temporary fix?

[john76]

Hey everyone,

I am planning to go see a dermatologist soon and look into starting Propecia. My understanding is that it will be anywhere from 6-12 months before I know to what extent or even if Propecia will work for me. I seem to have slowed my loss a little with NIOXIN shampoo, but I would like to boost my self esteem and cover up my thinning areas while I wait for the verdict on Propecia.

Has anyone on here used something topical like Toppix and been happy with it? It seems to me that Toppix is some kind of "hair powder", and I am not sure how that would even work? I saw on the web somewhere some fairly dramatic "before and after" photos of what was described as "micro-keratin (hair) fibers" that seemed to come in a liquid or gel form. I can't for the life of me remember the name of that stuff. Does that sound familiar to anyone?

Any suggestions that will not be a waste of $$$.

Thanks,
John
