People who don't experience hair loss have no idea how devastating it can be to a blokes self confidence ( and women). Its devastating. Good luck to those who investigate and take the bold step. I can add one thing to fiasteride. Dermarolling with capsicum. Huge growth. Multivitamin with zinc. Best wishes to those who are battling.
I saw a video of a guy who did the dermarolling thing with shampoo for hair growth and got good results, it's a long process though but seems like a good option. I think I'll try it since I'm slowly starting to lose my hairline. Also, what is capsicum?
I'm bald. I still have some hair at the top but if I leave it grow out, the sides will just make it look really thin since the sides are so much healthier. One day I just said enough with this (being on minoxidil for 2 years) so I just went in front of the mirror with my trimmer set at minimum and started working. I was so afraid of what people might say and yes, I was right. My close friends were like "you look like your dad...", "man, no hair... damn" Few days later, found out that my coworkers didn't share the same opinion as my friends, in fact, people that were new ar my working place said they cannot imagine me having hair since it suits me so well being short hair. Later I started to gain more confidence, my charisma was off the charts and I had a lot more time. No more stressing myself with the wind blowing in my hair revealing a bald spot, no more constant checking in mirrors, no more minutes spent on my hair trying to mask being bald (before leaving the house). And I thought I was better looking before deciding to cut my hair. That was just my narcisistic side speaking in my head. And I guess that was a toxic side. 1 out of 10 girls would date me before but after the big decision I felt like there was no limit. Literally I had any girl I wanted (now I'm married). And speaking of marriage, my wife dated me when I had hair like 10 years ago and it didn't work out, she didn't feel like I was the one she was looking for. Today she's madly inloved with me and she compliments me more than I compliment her, haha. Guys, literally I'm a better person and loosing all the stress and cutting my hair was the best decision of my Life. In a few days my daughter will be born. :)
Yeah, I still have hair up top just a bit thin and I started buzzing it short and honestly it's so much better. I look more masculine with a buzzcut and it feels more masculine to be able to take a quick shower and not have to worry about going out on a windy day or sweating a little. Sure, I can't do any crazy styles but that just means I don't have to worry about the stress of finding a good hair stylist, buying and choosing hair products, and styling my hair every day and worrying about my style getting fucked up by the wind or heat, and the bad haircuts leading up to finding a good stylist, and the cost of those haircuts. I don't have those crappy awkward periods before I go to the barber because as soon as I feel my hair is too long and starting to look scruffy, I just buzz it myself right that moment and be done with it in about 20 minutes or so depending on how thorough I wanna be. That, and I've already done most of the hair styles I wanted to do. I had long hair down to my lower back in high school, did the mullet fringe thing, did the medium length pushed back waxed mullety thing. Putting in the hair products and washing them out, and the painfully long showers when I had long hair sucked ass, as did having to wait for my hair to dry before bed, as well as the long amount of time spent shampooing / conditioning, and trying to wash all the crap out without dehydrating my scalp. On top of that, the amount of f'd up shit they put in hair products is crazy so I want to use as little and as few as possible and with a buzzcut, I honestly don't even need to shampoo my hair. For instance, the main ingredient of anti-dandruff shampoos, ketocoanazole is estrogenic and can make you grow bitch tits.
Damn, nice one man 🙏🏻 seeing so many of these comments and videos, people talking like it’s the literal end of the world and there’s no happiness in it at all… though everyone it happened too 10 plus years ago just got on with it and lived happy lives. But not people are willing to have hair transplants just to save their egos going through that pain, it’s kind of sad. But not you and you’ve inspired me, so thanks!
I’m on the same regimen and it’s worked wonders. The key is to start as SOON as you notice thinning. You have to be proactive because once you have an actual bald spot, it’s extremely hard to reverse. People who say these treatments don’t work are the ones who are too far gone in their hair loss journey.
@@sadieadler4383 you will definitely not grow back a full head of hair hahah. Too far gone at that point. You may see SLIGHT new growth but most likely nothing substantial. Prevention is key here
@@karjun4644 I got you man! I can tell you here. It’s super easy. Just like in the video, minoxidil and finasteride are your best bet to stop hair loss in its tracks and even potentially reverse it
I’ve had long hair for almost 2 years now and I wanna keep it for the rest of my life due to feeling so much more confident but recently I’ve noticed miniaturization on my hairline and it’s honestly so discouraging... I havent finished watching this video yet as im writing this but Im really hoping to find something that will help me. For all my brothers who are suffering from the same thing you’re not alone and thank you Trav for doing what you’re doing 🙏🏻
I know there are many things that work for many fellas and ladies, but honestly, Adegen has worked amazingly for me. Only 4 months ago I was worried about having to shave my head soon, but in that time I've reversed so much of balding its crazy!
As someone who started noticing hair loss and receding hairline for the first time 1 month ago My life has not been the same The way it hits you, like a constant gripe you desperately want to do something against but don't know what to do, as you scroll through hundreds of TH-cam videos and articles, listen to a hundred advices, And the mirror somehow starts to scare you From absolutely looking at the mirror whenever I got the chance, to mustering confidence to look at it, everything changes.
