    Default Almost 4 months on the Big 3 and it seems to be working well

    Hi,

    My first post so I hope I'm making sense.

    I'm sharing this to encourage the older guys out there. I'm in my late 40's and have been losing hair since college. As you can see in the first picture, almost all my hair was gone. I think there are discussions on whether older guys can still recover some hair.

    Back in August, I started to take 1mg generic Finasteride every day, generic Minoxidil twice per day, and 1% Nizoral EOD.

    I had no sides whatsoever. Also, I had no sheds. It was as if I was taking sugar pills and the only effect was hair growth, nothing else.

    Hair loss stopped pretty much right away. Regrowth started about 2 months into the journey. I regrew hair everywhere, top, hairline, temples.

    I'm attaching 2 pictures. First one is from August, 2nd one from now. Both pictures are in my bathroom with 3 bright light bulbs shining from the top. I'm not a photographer so I won't argue with anybody about the quality of the pictures. I actually will not argue with anybody so don't even try to pick a fight. And yes, both pictures are the same person, me. I'm also aware that my hair is 4 months longer since August. But it's obvious that there's more hair now.

    Will take more pictures when I have time.

    Again, I hope this post will give hope to some older hair loss sufferers out there.

    Take care.

    Default Some more pictures

    Here are some more pictures showing the progression from October to December.

    In the second December picture, you can see all the shorter new hair at the hairline and temple. Those short hairs seem to be all over the scalp below the longer hair.

    My hair seems to be more healthy. It's darker now, going towards the dark blue-black color it was when I was a teenager.
