Hair loss has turned me into a monster and my life became such a nightmare that I have been considering spending the last of my savings on a trip to Tijuana and killing myself with horse anesthetic. But I have decided to try derma rolling + liquid minoxidil, and keep my options open for a transplant a year or so down the road.
I'm currently NW3 with monstrous diffuse thinning. Even the quality of the hair I have left is stringy and straw-like, indicating some kind of nutritional deficiency on top of the male pattern baldness. I took finasteride for a year with no results, back in 2015. The loss progressed at the same slow pace before, during, and after the finasteride.
I'm new to this regiment and I'm just hoping to get some basic advice, for example what size dermaroller, and where to get one? I was leaning toward 1.5mm. The main thing that's confused me during my research is the contradictory information of whether the minoxidil should be applied immediately or should one wait 12 hours.
Thanks.
