Me too... my theory is he either regrew all his hair, or became apathetic and shaved bald. DESMOND!! WE NEED YOU!! CAN YOU HEARRRRR US!!!! Maybe that will work.

[UNBEAT]

I think too that he found a way te get his hair back and dont give a f**k anymore, or he found out that there is no cure in his lifetime and quit...in a tropical island

[eighteen]

He found out the cure and is keeping it a secret so he can invest in it and get rich.

He's in an island trapped with Jack, Sawyer, Katie, Hugo, Sayid, Locke, Jin, Sun, Claire, Charlie, etc.

HAHAHA.... legit response.. he's pushing a button every hour to ensure that catastrophic hair loss doesn't plague us all. We should be grateful.

[Not giving up]

Haha lost references are appreciated.

In truth the poor guy gets a thread about where he is every few months.

From what I've seen him say before, the truth is he tries to avoid the forums and just get on with his life. He only really becomes active on them when he has something to new contribute these days.

like some sort of mystical oracle we'll only hear from him again when the time is right.

As knowledgeable as he is, if he doesn't have official/insider knowledge one of the procedures/products showing recent promise then he has nothing significant to contribute.

Whatever noob. You have no idea.

I'm waiting for your life changing and hope full posts.

1) I am no noob, I've been here years, and
2) Official news is the only thing that matters at this point, speculation and blind optimism/pessimism is worthless and often wrong. One clinical trial result, scientific paper or company press release is better than a thousand Desmond posts, unless he's posting one of those things himself. Given his absence I imagine he feels the same way.

His relationship with Penny is in danger because he wants to prove to Big Pharma that he can grow his hair long without their help and he's worthy of Penny, with his long locks.

At least living the life of Desmond on Lost is less complicated and depressing than losing all your hair.

I hope he shows up with some of his latest news. He is certainly one of the best here in recovering information...

Yes, time traveling and telling the future is not as bad as MPB.

Hahahaha uh man. I have so much love for this thread like you wouldn't believe Lost is still the greatest show in my books.

I'm still around guys and check these threads regularly. Tbh, now that I'm a bit older and have seen how this industry operates I've kinda lowered my expectations a bit.

• Histogen is still making empty promises.
• Replicel still hasn't released their Phase I results that lasted 12 months! It was completed years ago. Those results would have confirmed the DHT immunity theory but they've chosen to keep it a secret!
  
• Aderans is gone.
  
• Samumed is going to face a mountain of hurdles imposed by FDA due to the Mechanism of action of their product. FDA will definitely wanna see a much longer trial to rule out carcinogenicity risks.
  
• Follicept failed to regrow lost hair.
  
• Follica is a ghost thinking it's still alive!
  
• Follicum ended up being similar to Minoxidil.
  
• Bimatoprost was unable to beat Minoxidil even at high doses.
  
• Tsuji labs is still saying 10 years like they did 4 years ago
  
• Lauster team still hasn't managed to create a fully functional hair follicle even with their microchip technology.
  
• JAK inhibitors are most probably just a hype. I can't see how suppressing your immune system would induce the 'First dermal signal' instructing epidermal cells to form a placode and ultimately a hair follicle. MPB patophysiology is completely different to Alopecia areata (autoimmune disorder).
  
• CB-03-01 is still 3-5 years away, and that's if the new company deems it profitable enough to release! I found out recently Cosmo pharmaceutical no longer exists

The truth of the matter: cure is still years away. If you don't halt your hair loss with Fin or Dut then you will lose your hair. Sad times indeed.

That's my thoughts for tonight. 112 minutes is up and I've gotta run back to the hatch.

See you in another life brothers hopefully with a head full of hair
