    Default Should I just save it off? (pcs)

    Some friends are suggesting it. Just can't come to grip on doing it...

    Are you on any treatments? Are they not working?

    Thanks for the response. I was on fin from last November. I stopped cold turkey sometime during summer, mainly because of the side effects. I could not concentrate for the life of me, even while being on adderall. The brain fog was soooo bad, it was just unbearable.

    I finished my 2nd year of grad school this past August, so I got back on fin 3 weeks ago. I saw good changes in my hair when I started. If you look at my albums, you can see the crown and the overall scalp thickened up quite a bit. I just hate having lost the genetics lottery. I feel I'm literally the only brown kid that's losing his hair - it sucks.

    Also using minox twice/daily and using Nizoral 1% shampoo. Trying to cut back on shampooing my hair too much. Used to do it everyday. Now trying to do it twice a week and let my natural hair oils help lubricate the scalp instead of drying it out.

    You have your vertex and crown of hair left you don't have an NW4 or even 5 where it is all see through and there is no hairline anymore and it is just bald slick scalp. You have more than enough coverage to go without shaving it off. You are more at NW2 which a shade away from the beginning of where it starts. I wish I had coverage like that.

    by the way if you didnt have sexual sides on Fin , get on RU asap,

    unfortunately RU caused me fked up weight gain and libido loss, but if u didnt have that on fin, u wont on ru

    I just checked out your pics again. Stay on the treatments and see how much you can regrow. You have too much hair to throw in the towel now.
