sorearms, my man, check this out.
baldness is in my family, dad was bald by 31, my older brothers are going bald. ive been losing my hair for ten years, here lately a lot more shedding.
i came to the conclusion i was going for transplants, mind you i still had a lot of hair but losing it, receding and on top. i was kind of bummed cause im not going to let it happen even if i had to get transplants.
heres what i put together to combat it. and im not gonna post scientific research, studies or whatever to back any of this up. ill leave that to the guru's.
first thing i did was purchase some finasteride 5mg from here,
http://www.inhousepharmacy.com/generics/fincar.html
it will get to your door in approx 7 days.
the next step is to go to the pharmacy and buy a pill splitter. you will cut the 5mg pills either into 1/4 or 1/6. i did 1/6 for awhile and then got tired and now do 1/4.
1/4 = 1.25mg per dose
1/6 = approx .88mg per dose
go with the 1/6 for awhile, it should be fine.
you get 30 pills for about 32$.
30X6=180 doses. 180 days for 32$
next find some generic rogain online. its all over the net. the 5%. or if you want to pay a little more and pay for dr. lee's script get the 12 or 15%. they say it works better on the frontal area than the 5%.
next buy some 2% nizerol from here,
http://www.granvillewellness.com/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=1592
im not gonna argue which is better 1% or 2%, bottom line is the 1% at the pharmacy is the same price as the 2% online. might as well go with the 2%.
next buy you some nioxin package, shampoo and spray in conditioner. its about 20$ at the store. you can buy it online im not sure if its cheaper.
now this is my regimine that definitely worked for me.
i take one dose of finasteride daily. morning or night. without fail. like i said split it into 1/6.
i take a shower before work. i wash my hair with my regular shampoo to get it clean. because you dont want to use the expensive nizerol to clean, just to medicate. after i wash my hair i apply the nizerol to my scalp, not the hair. it takes a lot less to do this if you wash with shampoo first. i gently message my scalp to lather it up. and i just apply to the top of my head, not the sides and back. although some will get there.
then i proceed to wash my body and frank and beans. after several minutes or longer depending on if im in a hurry i rinse it out. then apply some conditioner about twice a week.
i wash with nizerol daily.
next i blow dry my hair. then i apply my generic rogain(minoxidol, or whatever). it says 1mil, i usually do a slight bit less because i will use it again at the end of the day. i rub the dropper over the top of my head to the areas i need it. it runs down sometimes but you will get better at applying it with practice. then i lightly dry it with the blower.
then before bedtime i apply the minoxidol again, so thats twice a day.
that spray in conditioner, the nioxin spray, i use that whenever to condition my hair. real easy to use and anytime. just spray and comb thru and dry.
the nioxin shampoo. once maybe twice a week i will substitute that for the nizerol treatment. it seems to condition more. but i put my money on nizerol for real treatment.
finasteride 1 dose a day.
nizerol every day after shampooing.
minoxidol twice a day.
nioxin shampoo once maybe twice a week
nioxin spray in conditioner whenever, its a nice touch and makes your hair feel thicker and softer.
your hair will go thru changes for about two months. its almost like this treatment kills off some of it. but it starts a new growth cycle.
someone mentioned something about nizerol changing the texture of thier hair, true but thats why you use the nioxin shampoo once a week plus a regular conditioner at least eod. and also use the nioxin spray in conditioner. and if your going out on the town, i dont use the nizerol that night and ill use a good conditioner and my hair looks and feels fantastic, no shit.
i not only stopped my hair loss i reversed it. no shit, it worked. im extremely happy with the results. took about three solid months of treatment but now it seems to be regrowing real well. i have more hair than i did two years ago. its even coming back in my temple area which is said to be the hardest to regrow.
if you add this treatment up its not that expensive for the year. hopefully this will cease all hair loss till they come up with something really good.
i think omega mentioned adovart or something like that. its suppossed to be better than finasteride(propecia) but its a lot more expensive, since they dont have a generic brand yet. they will though after a few years. if you can afford that it might be the way to go. its said to be better and work better on the temple area. i might give it a try. its on the same website as the one i linked above for the finasteride.
good luck and dont give up. have patience, i almost gave up even after using this treatment but here recently im damn glad i didnt. my wife has been making a lot of comments about it. its definitely noticable.
nothing is as important as my hair thats why i use this treatment religiously.
and ive recently started a small dose cycle consisting of prop, sus, and eq. my hair has only gotton better.
