So here are my photos in order from oldest to newest:

Did propecia a few years, revivogen (one year, including topical,shampoo and conditioner) then stopped treatments and just got shorter haircuts for a while. Later, I became motivated to get some decent hair with texture and no limpness so I restarted the merk pill every day and occasionally revivogen.

That lasted another year.

Now I'm in maintenance mode taking 1mg. finasteride every other day after purchasing two pro-packs of 90 tablets each. This works out to a six month supply which is then stretched out to a year.

I eventually switched from revivogen to neutrogena t-gel (tar based) and a dimethicone protectant with vitamin A.

Most days, I prefer not to do anything for hairloss and use regular finesse, suave and clairol products. Then I rotate days on propecia, do the protectant sometimes nights and t-gel once per weekend.
