Vellus Hair On the hairline

Guest · Jun 11, 2004

Been on Proscar a little over 2 months and i havent experienced a shed yet but i have some vellus hair growing on my hairline where it use to be normal a long time ago.i was wondering if this is a good sign or not?,can these roots produce healthy hair someday or is this as far as its gonna go?

Since it's too early for Propecia to be sprouting things on my hairline just yet, it's not the Propecia, but I have a bunch of these myself, that lead right up to about a NW1 hairline, they taper off into tiny tiny hairs, and then disappear. I was also wondering the same thing, whether or not Propecia will eventually make these into a proper hairline. Sorry that this isn't so much a response, as a continuation

If your a great responder to Propecia, then I'd say you have a great chance of restoring the temples. I'm not as optimistic about it so I added minoxidil to the front temples to try it out, and I also see alot of vellous hairs where my old hairline used to be, hopefully they thicken..