To treat alopecia/bald spots/baldness/ receding hairline, put a couple sprigs of rosemary and a handful of cloves in a container of boiling hot water and let steep overnight, strain and place in a spray bottle. Use it on your problem area/whole scalp for growth. Refrigerate the rest to preserve, it really worked for me, might work for you too, and I've tried things like minoxidil.
I feel the same man, i went to a doctor and she recommended to start mesotherapy,PRP injections and Pantogar spray (vitamins) and she said it needs like 3-4 months to start feeling its getting better. I started my first mesotherapy and hopefully it will workout
I'm only 22 and I shed so much hair every time I shower, this encouraged me to change my routine up, though I still have a nice set of hair I want to keep it for as long as I live
Me too. I noticed a big change after following Trav's recommendations. Are you using shampoo very gently, only on your scalp? Are you wringing your hair instead of using a towel to rough it up? Good luck
More Plates More Dates as well. If you want a more (and I don't mean to insult these guys) accurate view of hair loss prevention, Derek has all the info about Minoxidil, Finasteride, Dutasteride, RU54481, Dermarolling, and other treatments. He does bodybuilding and skincare too but that's not as relevent for me.
LMAO! "I'm Bat Man", *Voice Crack*! 😂🤣😂🤣😂. That made my Morning! My Dad taught us, "If you can't laugh at yourself 1st, you shouldn't laugh at anyone else!". I do it all the time, and I now see, you do too! What an Amazing Journey & Transformation!!! What a Sense of Humor he has too!!! Congrats on your Journey!!! You certainly have an Epic Mane!!! I can't wait to see, your end goal!!!!
@@sadieadler4383 Yeah that's my hair. When I wear my hair down its not as noticeable but when I have my hair back, you can notice the classic V shaped receding head line. Still looks decent which is why I don't care.
I've personally had 4 hair transplants. My first was about 7 years ago, and I'm 40 now. I wouldn't trade the money spent on the transplants for anything! They gave me my confidence back! Thanks for sharing.
Vitamins also play a significant role. If you start losing your hair, check your vitamin levels. I know D3 that most people are deficient unless you live in a 24/7 sunny place. Vitamin D is crucial for hair growth. I take supplement D3 every day. Foods like avocados, sweet potatoes, flaxseeds are fantastic for the hair and the scalp. Great video, Trav. I'm happy for Chris. I hope he can stop taking meds without losing hair.
I too think vitamin d deficiency plays a big role too. I've been avoiding sun completely for about a year and a half and I'm losing hair. Plus my injuries are taking wayyyyyyyyyyyy longer to heal and my bones sometimes hurt at specific places.
@@wasiqurrahman1717 Damn. Yeah, vitamin D is a vital vitamin. I take D3 made with coconut oil. I got it on Amazon. As I read reviews about the particular brand, “SR,” I came across a review that said, “it made my hair grow back.” I'm trying to include the link, but it's not letting me post the comment. Check it out. It's in a black bottle.
Another great video Trav, and Christopher, that great British sense of humour really shines through brother!! As a life long, long hair wearer I didn't think that there would be anything left for me to learn..., boy was I wrong! Mannered Manes is where it's all happening folks..., a great bunch of guys and gals over there, all putting in the effort to help each other out..., a truly inspirational group. Congrats Chris, I wish you every success going forward..., see you all in group! 💪🏼👍🏼
Your channel and page are a really good way of getting good info while having a community and avoiding the toxic misinformation abyss of Reddit forums about this subject.
Awesome, great information. My dad lost all of his hair by the time he was 24. A stylist told me he noticed thinning on my crown and my hairline when I was 24 - he was 100% right. Before that I never thought about my hair (or cared at all tbh). I did some research and got on finasteride and minoxidil. I'm now 27 and my hair is very thick and grows fast, I get compliments on it (never happened before, ever), and I really appreciate it more in general. It totally worked for me, guys who think they see the signs should at least give it a try for 4-6 months and see how much ground can be regained after the initial shedding period.
@@litheshshetty7839 every brand contains the same percentage of minoxidil, 5 percent. The difference is in the other medium which has no negative effect on hair whatsoever. Best would be foam over liquid, as the latter can leave you with greasy hair and cause itchiness.
