Interesting find chore boy...

I may actually get one of these... lol

I'd like to get a discussion going on why there is such a variance in the speed and degree of hair loss in individuals. If I had to categorize broadly, I would say there are basically 4 different combos when it comes to pattern hair loss: (1) Those who start to lose their hair early in life and prog...

Thanks Jacob. Things are still improving. I will post some new pics here and on my profile on my.hairlossfight.com when I'm back home from Maui.

Looking forward to hearing how you responded to the treatment astro_boy. Let me know if you want to blog on your experiences. I will help you setup your own blog here if you want. That goes for anyone else who is interested here also. Let me know and I'll get you going. Here is my own blog on the s...

Hey Hulihoop, For the record, we're glad you joined here too! Not to detract from the thread topic, but the more people like yourself here, the merrier. I welcome everyone who has joined recently, and I hope if you like it here you will continue to post here and help make this the place where everyo...

Hi Dr. AQ

I'd like to thank you for your participation and willingness to take questions from the community!

And yes, this is indeed the longest thread we've had here. Clearly you've sparked some interest!

I'm seriously considering buying one of these for a buddy of mine... He would go ape %&$! over this! lol

I actually saw one of these at the Amsterdam Cafe in Vancouver...

This is hilarious!! I wonder if the little chamber for nicotine can be used for other stuff....

Jacob, aren't you worried the rubber may cause contact dermatitis?

Are they serious? This is how they scientifically measured hair loss prevention? Normal daily shedding of your hair occurs and differs from week to week even when you dont have mpb. Correct me if I am wrong. How would you be able to measure this accurately with this method, unless your confined to ...

Interesting... but there are tons of naturals that boost GH. One that comes to mind is the amino acid, glutamine.

Anyway, are you using either of these products?

I noticed a few weeks back that performance on Regrowth was very slow. And today I was performing some searches related to hair loss on Google when I noticed that one of the search result pages was from Regrowth, and underneath the link to the page, there was a warning from Google saying This site m...

Seriously, whoever is doing this website is killing me. If you view the source it looks like they fell asleep on the keyboard and repeated a useless line like 1000 times (which is why the page takes so long to load) Dr AQ, let me do the damned thing, I'll have the pictures up in 20 minutes Hey Perg...

I just read through the thread again and realized I made a mistake. It's not IGF-1 but TFG-b1. Two totally different things. However, I still think you are covering your bases by making sure to address DHT as well if you plan on using A&G. I am not convinced that the product will halt hair loss comp...

Hi all,

I know there are some people now that are making laser helmets. If you make them, I want to know. I'm looking for someone to make me a good one.

If you know someone that does this, ask them to post here.

Things keep getting better....

Reading the A&G thread what has tweaked my interest considerably is that its stated mode of operation is different from what most treatments have focused on in the past decade or so: namely preventing/fighting/eliminating the impacts of DHT and other androgens on sensitive hair follicles and/or stim...

Hi all, I have dealt with my hair loss over the years by using multiple different products, both internals and topicals, with varying results. What I have found is that there are a lot of products that "work" insofar as helping to either prevent or slow further degradation of my existing situation, ...

Enjoy!

Hi all, I'm the owner of this site and I must say that I'm as intrigued and excited about this product as you all are. I have been quietly following the threads. Anyway, to those of you that are going to try the product, I would like to suggest that you take good pictures and track your progress. I ...

When I was using multiple topicals, I would apply them at least an hour apart, preferably two or more.

so dorothyamenda and johnsondavid, it's good to see a healthy dialog between your two personalities, considering you're the same person.

I have to say that you should get a prescription first.

There are a lot of places online where you can get it. Just google "cheap dutasteride".

I'm blogging on hair loss again here: http://my.hairlossfight.com/pg/blog/sr123 Here is my latest post: "How hair loss effected me in my 20's: http://my.hairlossfight.com/pg/blog/sr123/read/91/how-hair-loss-effected-me-in-my-20s These links are in the new social networking site for hair loss I've se...

Hmmm.... how did it help you? I'm curious what you observed.

Also, are you affiliated with the product in any way?

Should be an interesting show when it's ready to air.

Thanks for the update Jacob. I didn't notice this post till now.

Anyway, I'm always keen on hearing what you're using. Gonna do some reading and maybe check out a few of the items myself.

Cheers,
Sam

Hi Soldierboy8 and welcome, I'm not sure about the automated FUE machine, though I believe anything that automates something that requires artistic ability runs the risk of not producing a natural result. As for strip: Watching a video of it may not have been very appealing, but it is the most commo...

Hey Spartan300, Without much to go on but what you've told me, it sounds like you most likely have regular male pattern baldness. It's not uncommon to see an asymmetrical pattern of hair loss. I actually had a similar situation as you, but not as pronounced. Anyway, I would suggest the following: (1...

Hi Spartan300 and welcome! The picture is not actually being cut, it's just being placed in a window with scroll bars, so it's viewable. I can see what you're describing from your pic. It's actually fairly common for one side to thin a bit more, or sooner than the other side does. That is, assymetri...

James! Where've you been man?! Long time no hear. You doing ok?

I wish we had Walgreens here in Canada....

Hey hotdillon,

I'm taking 1.25mg finasteride once every other day, and I use the lasercomb occasionally (although given what I've learned from OverMachoGrande, the lasercomb isn't really powerful). I'm planning on making a laser helmet one of these days when I have the time.

Sam

Hey hotdillon,

As you can see, there are a lot of lurkyloo's here but few people are active currently. I appreciate the question though.

Sadly, I can't help you with this one because I didn't use it for a full 2 years.

Regards,
Sam

(P.S. good to see you back here! How have you been?)

Hey surferdude,

Looks like I missed your question.

The scar is not visible, even when I shave the hair down to number 2 buzzcut.

I'll try to take a pic and post it after my next haircut.

Sam

Hi Stan, I know the urge. I used to want to keep applying minox multiple times a day. At one point I was literally applying it 3 or more times a day. It worked, to a degree. But over time I developed sensitivity to topicals because I was using them so much. It doesn't happen to everyone, but it happ...

Thanks for posting this Jacob. Making it a sticky so people are warned about it.

Hello surferdude, and welcome to the site! This topic seems to have become somewhat controversial over the years. I decided to go with strip for several reasons: (1) Cost. FUE is typically a fair bit more expensive than strip. (2) Consistency and quality. I just felt after viewing as many pictures o...

I've used both. Check out my review of Kirkland Minoxidil: http://www.hairlossfight.com/product_reviews/kirkland_minoxidil_review.php I would use the Kirkland brand if money is an issue. The fact that Rogaine is more expensive has nothing to do with it working better, it's just that the Upjohn, the ...

Hi stan, You definitely have to give a treatment you are using more than a few months to see if it is working for you. Even a hair transplant, which takes your own hair and moves it from the back and sides of your scalp to balding areas, takes about 4 months to begin to show a cosmetically significa...

Hi stan21,

Dr. Yechiel has a number of interesting products, but as far as I am aware, none are specifically for treating hair loss. However, he does give his customers the capability to order custom products, where you choose the ingredients.

Regards,
Sam

Hi stan21, Welcome to the forums! In short, yes laser therapy has been shown to grow hair. The hairmax lasercomb was the first F.D.A.-approved laser device for hair loss. I have one, and I think it has helped me quite a bit. However, there is a growing community of people online now that are making ...
