Time Table....Vellus To Terminal

Guest · Jan 26, 2004

been on the big 3 about 5 months. i only use the minoxidil on the temples as the crown isn't too bad and i figure i will see if finasteride will take care of the crown within a yr. anyways, one temple has filled in nicely, pretty much perfect. suddenly i just had these brown hairs pop up. the other one is full of tons of little fine blond hairs. anyone that can relate, how long did it take for them to turn terminal and become visible? i mean i can only see the suckers under close light. my hairline on the left is perfect yet it looks shitty on the right. if those blonde hairs would turn brown and thick i would be very happy. anyone have any knowledge on this?

It seems that nobody ever has an answer to this question.
The only reason might be that they never turn terminal :-x
I have been on minoxidil and propecia for 8 months now and also had a bunch of velus hairs. They did darken a lot and grew a bit but are still way to thin.
I will let u know in a couple of months if something changes