My hair has been long since childhood and the past 2 years (I'm 22 this year) and the hair loss has been astounding and upsetting especially with that same way he described, that light angle is just. Woah. I've started to look into alot of things to try and reverse or atleast halt the loss. I have a terrible head shape if I were to go bald. I'm gonna try the Finasteride on Mon-wed-fri like he did
Take vitamins and drink water..and there may not be any research. I have a feeling alot of it is the chemicals in our food..Need to raise money so we can find a cure..We can go to Mars but cant cure hairlosss..idk..i find it to be ridiculous..and make sure to buy a good shampoo and wash your hair..And if you want to keep your hair..you cant slack off there are no off days there are no your to sick.you suck it the F up and do what you have to do
I'm 24. I noticed in high school that my temples became exposed and I thought it was a mature hairline so I shrugged it off. My father is bald and all the men in his family, his father included are all bald except one lucky uncle. But back in eighth grade science, I learned that men can tell if they will go bald based on their maternal grandfather and I counted myself lucky since my grandpappy is a silver fox. Well, I'm noticing now that the right temple hairline has grown higher, if I expose it I definitely look like I am balding. I do love my hair, I don't want to lose it at all and I've been styling my hair by parting it in the middle to comb it to each side, disguising my temples. That's going to be harder to do, and I have to accept that I'm just slowly going to go bald. Thank you Trav White and thank you Christopher Painter. I've been a nervous wreck but finding Trav's channel and now learning about Christopher last journey has given me confidence, and I think it's about time I speak up to a doctor and learn about possible treatment. It's time I start fighting to maintain my hair before it's too late.
no shampoo, wash with cold clean water. also avoid shitty foods, our body is a plant, we should be made of clay. If you have questions, i can can answer.
It's a shame because some guys look at managing your hair loss with medication as some sort of taboo subject. We have to hide the fact we take finasteride, minoxidil etc.. these aren't any different to applying standard shampoos, oils etc. End of the day they serve the same purpose which is looking after your hair and to maintain what you have for as long as possible, not just to only re-grow.
The reason why it's taboo (and you're quite right that it is), has to do with the fact that taking Finasteride is hormonal therapy for aesthetics rather than medical reasons.
@@ADAPTATION7 You're right. My issue is that if women can get botox, implants, lip fillers etc which is seen as normal in todays society then surely a man taking a pill to maintain or regrow his hair without surgery has nothing to be anxious about whatsoever.
They aren't going to hold your hairs instead of your follicles and they aren't going to finish breakfast for your hunger ,, it's your need bruh!,,, just don't give a fuck bruhhhhh!!! If your guys are boiiss they are literally gonna be fucked up by MPB in Future and they will ask some tips from you for sure😂
Finasteride works! I'm 20 and I started taking it around 3 1/2 months ago and my hair has almost doubled in thickness. I was born with a super deep hairline (looks receded but isn't) and now baby hairs are starting to pop up. I still have more progress to make, but I'm pleased with the results. If you are balding or just starting to notice, take fin before you start minoxidil. This is because once you start m ur stuck with it for life. if you stop it, the hairs you grew from it will fall out, even if you are taking fin. Give fin 6 months before you decide if u want to use m as well. I only use it once a day, so it's not a hassle. I just put it on 2 hours before bed. Now that my hair is starting to look normal again, I'm gonna grow it out like Thor!
I’m 21 and I think my hair is starting to thin a little but I don’t wanna take finasteride or minoxidil cause of side affects that can potentially pop up. Have u noticed low libido while on finasteride? Also have u tried saw palmetto? It’s a natural form but I’m also wondering what kinda side affects it has
@@Ozzyozzysheesh i recommend you to make a experiment on yourself ,just analyse how's your body reacting to the drug ..give a 6 month span atleast ,,as half life is short the side effects are reversible after discontinuing treatment ...good luck
@@Ozzyozzysheesh Taking saw palmetto for 6-7 weeks now. Miniaturized hairs are growing longer. 3 months since last haircut and its growing as if i had it cut five months ago. More libido overtime.
I've been experimenting with Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling and have had some regrowth so far but it's been like 6 months since starting. I'm still not really sure on what the most optimal microneedling routine/frequency is though. 1mm once a week seems too frequent or inconvenient for me but have been kinda trying to do 1.25mm every two weeks instead. Some people do like 1.5mm once every 3 weeks apparently. I also use Biotin and Nizoral. My boy had that Vegeta hairline goin. 👍
it is ducking amazing that 2021 and we still taking minoxidil (for hipertesion) and finasteride (for benign prostatic hyperplasia) for baldness ..what the heck... I WANT SOMETHING SPECIFIC FOR HAIRLOSS... where is that product???
@@jacksonpies6375 he is explaining on a potential way you can stop/slow down the process of balding and is also giving advice on how to do it in a safe manner.
I have a very low chance for male pattern baldness in my future looking at the males on both sides of my family going well into their 60s, 70s, and 80s with full heads of hair, although my dad does have a widows peak, this video is also very helpful. Thank you Trav, and Christopher for sharing.
@@KittyCurioso I do have a widows peak like my father, and his father, but that said, the men on my mom’s side go their entire lives with full heads of hair.
