A woman with alopecia universalis shares her positive experience of being bald, finding it freeing and less worrisome. She also discusses her skincare routine using Korean products.
Minoxidil, dutasteride, and finasteride treatments have significantly increased eyelash length, with some users experiencing eyelashes over twice the average length. Many users report increased hair growth in unintended areas, such as knuckles and body hair, while still struggling with hair loss on the scalp.
Oral minoxidil has greatly improved eyelash growth, prompting compliments and questions about mascara use. The user has been taking 2.5mg of oral minoxidil for three months and is also using finasteride.
Applying minoxidil to eyelashes is unsafe due to potential eye irritation and chemical burns. Safer alternatives include peptide serums, castor oil, or lash lifts/extensions.
A woman using minoxidil for hair loss is trying hair fibers but finds they look like dandruff. Suggestions include using pomade, Derm Match, matte eye shadow, mascara, and spray applicators for a more natural look.
