The recommended dose of finasteride is 1mg daily. If you're worried about side effects, you can take it once every other day, which is about as 70% - 80% effective as the daily dose.

And it gets a bit better each month.

8) Green Tea: You drink it, dummy! Green tea is full of powerful antioxidants. It's considered one of the healthiest drinks in the world. Surely it must do something for your hair. I cold brew mine and drink 4 - 5 cups a day.

Roughly speaking, you'll probably be only able to regain what you've lost in the last 5 years. So starting at the first sign of balding is probably the best thing you can do.

Both fin + minox will make you shed hair when first starting out. This means your hair will get worse before it gets better. People who don't know this often freak out when their hair gets worse, stop using them, and then tell other people they don't work. You have to stick with it for at least 6 months to a year before you can draw any conclusions. You should always take pictures before starting and at the end of every month and base your judgement based on the pictures and not what you see in the mirror every morning.

I think that's about it.

The important thing to remember is, fin and minox will make you shed when you first start using it. You have to make it through the shedding phase before you can see things getting better. This is why a lot of people start these products and then quit them thinking they don't work.

For me, the results have been fantastic and I feel it has been totally worth spending 15 or so minutes every morning on my routine. Each month it fills it fills in a bit more and the new hairs get a bit longer.

I grew my hair out long before starting with any of the stuff I mentioned. I was thoroughly enjoying having long hair, but I had to keep it styled in such a way that it hid my hairline. I was always paranoid on windy days that people could see my bald temples whenever the wind blew my hair up. Now I can pull my hair back in a bun and it looks pretty decent.

No matter how I style my hair these days, I get tons of compliments, mostly from women, but even from bald/balding dudes tell me they wish they had my hair. Since I'm short (5'6") I tell them I would trade my hair for their height (no I wouldn't! =)).

And if you think that shits crazy, take a look at this!

The left picture is what my hair looked like last last August when I tried pulling it back. It exposed so much of my scalp, it looked horrible. However, look at the one on the right taken today. I can now pull my hair back in a bun and it doesn't look half bad.

I was considering getting a transplant, but because I'm seeing improvements each month, I don't think I'll even bother.