I was thinning and losing hair quick in my late 30s. I managed to slow down and hair is feeling thicker after taking Biotin, Saw Palmetto, Pro Biotics, and Vitamin D, lots of water, wooden brush massages help with blood flow to scalp for 3 minutes in a day circular motion
May I know what was your dosage? I've been taking these supplements for at least 2mths now and have yet to see any improvements in hair regrowth and thickening :(
I took monoxidil for two months before bed but started waking up with vertigo and dizziness. It would persist for most of the morning so I had to stop the treatment. Now not sure whether to try with a smaller dose or simply leave it. Might be best to consult with the dermatologist again but I feel they tend to prescribe medication because it benefits them too
@@Jomzi01 the dermatologist said we could try with a lower dose but I decided not to in the end. I guess my comment of “it benefits them” is a bit misleading, as dermatologists just prescribe what helps to treat the complaint and not everyone gets side effects.
congrats with your hair regrowth journey. My grandad had great hair until he went cactus at the youthful ages of 91. Me old man is losing hais hair like Homer Simpson, I have noticed tons of hair falling out during lockdown last year and since the grown has thinning out. I'm going to bite the bullet and speak to a GP/Pharmacist and see if I can get on some solid treatment.
I appreciate you man. You are a great fighter. There are so many channels in TH-cam that courage people to bald their head and face their genetic and destiny to get bald either sooner. But you fight for your hairs and this is nice and If you didn't you will lose all of your hairs. Epic man 👌👌👌
You don't have to take the 10% (1 mg) fenestride. 0.5mg and even 0.2mg (although a slower rate and volume) are known for saving your crown. The side effects are lower and even at 1mg, the side effects is very minimal. You can also take Tongkat Ali and glass of beet juice, to keep your sexual health topnotch. Pumpkinseed oil, rosemary oil and coffee (DHT blocker) perform as good and even better in some cases than Minoxidil. You can make a concoction of all three and use it every other day. A daily scalp massage also helps.
You know, hair loss and male pattern baldness aside.... head n shoulders is the last shampoo I used before I noticed my hair thinning. whatever is in that stuff, it is fucked. Best tips I can provide from my experience: 0. Check your water for fluoride and chlorine levels, both do disgustingly high levels of damage to your overall health and hair so get a filter system for your shower, and if you want cleaner safer water get a water purifier for your house. Somewhat expensive but worth every penny for the health benefit. 1. stop using head n shoulders, or whatever cheap stuff you find at CVS. Get good stuff, and make sure it corresponds with your hair type 2. use lots of rosemary oil on your scalp, it kills DHT (highly effective) 3. Drink lots of water, as well as green tea. Using green tea on your head also works for killing DHT 4. Apparently hair loss is also linked to vitamin D deficiency so get lots of sun, I recommend 30 minutes no shirt, maybe wear shorts or underwear (key here is to get as much sun as possible on your skin) and lay Front and back for 30 minutes each. 5. Brush less if you brush your hair too often, once a day should be good enough. use detanglers if you need to.
Excellent advice thank you for sharing. Can't take any sun outside in London UK it's bloody cold and storm Eunice is raging outside with trees falling everywhere! Would like to hear your story on Rosemary & Green Tea have they worked for you?
It's my first time growing my hair, and your videos have been really helpful on this journey. I use an egg mask to my hair weekly and rub my scalp thrice weekly with litttllextra coocoonion oil. Afterward, I wash it off with cocoonion shampoo, and I stick to this routine consistently. I'm pleased to say that my hair fall is gone now.
My mom was balding due to stress n cancer n honestly she would boil an avocado seed and the juice from it you put it in your shampoo and conditioner or just shampoo n now her hair is thicker than ever and her hairline grew back
I reversed my hair loss through the use of Finasteride to prevent the falling out, and a daily dose of Naära, from Jeunesse. The collagen really helped a lot to grow out what was already missing on my scalp.
I tried Minoxidil and Finesteride through the Belgravia Center. Really nice people. I couldnt continue it though because I hated the side effects. I had constant brain fog, my libido was shot, and I developed weird breathing issues. A few days off the Finesteride I was back to normal. I honestly wish there was a natural treatment for male pattern baldness. It sucks indeed.
Glad things are working for Christopher. Wish there was a way without using stuff with possible side effects, don’t like the idea of having to use medication for the rest of my life to keep the hair, but maybe that’s the only choice.
I'm 56 and had long thick hair then started loading creatine monohydrate one morning my hair was falling out so much so I lost about 30 to 40 percent over the next month. Needless to say I was totally freaking out. So quit the creatine and now four months later seems to be under control and growing back in. I have no male pattern baldness. Moral becareful the supplements you take .
Interesting. I take 5g of creatine daily and I haven’t noticed anything. I have read a study that it can potentially increase DHT, but it would also come down to the individual’s genetic predisposition to DHT sensitivity
About my creatine intake. I was loading 20 mg's daily for about a month. It was my only diet change. After about three weeks once I stopped taking it my hair quit falling out but still took time get it under control. I take trace minerals and a prenatal daily, hate to admit that one although they work for me. At least there is lots of new growth coming in. Maybe it was the amount of creatine I was taking.
Thanks for sharing man! I've only begun my journey in this direction. It's been almost two months of Minoxidyl treatment and dermarolling. I'll see how it looks in a year)
Microneedling works well with minoxidil, it improves the gains by like 4x You have to be consistent with it, 1.5mm once a week. Just don't use minox on the microneedling day because it'll go systemic
I'm especially vain when it comes too my hair. I'm growing it out and experiencing male pattern baldness. Gonna talk to my doctor about getting something too help reverse it. Thanks to you and Trav !

