More of a personal log, but why not share it.
Info:
27 years old
Started June 12th, 2018
1,25mg generic finasteride once a day
Added Zinc, Vitamins B1, B6 and B12 supplements at about 3 months
Sides:
None, yet
Will post new pic once a month and hopefully see some progress along the way (always buzzing it down with a 3mm guard before taking pic). Will try to keep the same lighting in future pictures.
Wish me luck!
Baseline: https://i.imgur.com/oJM9H72.jpg
Small pre-1 month-update:
My hair is a little bit longer than 3mm in this pic and also the lighting/angle is not exactly the same as baseline pic (month 1 pic will be the same). But it has almost been a month and I'm pretty shocked how much what seems to be terminal hairs have grown at the crown. Pic: https://i.imgur.com/ak7GvTd.jpg
1 month update:
Hair freshly buzzed down to 3mm again. Pic: https://i.imgur.com/bfx4CET.jpg
I also want to add that I had VEERY thick hair before i started balding like 10 years ago, I think that might help in getting some back. *knock on wood* will add pic from 2010.
2 month update:
Nothing really has changed since month 1, I might've had a shed (hard to tell when I keep it buzzed). Tried to take pics but they look exactly the same as month 1 so I'll be back in month 3 and hopefully some results
3 month update: https://imgur.com/a/BB7dlLc
Hair is a little longer than previous pictures because I'm gonna try to grow it out a few centimeters to see if I get reasonable thickness.
Hair feels thicker overall (not that visible in pictures) and temples are slowly slowly moving in from the middle it feels like. I've had a increase in vellus hairs on temples as well. In the direct light picture it's full on sun, the non-direct light one is more how it looks like IRL (or I'm delusional lol)
No sides yet, I added Zinc and Vitamins B1, B6 and B12 supplements just because.
4 month update: https://i.imgur.com/PDjGES1.jpg
Feels like hair is getting more of a even thickness, temples have slowly started to show some new hairs
7 month update: https://imgur.com/a/f63g87q https://imgur.com/a/q9I73A5
(forgot to update for a couple of months)
7 months if i counted correctly, hair doesn't feel that much different other than my crown feels a little bit better and the hairs that existed have turned a bit darker and thicker I think, still have hope for those temple hairs creeping in though.
7 month EDIT: Added another photo with similar lighting to earlier ones.
8 month update: https://i.imgur.com/XNL6Fvq.jpg
Freshly cut to 3mm again. Temple hairs are slowly getting thicker it feels like (the red mark on my head is from wearing my headset)
Late update, forgot.
1.6.2019, hair longer now but i see some results at crown at least and feels healthier overall. Pic below
