Is everyone here retarded?

Several general ways to cure hair loss, most won't help with receding hairlines above your temps though:
- Minoxidil (Regain) - increases blood flow (probably), apply twice a day on your head as lotion or foam, risk of increased body hair
- Finasterid (Propecia) - stops your test becoming DHT, thus saving your overly sensitive follicles - take it orally, low risk of random shit like erectile problems

There are various derivatives of both substance classes, you can look them up.

Then there is hair transplant, where you can even use general body hair. Some biotine, selenium and zink won't hurt either.

former hairdresser for toni'n'guy, when balding men or women who's hair is thinning out ask me for advice id tell them to do not waste their money on those things. i understand fully that hair to a man is like a lions mane but that shit is cosmetic.

also there are many reason why someones hair might be thinning, but its mostly a culmination of things like genetics, diet, enviromental reasons, fashion choices. so when you see an ad for some sort of miracle treatment its mostly bulshit.

read the frint print too lads.

>> No.9170627

>>9170606
oh forgot to add also those success rates they spruik in fine print is bulshit because success to them is when their treatments grow back some hair, which some products do but let me say that the hair that usually comes back isnt like the hair you will be expecting.

1. because everyones hair/scalp grows differently as i mentioned above with factors as to why someone might be losing hair.
2. people who lose hair, means the follicles on the regions of balding work differently to those elsewhere, notice how a lot of men bald on top and the sides still grow hair? IF by any chance you use a product that is capable of sprouting any hair i can guarantee that it is almost always sparse, thin, baby hair, not thick like the hair on the sides usually are.

Needle size and frequency are the most important factors. If the needles are too small you don't stimulate a healing reaction or collagen growth. Too big needles and you just gash your scalp up and do tons of damage and bleed everywhere. My skull has a few lump spots so sometimes I'll see what looks like tiny droplets of blood, but I wouldn't say it's bleeding.
Doing it too often is bad too. Your skin needs to heal between treatments or else there's no point.
There's a balance that needs to be achieved.
Here's a guide that helped me build a schedual. Ideally you want to use the smallest needle that'll produce hair growth, as often as your skin can heal to 100%.
http://dermarollerinfo.com/micro-needling-derma-roller-for-hair-loss/

Every 4 -7 days I use 0.5mm roller.
Spray roller with rubbing alcohol to sterilize and let it dry.
Roll it 10 times in one direction, roll it 10 times in the perpendicular direction.
Spray with more alcohol to disinfect and put it away.
https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Care-Micro-Needles-0-5mm/dp/B074598LV3/

They say a 0.25mm needle is too small to stimulate hair growth, but helps asorbing topical treatments and can be safely used every day. I'm thinking about getting one to use in conjunction with Rogaine, to help absorption.

>>9173400
On the contrary, the larger needles are used to reduce scar tissue. But as mentioned above, larger needles produce blood and require more rest.

The whole process works the exact same way as the vampire facelift. In fact micro needling is a main part of that procedure, but they add a growth factor rich solution that's extracted from your own blood. I believe this solution is unnecessary or vastly overrated at the very least. If you ask me the "blood derived serum" is just a marketing gimmick to rip money off of rich people.

no pics, but what I've noticed is after about 5 weeks of using it all the vellus hairs along the hairline, (extending 0.5cm) have gotten longer and are starting to get thicker. These vellus hairs will eventually turn into normal hair. This is the normal process of restoring hair growth.
If you're bald, and you still have tiny velllus hairs in your bald spot, then there's hope. If the vellus isn't there, then only hope is a transplant.

I think researchers look down on it as something unworthy of researching but baldness destroys the lives and self-esteem of millions of men and women (yes, women).

And whoever finds its cure, an actual remedy, well he will be a trillionaire from night to day.