Great vid, thanks for sharing! I used to think it was DHT 'attacking' my hair, because that's what we're all told, but then when i learned DHT elsewhere in the body enables hair growth, that's when I turned a corner in the fight. Cheers guys 🤜

Hey Trav can you make a video of how to straighten curly/wavy hair without damaging the hair or ruining your hair growth, I know we obviously can’t turn curly hair into 100% straight hair, but I just can’t deal with curly hair anymore, it literally ruins my day because I get out of the shower looking like a million bucks next day when I got to go to school BOOM A CREATURE NEST ON YOUR HAIR😂 100 knots and UGH just so frustrating, is there any tips to make your hair straight naturally?
Hair straighteners plus heat protect spray. I only wash my (mega curly) hair twice a week, and it stays straight enough between washes. Also, I’m using a brush style straightener rather than the more traditional clamp style (it was cheaper, and it’s less likely to burn you as the elements are protected). My hair is so curly that I always kept it pretty short (basically no 3 all over) but with the barbers all closed during lockdown I decided to try the straightener route over the diy haircut route. Now I’m planning on growing it out!
I’ve been taking topical minoxidil and finasteride for 2 months. So far no side effects, I’m praying that I don’t get any and that it works because if it does I’ll gladly take it until the day I die.
Hey Trav, I’m pretty sure that I have protein overload in my hair cause no matter if my hair is wet or not I have straw-like dry feeling hair. I don’t think it’s high porosity because my hair in general remains damp for about 2 hours after showering. I think it may be caused by hydro fatigue cause I use conditioner everyday and it doesn’t help. What should I do?
You know you're not supposed to wash your hair everyday right? It strips all the oil the body naturally produces to protect the hair. conditioner will also do this as well as just weighing down your hair.
Protein overload and hydral fatigue are opposite things, which one is it? When you said Protein overload with dry draw like hair, I wanted to say use a deep conditioner that has no protein in it, but then you said hydral fatigue (usually means soft mushy hair) and I was going to say use a protein deep conditioner. You're right, damp hair after 2 hours is very close or exactly low porousity hair... Mine dries in like 30 minutes or less without a towel and braiding it to keep a bit of water in, I have high porousity.
@@daisiesandpandas1218 I would need to test the damp hair thing again to truly see what porosity i have but I think my hair was super dry because I have psoriasis (yellow flakes) on my scalp so I have been trying a head and shoulders 2 in 1 to try to fix that first and while it has removed some of the flake buildup I still have very dry hair and what looks like dead ends on even short hair.
@@TravWhiteStyle I wish to say, your channel has really helped me discover ways to handle longer hairstyles and had a large part in me pursuing that goal in the first place. Thanks a lot! - sincerely, a young man growing out his hair for the first time!
I was doubting about taking finasteride because I was afraid to lose my beard bc of some dht inhibition in my face or something, but seeing him, with that bushy beard, definately will give it a try.
In one NCBi issue ,,they stated that DHT's role when it comes to facial hair, it only helps at developing the beard where as thickness and texture of facial hairs are fully influenced by testosterone and plasma nutrition
Can someone tell me the most common hair loss symptoms that’s always start first cause I’m only 17 I think my hair is thinning on the side where my hair parting line is ar
I never had your hairline and thickness even at 16 or 17 yrs old Trav, but this guy Christopher I had that widows peak like that by 20. It will eventually go on him by 40.
im 17 and started losing hair a few months ago and idk what treatment to do or anything. i love my hair and im worried im gonna be bald before im even 20. im growin my hair out but im not confident that its gonna last long due to my hair loss
Dude same, but theres hope my friend Minoxidil + Micro needling (derma rolling) + 1mg finasteride + Ketoconazole Shampoo Apply 5% minoxidil once or twice a day, derma roll or use a derminator twice a week, make sure you space it out give your scalp some time to heal, take 1mg of oral finasteride everyday and in addition Use a ketoconazole shampoo which acts as a mild topical anti androgen. A pretty solid approach to stop diffused thinning and further hair loss, as well as potentially regrow hair in dead zones. But I havent stared this bc im still going thru puberty so once im around 20 I'll start
Yeah jumping on treatments ASAP is the way to go. I managed to get onto finasteride some 8 years ago now and I am so happy I did. I recovered nearly all my hair and maintained everything I had. I doubt many people would guess that I was fighting hair loss. The majority of the battle is accepting that you're losing hair and taking the first step by trialing the treatments available. I always support videos like this and try to comment as they're likely the thing that might make someone take that leap. Anywho, glad things worked out for Chris and thanks for sharing his experience.
@@hypnozgamingnl7166 Forever or until something better comes along. It doesn't worry me after so long. Even if one day I stopped taking it and embraced baldness. I'm really happy I had a full head of hair through my 20s and now 30s thanks to finasteride.
