    But CB is probably the main one I've been waiting for - it eliminates DHT at the follicle and doesnt mess with serum DHT.

    Just need to know how to mix it all now, I think there was a guide on Hairlosshelp I saw a few weeks back, will post if I find it.

    Hell, do you have any idea of how Kane manages to get hold of these chemicals?
    Cosmos' trials were successful even at 1%, if using 1ml it would last you 100 days (10mg per application).

      This is true, but it was 1% with iontophoresis So 1% with a topical vehicle may not be delivering the same amount of CB. Although, since tehre wasn't a huge difference between 1% and 5% with ionto, for all we know 0.5% could have worked just as well too, and 1% in a topical will be fine.

        Also my 2% mpb Ru is on its way + neogenic, hopefully these 3 work for my hair w/o sides

          Would 1 ml be enough for full coverage of the scalp though? I do 1.25 ml of ru and that covers my hairline and the center of my crown

            Don't bother with Neogenic; entirely useless product.

              If you apply properly 1ml can cover entire NW7 area.

                10mg mixed with 1ml kb solution for each application?

                is that what you do Hellouser?

                  I think I will do the same, drop RU and buy 2 grams of CB which should last me 5 - 6 months.

                  Hopefully this way I can avoid taking finasteride.

                  Hellouser, do you think the KB solution would work just as well as the everclear/PG vehicle for CB?

                      No, I've never used KB and don't plan on it either. I use only ethanol/PG. I'm waiting to receive Oleyl but its been a while.

                          No to either. You'll need ethanol, dmi/dmso or oleyl. PG only slows down the drying time of the alcohols, it does not pass through skin. Vodka won't pass through skin either and the strongest type of vodka is probably a Polish rectified spirit, around 95/96% alcohol. It is a grain alcohol like Everclear and might work, but dont take my word for it, i'm only guessing. IF you cant find everclear I doubt you'll be able to find a polish rectified spirit.

                            I guess im just going to have to order KB then? where did you get your everclear from,
                            what is oleyl and where is that available?

                                Just asked on another hair loss forum if a rectified spirit will work instead of Everclear and the answer is 'yes, definitely'

                                Seeing how its slightly stronger than everclear at 96% (192 Proof) it could work a bit better.
