    Thats funny as i do the same and yes i forgot to say i squeeze about half inch of both creams and as said mix and that does my whole scalp.

    Also i know jazz does not do this but i place some hydrocortizone miconazole nitrate cream on a saucer and then some tretinoin 0.5%, and mix with my finger until fully mixed then apply to scalp quite easy really.
    As saba gel is not used with minoxidil i am leaving that out as i have ceased all hairloss when washing but am using the igrow laser as well which is making great improvements.

    Do you just put the cream on your hairline? I want to start doing this asap, but I am thinning diffusely all over the top of my head. Is it wise to put the cream all over my scalp, or should I look for a gel or liquid based formula. Please let me know, thanks!!

    Ok firstly my names jazz iv been on here for a while and great forum I decided to create a thread on my success in hairloss. I'm creating this progress thread and will be updating more pictures as I get more regrowth, there's loads more hair coming so I thought I'd make a progress thread. Not going into too much detail but il


    I apply the cream slightly around both temples, little mid scalp and little on crown. I leave it on for 30 minutes then I spray 7 sprays of Promox 10% DMI two squirts on both temples two squirts on crown and one squirt around whole scalp. I just derma roll every 3rd week, I find with derma rolling every 3rd week I keep seeing more regrowth with applying the above, these 3 have done wonders. Now that I have regrowth I cut the cream down to once a week, but I also use Promox lotion morning that contains tretinoin to counteract the cream usage.

    I never really mixed it I used them separate morning and night don't forget to derma roll once every 3rd week and appy that cream. Once you get growth cut it down to once a week the cream. If you want help counteract steroid use on skin, get some snail cream elicina and emu oil .

    Can you give me a brief summary on your regimen involving retin-a and anything else you use before you apply minoxidil. I am roughly a NW3a but thinning on top. I am slowly losing density, and ever since I started applying minox Foam since January, my hairline has thinned out noticeable. I would love to recover as much as I can and hopefully get back to a decent NW2, as youve done. Thanks in advance!

    Yes it would help absorb it much better, if your starting to thin than it looks like your genes are starting to over power Fin. I would maybe look at alternatives like RU. Kane sells RU not expensive if you dropped FIN for RU, plus the vehicle is simple you can use neogenic 3ml mixed with say 20mg RU daily. A guy on hairloss help switched as Fin was no longer effective and now he's doing better on the above. I would also cut wheat out your diet has that causes insulin increase and inflammation, we all know growth can not happen when you have internal inflammation especially around the scalp.