@@cinzley244 I just take 1mg a day. Has worked 8-9 years. Dutasteride I haven't taken so you should talk to your doctor about it. Personally unless your hairloss is super aggressive I would try Finasteride and make sure it agrees with you, then you can go from there.
I’m 38 and thought I was free from balding but 6 months ago I started to notice it receding. I don’t want to lose my hair but I’m not the kind of person to start popping pills that have side effects, ie any pharmaceutical products. I think I’ll just have to bite the bullet and get a transplant in 10 years or wait until there’s a natural and effective treatment. All I know is that balding sucks big time,
You’re going to have to fin and minx lol plenty of hair transplant surgeons won’t even do the hair transplant unless you got on those otherwise the rest of your hair is going to keep falling out.
That´s is. Most surgeons prescribe finasteride + minox after transplant, to keep your hair, otherwise you will get hair at the front and be bald at the back, and have "doll hair".
@Andre If you then follow the treatment it will be fine, also if u go to a doctor with brain he wont put you a 12 year old hairline, so then when you get olde and gave up on treatment you won´t be that bad

Thank you. As much as I appreciate informative videos such as these, there's absoloutely no reason for it to be 15 minutes...
He's such a likable guy, and I'm really happy for him, with his new mane
I'm bald. I still have some hair at the top but if I leave it grow out, the sides will just make it look really thin since the sides are so much healthier. One day I just said enough with this (being on minoxidil for 2 years) so I just went in front of the mirror with my trimmer set at minimum and started working. I was so afraid of what people might say and yes, I was right. My close friends were like "you look like your dad...", "man, no hair... damn"
Few days later, found out that my coworkers didn't share the same opinion as my friends, in fact, people that were new ar my working place said they cannot imagine me having hair since it suits me so well being short hair.
Later I started to gain more confidence, my charisma was off the charts and I had a lot more time. No more stressing myself with the wind blowing in my hair revealing a bald spot, no more constant checking in mirrors, no more minutes spent on my hair trying to mask being bald (before leaving the house).
And I thought I was better looking before deciding to cut my hair. That was just my narcisistic side speaking in my head. And I guess that was a toxic side. 1 out of 10 girls would date me before but after the big decision I felt like there was no limit. Literally I had any girl I wanted (now I'm married). And speaking of marriage, my wife dated me when I had hair like 10 years ago and it didn't work out, she didn't feel like I was the one she was looking for. Today she's madly inloved with me and she compliments me more than I compliment her, haha. Guys, literally I'm a better person and loosing all the stress and cutting my hair was the best decision of my Life. In a few days my daughter will be born. :)
Yeah, I still have hair up top just a bit thin and I started buzzing it short and honestly it's so much better. I look more masculine with a buzzcut and it feels more masculine to be able to take a quick shower and not have to worry about going out on a windy day or sweating a little. Sure, I can't do any crazy styles but that just means I don't have to worry about the stress of finding a good hair stylist, buying and choosing hair products, and styling my hair every day and worrying about my style getting fucked up by the wind or heat, and the bad haircuts leading up to finding a good stylist, and the cost of those haircuts. I don't have those crappy awkward periods before I go to the barber because as soon as I feel my hair is too long and starting to look scruffy, I just buzz it myself right that moment and be done with it in about 20 minutes or so depending on how thorough I wanna be.
That, and I've already done most of the hair styles I wanted to do. I had long hair down to my lower back in high school, did the mullet fringe thing, did the medium length pushed back waxed mullety thing. Putting in the hair products and washing them out, and the painfully long showers when I had long hair sucked ass, as did having to wait for my hair to dry before bed, as well as the long amount of time spent shampooing / conditioning, and trying to wash all the crap out without dehydrating my scalp.
On top of that, the amount of f'd up shit they put in hair products is crazy so I want to use as little and as few as possible and with a buzzcut, I honestly don't even need to shampoo my hair. For instance, the main ingredient of anti-dandruff shampoos, ketocoanazole is estrogenic and can make you grow bitch tits.
Epic comment. Happy for you mate💪
Damn, nice one man 🙏🏻 seeing so many of these comments and videos, people talking like it’s the literal end of the world and there’s no happiness in it at all… though everyone it happened too 10 plus years ago just got on with it and lived happy lives. But not people are willing to have hair transplants just to save their egos going through that pain, it’s kind of sad. But not you and you’ve inspired me, so thanks!
*losing
I’m on the same regimen and it’s worked wonders. The key is to start as SOON as you notice thinning. You have to be proactive because once you have an actual bald spot, it’s extremely hard to reverse. People who say these treatments don’t work are the ones who are too far gone in their hair loss journey.
What happens if yiu start taking this treatment when you're completely bald will it do anything at all?
