Re: ***Lasers***

Awaiting regrowth, I feel your pain too. let me first say that, i have been using 200 lasers 20 min 3 times a week religiously after shampoo and i have lost 30 percent of my hair in the past 4 months. I have hope however because it does help my itch and i do feel soreness. I might just cut down trea...

Re: The laser shed

Hey guys,

Just want to give you my 3 month update on things.

1st: Hair is reallly really %&$! and thin. Shedding is alot, but i have been super stressed out about my tests this summer and of course girls.
2nd. Vellus hairs are still there and i think they are getting darker/ longer
3rd: some of my psoriasis is still there but the itching has def dampered down, but this could have been because of the steriods too.

Overall: the helmet has given me hope, and im really hoping to see a stop in shed by month 6, and these vellus hairs growing into long terminal ones. Will be using mag oil soon!

Re: Glueing diodes

This worked out perfect for me:

Use Elmers glue!!! If the diode is dead you simply "pluck" the diode out of the foam and the foam is till intact. The diodes stay very well put and all is good!

when your hair falls out...

You feel like %&$!...

lol but really when it does what does it look like?

for me i get a mix of thick and thin hairs BUT a lot of them if not all have a HUGE bulbous fleshy thing that i believe is sebum dried with some scales.

Anyone else get this crap? I also get it every morning i wake up, it could be SD though.

I will find a cure when im a doctor! first gotta get through these USMLES!

Re: The laser shed

Im at almost 2 months and im shedding quite rapidly. It is def shedding more than when i was not on lasers. But this could be a good sign. My hair is very limp and thinning BUt thin and thick hairs are falling out, which leads me to beleive that new hairs may be taking thier place. I do have a lot o...

Laser brushes

I am making Laser brushes with the same diodes used in helmets. If anyone is interested let me know. I reccomend using a helmet, but for someone who wants a brush and doesnt feel like making one, i will be willing to sell you one.
