My plan is to keep using the rogaine until my hair gets thick enough I am happy with, then looking into natural oils or remedies. So I might ask questions about natural solutions at some point.

Hi Teece, I roll once a week with 1.5mm roller. I use rogaine foam in morning and at night each day. I haven’t noticed any side effects using rogaine after rolling. Do you think rolling helping you at all? Makes my scalp very dry. Does coffee enema help with hair? I have never heard of that before.

How much bleeding do you see using 1.5mm? I have been using .5mm with a bit more force than the weight of my hand. I was bleeding a bit on all areas of my scalp. I use Hairmetto products with my rolling, and i will say my scalp is never dry.

I roll hard enough my scalp is red and some minor bleeding. I think the majority of dryness is from rogaine, I use conditioner and coconut oil but scalp still very dry.

Hi Mattinky,
Thanks for checking in! I would say so far so good. No new regrowth yet, but I am only almost 4 weeks in with 3 treatments completed. My first week i did .3mm twice with hairmetto oils, then the two following weeks with .5mm once a week still with hairmetto. I noticed a fair amount of bleeding this last time, so I dont see the need to go much deeper right now. I can say my hair is feeling healthier and stronger. Less falling out when i rub the oils or shampoo into my scalp. So thats positive. I always wait 24 hours before using the oils to avoid too much absorption. The oils have vitamins in them, and i dont want too much in my system at once. I actually noticed some symptoms of vitamin over use, so i will do every other day with the oils now. To go over my whole scalp, i guess i am using a fair amount of oil, so i need to be careful with that. I am being patient, as i know normally it can take up to 8 weeks before seeing results. I have seen so many other methods fail that I am trying to stay positive as well. I know its a process, and i am actually yet to see one person not get results, so i dont see why it would start with me.

Thanks for update.
It is a slow process. I’m taking a more aggressive approach with 1.5mm once a week and Rogaine each day. I can tell a difference and will continue to do. I did post a before and after about a month ago. In a few weeks I will update again. Doesn’t seem to be much interest in this post anymore, I hope everyone didn’t have bad results and give up. This is my last hope to regrow hair. 🤞

I am noticing some dead skin on my used roller...i clean it before and after using with a hot water rinse, than 15 mins in 70% rubbing alcohol. If there is some dead skin, should i worry about infection even when i just soaked it? I cant use my new roller....the condition it came in is ridiculous....looks used, doesnt even roll bc the head isnt straight, and i dont wanna miss my treatment today.
What brand roller do you use?
Thanks for the info!

Dry skin
My scalp is very dry and almost every time I roll the roller collects dry scalp or dandruff like substance. My roller is looking pretty rough after 2 months use so I will be ordering a new one from amazon soon. I use hot water to rinse and alcohol after each use to sterilize. Good luck and keep us posted.