@@sadieadler4383 you will definitely not grow back a full head of hair hahah. Too far gone at that point. You may see SLIGHT new growth but most likely nothing substantial. Prevention is key here
@@karjun4644 I got you man! I can tell you here. It’s super easy. Just like in the video, minoxidil and finasteride are your best bet to stop hair loss in its tracks and even potentially reverse it
@@karjun4644 minoxidil twice a day, in the morning and at night. Then a finasteride tablet once a day
@@Nick_Magliano i ll give it a try
I’ve had long hair for almost 2 years now and I wanna keep it for the rest of my life due to feeling so much more confident but recently I’ve noticed miniaturization on my hairline and it’s honestly so discouraging... I havent finished watching this video yet as im writing this but Im really hoping to find something that will help me. For all my brothers who are suffering from the same thing you’re not alone and thank you Trav for doing what you’re doing 🙏🏻
I know there are many things that work for many fellas and ladies, but honestly, Adegen has worked amazingly for me. Only 4 months ago I was worried about having to shave my head soon, but in that time I've reversed so much of balding its crazy!
@@Michael-gq9cd really?? Or u just a spam?
@@kotresh Nah I'm real, man. I know comments like that are typically fake haha
@@Michael-gq9cd I will look into this dude. Thank you!

As someone who started noticing hair loss and receding hairline for the first time 1 month ago
My life has not been the same
The way it hits you, like a constant gripe you desperately want to do something against but don't know what to do, as you scroll through hundreds of TH-cam videos and articles, listen to a hundred advices,
And the mirror somehow starts to scare you
From absolutely looking at the mirror whenever I got the chance, to mustering confidence to look at it, everything changes.
To treat alopecia/bald spots/baldness/ receding hairline, put a couple sprigs of rosemary and a handful of cloves in a container of boiling hot water and let steep overnight, strain and place in a spray bottle. Use it on your problem area/whole scalp for growth. Refrigerate the rest to preserve, it really worked for me, might work for you too, and I've tried things like minoxidil.
Just get a transplant bruh
I feel the same man, i went to a doctor and she recommended to start mesotherapy,PRP injections and Pantogar spray (vitamins) and she said it needs like 3-4 months to start feeling its getting better.
I started my first mesotherapy and hopefully it will workout
@@JordanMac79 Well that comes down to how bad yu want to end your problems.
@@ricardo4hunnid896 Transplants should be dooms day plan. I recommend trying everything else out before going to plan Z right off the bat.
I'm only 22 and I shed so much hair every time I shower, this encouraged me to change my routine up, though I still have a nice set of hair I want to keep it for as long as I live
Same..
We got this
Me too. I noticed a big change after following Trav's recommendations. Are you using shampoo very gently, only on your scalp? Are you wringing your hair instead of using a towel to rough it up? Good luck
I hope your channel grows massively, bro. pretty much the only authentic hair channel

Vitamins also play a significant role. If you start losing your hair, check your vitamin levels. I know D3 that most people are deficient unless you live in a 24/7 sunny place. Vitamin D is crucial for hair growth. I take supplement D3 every day. Foods like avocados, sweet potatoes, flaxseeds are fantastic for the hair and the scalp. Great video, Trav. I'm happy for Chris. I hope he can stop taking meds without losing hair.
Ever heard of barley grass? You can take it as powder or a tablet and it has amazing properties. Lots of zinc, biotin, selen etc.
I too think vitamin d deficiency plays a big role too. I've been avoiding sun completely for about a year and a half and I'm losing hair. Plus my injuries are taking wayyyyyyyyyyyy longer to heal and my bones sometimes hurt at specific places.
@@intrinsicOw
Yea, I heard about barley grass, but I didn’t know the benefits of it. Thanks for letting me know.
@@wasiqurrahman1717
Damn. Yeah, vitamin D is a vital vitamin. I take D3 made with coconut oil. I got it on Amazon. As I read reviews about the particular brand, “SR,” I came across a review that said, “it made my hair grow back.” I'm trying to include the link, but it's not letting me post the comment. Check it out. It's in a black bottle.
I was losing hair due to Zinc deficiency. Started supplementing Zinc and my hair stopped falling out and it's all good now.
Another great video Trav, and Christopher, that great British sense of humour really shines through brother!!
As a life long, long hair wearer I didn't think that there would be anything left for me to learn..., boy was I wrong!

Thanks dude!
Your channel and page are a really good way of getting good info while having a community and avoiding the toxic misinformation abyss of Reddit forums about this subject.
Awesome, great information. My dad lost all of his hair by the time he was 24. A stylist told me he noticed thinning on my crown and my hairline when I was 24 - he was 100% right. Before that I never thought about my hair (or cared at all tbh). I did some research and got on finasteride and minoxidil. I'm now 27 and my hair is very thick and grows fast, I get compliments on it (never happened before, ever), and I really appreciate it more in general. It totally worked for me, guys who think they see the signs should at least give it a try for 4-6 months and see how much ground can be regained after the initial shedding period.
Damn that's a great result ngl
What minixidil u use?
@@laurenshoogendam464 ppl say rogain is the best minoxidil but u can do some research and take a good one
which minoxdil is good bro?
@@litheshshetty7839 every brand contains the same percentage of minoxidil, 5 percent. The difference is in the other medium which has no negative effect on hair whatsoever. Best would be foam over liquid, as the latter can leave you with greasy hair and cause itchiness.

