Probably focus my funds towards the PRP. Not sure how fast I'd actually go through with it, though... might wait out the AG.

Then again, I'm sick of being bald and watching my life pass me by, making getting the PRP soon awfully tempting.

Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions

I'm anxious to see if anyone else experiences the itchiness and whatnot.

We must not lose sight of the fact that hair cycling takes a while so one would be kidding themselves to say they're experiencing true regrowth in anything less than *several* weeks. It's apparent by viewing my photos that Jesus Christ himself wants me to be bald.... NW13 minitaurization central right here. I have some aggressive %&$! kickin' and if the AGHC could "streamline" my scalp to where there wasn't any noticable difference between my wreath and balding areas like there is now, I'd feel that I got my $200 worth.

http://www.cherin.com.ar/inicioe.htm

I bought it a while back, used it, and then for whatever reason, stopped. I resumed it probably 1.5 months ago or so... not really sure.

Apparently the estraidol or whatever it is comes in a little vial and you're supposed to break it and add it to the bigger bottle of green stuff. I wouldn't know because when they sent me the shipping email, they said they combined the two to avoid breakage during shipment. Initially I thought they may have tricked me but once I received the product, there wasn't the slightest bit of doubt that it contained an antiandrogen. What I'd like to do would be to get them to keep the vials seperate and just add the estraidol to some aloe juice or something. Because dude... that green %&$! literally smells like Fabuloso. I guess it contains nettles or something but they could have definitely done without the fragrance.

I just think with androgens in the mix, we're essentially pissing in the wind. And believe it or not, Cherin gives me no sides. My only beef with it is that it smells like Fabuloso or some %&$!... hahah. Heavily perfumed.
