    My hair today looks the best it has in a very long time. It feels much thicker. I don't know if I am getting regrowth or not though. I do know that I have been shedding almost NO hair for quite a while now.

    Few days ago though my hair really sucked...so it might just be a cycle or some crap or different state/dryness. blah

    I do know that if I apply ******* to my hair and even if I was it out it still leaves my hair thicker.

    I am glad I am not shedding much. Will have dermmatch soon to add more density.

    I think MSM is making my hair grow faster. I am not 100% sure though. But I think it does. I want to pick up some biotin soon.

      Actually I think it is the rogaine foam that has a temporary thickening effect even if you wash it out. My hair looks good today...like really thick and really natural too. Guess I won't be depressed today.


      I read something about rogaine foam doing this. Obviously regrowth can't be so fast. But I do think even after I wash it out my hair looks way better than it did before.

      Current:

      Finasteride 1mg (April 21, 2010)(1mg/day)
      Minoxidil 2% (April 13, 2010)(I use a lot twice daily to increase the concentration)
      Ketoconazole 2% / salicylic acid 3%(April 21, 2010)(Every morning, 10-50min leave on)
      Spironolactone Lotion 5% (May 8, 2010)(once daily)
      MSM(Methylsulfonylmethane) (May 10, 2010)(2000mg-8000mg daily)
      *******-PLUS Minoxidil 15%(May 11, 2010)(Use a small amount every other day, just easing into it for a month or 2, I dont want massive sheds)


      Soon:

      Retin-A liquid 0.05%
      Derma Roller 1mm(will use together with minox 2%)
      Biotin

        OOoohhh...


        Also, I was using Dr. Lee's Regrowth shampoo every singly day. I guess that left my hair really flat...and now it's not so flat anymore...

        I am going to use it every 2nd or 3rd day from now on. First month was...uh...load phase? lol

        That 4oz bottle lasts a long time.

              I have been on finasteride for 35 days lol. Only MSM pill supplement for like 2 weeks.

              I know, way too soon to see results, obviously.

                Man...damn!


                I don't have anything in my hair today...and it looks good. Like really. Still doesn't look great but wow. Definitely something I can live with. I think my regimen is definitely working to some extend. I haven't really shed any hair for awhile now and I think it is getting thicker.

                I again didn't wash with the keto shampoo and my hair is even thicker today. That shampoo definitely took the life out of my hair. It looks good today. I love it. Some super moderate amount of dermmatch will really give me that full look. Today I am confident again... what a relief! It looks ok! My hair doesn't look like complete trash today.

                But yeah...still a lot of improvement that can be made. But what I am saying is I think I can wear my hair long again soon. I won't cut my hair for at least a year, will see what happens!

                Finally a day that I can feel good again.

                  For what it's worth, I'd like to mention that I do not use shampoo everyday. That's a little overkill to me. Unless you sweep the floor with your head, you should try using shampoo 1-2 times a week and see. In my case my hair feels smoother and is better looking. It usually looks the worst right after I use shampoo so I use it AT MOST once a week.

                    Really? Nah, I actually prefer shampooing.

                    Some shampoos like the one i use remove ALL sebum and stuff so It can leave hair really flat and so on. But i really like how it makes my scalp feel man. I will only use that 2-3 times a week and a normal shampoo more.

                    thing is, my hair looks crap with rogaine in it, only good when its washed OUT or so. Same goes for other topicals. So I have to wash it.

                    But yeah. Don't read my posts wrong though. My hair looks better, but still kinda crap. Just better lately. I am not really shedding hair at ALL. So I am curious what the next couple of months will bring.
