    I think it was translated from korean. I understand it is not very formal but it's worth looking at.

      It is very interesting. The author has gmail so you can ask for details if you want. Please read and discuss. It's quite fascinating and completely free to incorporate.
      Utter nonsense dude. I like how he put tissue paper over the mouse next to his keyboard to illustrate a "domed head" lol. And the only before and after pic was of a guy that started with a norwood 0.

      Massaging your head may help with circulation, but I doubt trying to flatten your head to relieve the scalp of grease would be very successful.

        8 week update

        Here is my second month update, I know the pics are very shitty but still. I don't know why the light is so bad. Also, note that my hair has obviously grown since then, so now it should be around 5mm-6mm. I might have to get a haircut soon and will take more relevant pictures. I also want to point out that in the last two weeks I have noticed some shedding, I don't know what it means because I had it pretty much under control with fin and minox. Hopefully it's a good sign.

        Here is the old ones, the ones with hair really short are the initial ones, the rest are a month in.

        Here are the new ones, it may be wishful thinking but I think I gained some hair on the crown, again hard to tell.

        Crown 8 weeks:


        Top 8 weeks:


        On a side note, I am have also been adding semen for the last week, yes I know, don't judge yet. Anyways, I was using it completely wrong, it wasn't absorbing, only until recently I have found how to apply it, you have to let it sit for about 20 mins until it becomes liquid form and then I just derma roll a bit with the .5mm and it absorbs much better. You obviously don't have to do this nor I am saying you should try it, so don't talk shit about it.

          @desperate

          Im all for the semen theory, but isn't it counter intuitive?

          First you, well, you know, lose the essential stuff in it, just to try and put it back? Shouldn't you just NoFap?

            you could try dinoprostone gel. PGE2 used to induce labour. it may seem weird, but it is probably more effective than semen lmao. you may be able to source some from an extremely forward thinking dermatologist or online somewhere.

              I don't see how you would think its counter intuitive. Semen has better growth factors than Kane's, and many more properties. Just to set the record straight, I take no pleasure in putting it on my scalp. I jus think that growth factors are key to growing hair during wounding, but one, I don't have the money for growth factors and two, I have natural ones that are way more potent.
              Anyways, I do hope it works and I can assure you that if I see great results wih it then everyone is going to jump in. So I am doing people a favor by trug hhis out myself and if it works great, if it doesn't well, another one we can check off the list. Of course I will have to do it for at least six months.

                    what I'm saying is, assuming it's your own jizz that you're using, you have these nutrients and growth factors etc INSIDE you to start with... you then extract them (for lack of a better term)... only to put it on your head and probably receive less growth factors and nutrients than you had before you fapped.


                    I'm a firm believer of the fapping-baldness connection. It's def hormonal in general, but fap affects it too.

                        why is nobody using lithium gel? like in the follica patent?

                        Also, some dude on another forum posted that he used lithium gel and sandpaper and was getting cosmetic results.... I think it was posted here.

                          Have you gone mad? How in the world do you think the body is going to use semen's growth factors in my head, when they're located somewhere else. Not to mention that semen is not intended to be used like that, so there is no way your own body will use it. I guess it was a mistake saying anything about semen. You guys come here every single day and now you feel you have dignity? That this is where you draw the line, and even worse you don't know the science behind it.

                          Your assumption about fapping and hairloss is just that, an assumption. Then there Is real science behind semen and you dismiss it because just the thought makes you sick. And yes, I am using my own.

                              Without looking at the properties of semen, its very VERY disingenuous to write off its potential benefits. From what I understand, Semen contains a very high concentration of PGE2, which is one of the key prostaglandins for hair growth and, as we know that Minox -> PGE2 -> FGF-9. Therefor, you're taking a shortcut by cutting out Minoxidil. Whether it absorbs/penetrates and works is another issue.

                                Hey desperateone, don't worry about the other people. Do your thing. Like they think if semen really turns out to work they wouldn't all be rubbing it on their heads in a second.

                                I personally wouldn't rub it on my head without knowing if it works. But if it works then what could be better then something that is made by your own body and is.. free?

                                Anyways, I for one appreciate you testing it out for us.
