They observed fine hairs returning and a change in scalp texture after adding cinnamon oil, questioning if this indicates positive hair regrowth.
community 6 months of treatment, best decision of my life.
Significant hair regrowth and increased confidence after using 1 mg finasteride for 6 months and 5 mg oral minoxidil for 3 months. No major side effects, except unwanted hair growth near temples and eyebrows.
community I believe the key for most NW2 to NW3 with no alopecia but more of receding hairline is caused by lack of blood flow and collagen in front of scalp. How do you rebuild collagen? What supplements to add when dermarolling?
Minoxidil helped with hairline regrowth, but stopping it led to hair loss, suggesting circulation issues. Dermarolling, collagen peptides, and oils like castor and rosemary are recommended for improving hair health.
community Why don’t more people use hair fibers?
Hair fibers can effectively cover thinning hair when used with minoxidil and hairspray but require daily application and can be inconvenient in certain conditions. Some users prefer treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, microneedling, or wigs due to the maintenance and limitations of hair fibers.
community Anyone here found a shampoo that actually helps with hair thinning?
Cosmetics Hut Hair Strengthening Shampoo with Biotin Peppermint Platyclaudus is popular for reducing hair shedding. Other treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, ketoconazole shampoo, and biotin supplements.
