and 3 dermatologists, and they've all told me different things... what did i learn from them?? NOTHING!!!! they all have different opinions.. which means simply that noone knows the best method of hair growth/maintiance.

the problem with pictures is that they're misleading.. most arnt high powered high resolution pics.. it's hard to see thinning hair with these photos.. I think your mind may play tricks on you to a point.. but trust me.. you can tell if your losing hair...

while lathering up your hair.. you 'feel' less hair.. while your outside and it's a little chilly out.. you 'feel' coldness on your scalp.. not on the sides.. only the top.. and it's frightening.

If you want to maximize your opportunities of getting any regrowth you have to get the full big 3.


The shed is not something for sure. It could happen, it could not.

If it happens it´s just temporary, and it´s for good.

And yes, your mind can play tricks on yourself. No doubt. Feelings play a main role in perceptions.

Judge using pics. Same camera, same lighting, same lenght of hair=no trick=plain truth.

If you feel unable to judge yourself ask another people to objetively compare your pics.

People on the forums are always a great help for that.

MAybe now you´r terrified to check your status. Get some courage and take some pics. You´ll regret later if you don´t.

solo, thanks for your advise.

I have pics on my computer, i just dont want to put them on the web.

I'm really terrified of sheds... after seeing 'polls' etc.. the vast majortiy of people do NOT see their hair return to baseline. especailly propecia sheds which i may, or maynot be going through.

minoxidil is different. it even says on the box. propecia doesnt say it anywhere, not on their pamplet, website etc... tehy say nothing about 'sheds' which leads me to believe that they're not supposed to happen.

then again, all i really want back is my hair line.. i'd rather have a nice hair line then a balds pot on the back of my head..

man I have 2 ridiculus bald u's for tempels ,I have a very defined hrse shoe line that rides far down the back of my head, in the son I look bald all over exept sides and back even those little triangles on my side hair line are almost gone,I have a big forhead to boot I still buzz it shows securitie and comfort with your situation whether you feel it or not. I ,it also much easier for minoxidil apps. Its more respectable trust me.young dudes with comb overs or bad push forwards look ridiculus and fear the wind and rain. you will be less controlled by mirros cause the enviroment cant mess it up.(no check ups through out the day) it will also be ten times easier to asses your situation.it works from every angle.
