Month 8 on Foam

Just made it through month 8 on foam.

Like I said in my previous posts, it started VERY strong, then after two months I started a pretty unusually (for me) big shed....

Which lasted a few months, my temples looked like hell.

As of now, My hair has entered a new renaisance in terms of quality. Still keep it shaved, although at 2mm. It looks really good at that length since I began the gym at the same time as the FOAM regiment and lost tons of weight.

The most surprising and unexpected benefit of foam so far has been the aggressive rebuilding of my hairline. It looks great! Solid, growing downwards and refilling straight across.

As of now, it feels great. I was at a New Years party and for the first time in years I wore a baseball cap simply as a fashion statement instead of a necessity. It was nice to pop it off every once in a while confidently instead of gripping it to my head in terror like I might have done three years ago.

And meeting HOT chicks who love rubbing my stubble and when they talk to me they're just looking into my eyes.

Two doses a day without fail, finasteride every night without fail, for these 8 months, has begun to really pay off.

Way I see things, I'll be great until the HM comes along or these newer, more high tech temporary solutions come out.

Whew.

Anyway, FOAM is the single greatest thing to happen for my hair. The Liquid with it's 4 hours to dry, greasy texture, less effectiveness, and dandruff flakes the size of icebergs was NOT poppin. At all. I hardly ever applied it except at night, about 4 nights a week, and forget a social life. Liquid SUCKS. At least the generic or Rogaine brand. Dr. Lee's might be ok but VERSAFOAM has a superior delivery and I'm already shaved.

Finish Line---Do you use VersaFoam along with Rogaine Foam ? I read that Versafoam helps meds have better absorption transdermally

It IS versafoam. That's why foam kicks so much ***. It delivers the med right into your scalp. Amazing.

Like I said, I think a lot of the "problems" people have been having with foam is they think the stuff is a damned mousse or styling aid! It just LOOKS like mousse but it's supposed to touch the SKIN to work.

Yeah, I only use finasteride and foam. No Nizoral.

I used Nizoral when I first started on liquid over three years ago but that's because liquid is brutal stuff. It irritates the scalp and gives you HUGE dandruff flakes.

Foam doesn't do any of that. The tradeoff is you must have short or shaved hair, imo. If you can live with that, the stuff is magic. At least for me.

How do you guys stand the smell? I smell it on myself all day or while falling asleep even after it dries. Like cheap hairspray...

actually, funniest thing. I was getting some sexy time with a lovely little thing and she said my hair smells really good and what is that?

:dunno:

You get used to it. But when they release a scent free version I'll be all over it like a fat kid on a stolen Snickers bar.

yeah, women do like shaved heads. And not that they like them more. But just that they rarely see them, so when they do, it is a treat.
