I am freaking out!! Shedding?????

[ajrunke]

So, I posted back in mid November about what I hoped was new hair growth that looked similar to peach fuzz. It's two months since that post and they still appear to be very fine, almost peach fuzz like hair strands.

If this were to be new hair growth, would they have matured by now???
Should I just assume Minox isn't working for me? I've been using it 4.5 months now and never missed a dosage. I would have thought those fine peach fuzz like hairs would have shown some kind of thickening / darkening by now.

Any input would be appreciated.

It can take 9 months for minoxidil to start taking true effect. But for some peach fuzz is as far as it goes. Only way to know is to reassess at the 9 month mark.
