Relient's story 21 - (pics)

[RP]

It seems like its almost all coming from my right temple making it look really stupid. But It is getting reallllllly thin on my right side any advice?

Same thing here. My right side is still thinner than the left. I started to use Folligen in hope of turning thin hair in there into thicker. No idea yet if it`s working or not.

Let`s hope that you wont get a finasteride shed. But if you do, I`d advice you not to panic like I did in the worst point.

I have been combing my hair exactly like that for nearly a decade and couldn`t even consider any other style since I´m so used to it. Plus it`s a good way to hide temple recession . I try to keep the frontal hair shorter than the rest of the hair on the top, so it`s necessary to cut it every now and then.

I use American Crew Fiber and hairspray.

Hmm hairsprays are carp.They have alcohol in it they damage your hair.Use a pomade or even beter just a little water.Some time even gels and other crap can damage your hair.

yeah thats why I use pomade on the rare times that i actually gel my hair.
But I was reading around and a bunch of sites all say that vitamin b12 helps stop hair loss. is this true??? and also I notice that many of you guys are taking fish oil and/or green tea extract does this stuff actually work also or is it just 3 more pills to throw down each day $$$$ ?

Fish oil and green tea are very good for your general health. Green Tea in particular is also said to have some positive effect on the hair. How much? I don´t know!

Its kinda hard to say what is the best hair style looking at pics of just the top of peoples heads. But I personaly like the flash shot where ur hair is back.

My personal opinion on hair style for my self is to cover a little and reveal a little. I dont want people looking at my hair trying to figure out whats going on.

Brushing hair forwards with a little hair putty to mess it up is a good look imo. Hair putty type stuff does not make your hair look like its wet.

lol so my conclusion is, hide a little, reveal a little and style it

jw what do you guys think i am on the Norwood scale?

 

[Relient2]

I noticed that I have been thinning a lot on the side of my head and the side burns is that normal?

Norwood 1.5.

Yah I been noticing that with my hair too. Im of the opinion that its either the nizoral or finasteride, so I am cutting back to once per week application, untill I get the weaker 1% version. I wont be cutting back on the finasteride though as it should give FAR greater benefit than nizoral.

 

[wtfhair]

can u also pull out hairs from the back of ur head? or are thinning in the back as well?

 

[Relient2]

harder to notice back there but i can still pull them out back there

Just be patient and it is likely that it will pay off, I added minoxidil as soon as it started to become noticable that I was balding as I kept hearing about/ seeing good results, you should try to put it off until you know if finasteride is or isn't working for you.

 

[Relient2]

the finasteride wont actually bring back any of the hair that im losing in the process of "waiting" to see if it is going to work though is it?

Yes, in theory it will, if you are shedding these hairs should grow back stronger.

 

[Relient2]

how do I know if its a shed or its just the male pattern baldness taking its tole ?
