I've been using this for 2 months and my hair feels improved. Forelock and crown is looking stronger, less shedding and itching, existing hair looks healthier. Can get away with much less concealer now. Can't say whether there is any new hair growth but I'll continue to monitor things. I've been using this in conjunction with Hair Essentials vitamins btw.
Overall, I don't expect miracles but I'd be very happy with anything that can help maintain or has any sort of positive effect.

I think it remains that whether or not toco-8 is favourable for hair growth, it has an appreciable positive effect on one's health, and is moreso beneficial for those members who are into lifting /follow regular exercise routines.

Update
I've been on this too for about 2 months.
Yes my hair seems to be in good shape, shedding has slowed down and itching as well.
I'm interested to see where this will lead. I'll keep you guys posted.
Also, I'm on Black tea + Resveratrol everyday too :)
PS: Chest hair and libido has increased. That, I am SURE lol.

Toco 8 has beta sitosterol in it , I wonder if this has something to do with it?

Found 26 hairs on my pillow upon waking, first time in a while.
After running my hands in my hair, not hair is on them.
Guess it happens.

You hear about people weight lifting who take 5AR inhibiters to prevent balding, but they also take aromatase inhibiters in order to lessen the effects of rising estradiol. So if you're taking finasteride and lifting heavy you may need to consider an A.I. as well.
Hey I was just looking back into the thread, what exactly are 5AR inhibiters? I lift weights 4 days a week and since ive upped the weight and gained more muscle last year is when i noticed my hair start thinning in spots.
Do you recommend taking 5AR inhibiters, plus fin, and AI's aswell? Im yet to be on anything as of now..

Fin IS a 5AR inhibitor. As far as AIs go, they will definitely help with lifting, but keep in mind, you might not exactly be able to get them legally.
