And finally real results. I just rinsed with water for those. For after are I used a hair mask and am still using that same packet as I dont have long hair. It’s better to put it on dry hair and then wait more than just the 5 minutes and then shower. Also dye dry and without using anything day before. You might have a funny chemical smell after.

This is looking hopeful, then hope is getting crushed and having to start again.
What was giving me hope was the sunglasses I wear driving. Usually they might be about 1/8 inch above my right ear , oddly when aligning it was about one full inch of asymmetry. My hair also looked like it had two big tufts like a reverse mohawk. Sometimes my hair seems to change with mood and some people give me a double take.
So my head isn’t stuck in some old television set an unable to change the channel somebody else wants to see themselves in.
I also have more minoxidil supplies. I found this old spray can at least 3/4 full or more nobody wants to use. Also got some stuff niece left behind and stuff I haven’t broken out with in a while.
This aerosol says for women but both are active ingredient 5% minoxidil. The inactive ingredients are different though yet I’m sure thrown in for some reason. The spray can gives warnings not to use unless you know the reason for your hair loss or if it was recent as well as not for infants or children
I haven’t been using this more than once a week and usually about 2 weeks apart. Just the pump not the can.
Here is the problem though. Take a look at my hair. I tried to brush this in a spiral that follows the hair whorl, crown, trochoglyph, swirl. See Wikipedia article.
Also note the child’s head appearance. Look at my hair picture and tell me if you would say child or petite woman. Here is another pic I styled with the orange shirt so you know I’m not being deceitful.
I’m going to read this article here before I do my next step whatever it will be. The color seems to naturally brought out this tint all over my hair and even my body hair. Also no visible white even at roots on top of head just slight on the sides and the sides have been weird from frizzy to wavy and totally straight.
My skin looks good here and my looks are a bit more pleasant but believe me when I tell you they look absolutely slovenly and unattractive other days. It hard to beat , but I do it often. As often as people see that smile and go the extra effort to take it off my face.
Oddly people often look like they want to pet the back of my head like a baby human or chimpanzee.
Maybe this topic should be changed to if it’s selling it’s minoxidil. I’m sure Will got so tired of it he donned that ridiculous wig that looked like his wife’s hair as if answering the question where’d all your go?
But I finally saw the difference between a men and womens rogaine its the minoxidil content of 5%men 2%women.
Also the application for men at 5% twice daily as with women at the 2%. However, side effects like extra facial and body hair were a concern and in that case once a day would be fine.
Maybe i got a bad batch the first time but I was using a ton of that stuff cooked under a cap daily just to grow what looks like thin women’s hair. It just wouldnt get past the max point so I would cut it and start over.
I’m going to try once every 3 days for while concentrated on different areas when my hair is longer and all maybe all over if I cut it short again to even growth.
Anyone with personal experience or close to personal experience have advice? Also any sharing does wonders. But no meltdown and ignore pull back or that;s what your get tenfold.
You made this post in the head covering topic a few years back.
I ended up cutting my hair yesterday right after my fasted blood draw. It just died overnight it seemed and I was looking just way too different from my more attractive self. The sunshine in one day turned several hairs copper and I used an anti frizz conditioner that actually caused frizziness.
It was different and progress made but time to give it up and start over again. No pics for a while and I do have some interesting stuff I could share like my third eye in the back of my head lol.
But this is what’s next, explanation later.
Those black handled tools are a derma stamp and derma roller. Yes, that does read titanium. They are very small micro needles that supposedly open up hair follicles and pores and can also be used on face. Not recommended but I sterilize with alcohol. Not very painful but you can feel them with pressure or especially if you pull sideways slightly, but don’t bend the needles. I’m using this daily while my hair is short and all over minoxidil in both the spray and mousse foam. The foam I can really feel cooking hot and that is especially with that other stuff.
That hyrdating oil for hair, scalp, and face works excellent for all three. At first my hair just felt dead like some dry seaweed dead with oil sheen so I stopped. But when the scalp got oiled properly the hair came back very soft and bodied. I also figured out easily to cope with the minoxidil age looking effect which doesn’t seem to occur anymore.
I will do this maybe for a week longer and then at spaced intervals or at next hair trim. The roller is much easier to cover the scalp area with vs. the stamp. Redness goes away quickly. I stamp or roll and then minoxidil. After absorbing either that oil or that gel which is actually something for babies. It’s chamomile and smells like a baby product yet very heady it also burns hot and with the minoxidil it makes me a real hot head. I don’t mean temper I mean temperature as it feels like my head is on fire. That gets respect and nothing is funny around me.
There is strong and there is baby strong. You have seen my hair, it’s a strategy using a women’s product and baby’s product.
What my hair looked like before I cut it. Yes I’m letting go of this look temporarily to get it back it better in the future. Don’t add to my hair decline or hinder it’s progress and upgrade.
If you borrow realize it costs me and sometimes hurts badly mostly in the looks but often times real pain.
Help me with this burden. I can’t keep being a backstop for genetic decay and breakdown.
Somebody please add some pictures even if not yourself but others you might style hair for or have genetic linkage.
I believe in splicing.
Saw on CBC a show about a hair growth product that causes ppl insomnia and suicide. Might want to search the CBC website.