My hair has been long since childhood and the past 2 years (I'm 22 this year) and the hair loss has been astounding and upsetting especially with that same way he described, that light angle is just. Woah. I've started to look into alot of things to try and reverse or atleast halt the loss. I have a terrible head shape if I were to go bald. I'm gonna try the Finasteride on Mon-wed-fri like he did

Hair looks good, man, with it parted in center. Rock on!
As always, love the honesty and frankness 👌🏾
I'm 24. I noticed in high school that my temples became exposed and I thought it was a mature hairline so I shrugged it off. My father is bald and all the men in his family, his father included are all bald except one lucky uncle. But back in eighth grade science, I learned that men can tell if they will go bald based on their maternal grandfather and I counted myself lucky since my grandpappy is a silver fox.
Well, I'm noticing now that the right temple hairline has grown higher, if I expose it I definitely look like I am balding. I do love my hair, I don't want to lose it at all and I've been styling my hair by parting it in the middle to comb it to each side, disguising my temples. That's going to be harder to do, and I have to accept that I'm just slowly going to go bald.
Thank you Trav White and thank you Christopher Painter. I've been a nervous wreck but finding Trav's channel and now learning about Christopher last journey has given me confidence, and I think it's about time I speak up to a doctor and learn about possible treatment. It's time I start fighting to maintain my hair before it's too late.
no shampoo, wash with cold clean water.
also avoid shitty foods, our body is a plant, we should be made of clay. If you have questions, i can can answer.
the picture in the thumbnail is exactly what my hairline looks like and i’m only 17! i want to find a way to fix it before it’s too late
Right on homie. I’m on month 4. I saw ur first video and was super encouraged.
how is it going now?
Onion juice. Natural and no temporary fix. It works. I mask the smell by putting a few drops of peppermint oil 👍
Hey! Do you ingest it, or apply it topically?
I agree they are lots of support and thanks To Trav White!.... much love for starting this channel 💙✌😎
I had a hair transplant and I use minoxidal, dermarolling etc etc. Getting awesome results :)
Been growing my hair out, this my main channel to go to with long hair care.
No one cares
Same bro. I saw in a video and someone’s said if you are going bald one of the worst things you can do is grow your hair out and it kinda scared me.
nobody needs a ad for a hair growth product
Where is the summary guy
It's a shame because some guys look at managing your hair loss with medication as some sort of taboo subject. We have to hide the fact we take finasteride, minoxidil etc.. these aren't any different to applying standard shampoos, oils etc. End of the day they serve the same purpose which is looking after your hair and to maintain what you have for as long as possible, not just to only re-grow.
The reason why it's taboo (and you're quite right that it is), has to do with the fact that taking Finasteride is hormonal therapy for aesthetics rather than medical reasons.
@@ADAPTATION7 You're right. My issue is that if women can get botox, implants, lip fillers etc which is seen as normal in todays society then surely a man taking a pill to maintain or regrow his hair without surgery has nothing to be anxious about whatsoever.
They aren't going to hold your hairs instead of your follicles and they aren't going to finish breakfast for your hunger ,, it's your need bruh!,,, just don't give a fuck bruhhhhh!!! If your guys are boiiss they are literally gonna be fucked up by MPB in Future and they will ask some tips from you for sure😂
I used to dream to be like Vegeta when I was a little boy.. Now I kinda regret it..
Lovely to hear someone be so honest about their journey
Finasteride works! I'm 20 and I started taking it around 3 1/2 months ago and my hair has almost doubled in thickness. I was born with a super deep hairline (looks receded but isn't) and now baby hairs are starting to pop up. I still have more progress to make, but I'm pleased with the results. If you are balding or just starting to notice, take fin before you start minoxidil. This is because once you start m ur stuck with it for life. if you stop it, the hairs you grew from it will fall out, even if you are taking fin. Give fin 6 months before you decide if u want to use m as well. I only use it once a day, so it's not a hassle. I just put it on 2 hours before bed. Now that my hair is starting to look normal again, I'm gonna grow it out like Thor!
I’m 21 and I think my hair is starting to thin a little but I don’t wanna take finasteride or minoxidil cause of side affects that can potentially pop up. Have u noticed low libido while on finasteride? Also have u tried saw palmetto? It’s a natural form but I’m also wondering what kinda side affects it has
what's ur regimen? finasteride and minoxidil at the same time?
Do you get any of the side affects from taking them?
@@Ozzyozzysheesh i recommend you to make a experiment on yourself ,just analyse how's your body reacting to the drug ..give a 6 month span atleast ,,as half life is short the side effects are reversible after discontinuing treatment ...good luck
@@Ozzyozzysheesh Taking saw palmetto for 6-7 weeks now. Miniaturized hairs are growing longer. 3 months since last haircut and its growing as if i had it cut five months ago. More libido overtime.
I've been experimenting with Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling and have had some regrowth so far but it's been like 6 months since starting. I'm still not really sure on what the most optimal microneedling routine/frequency is though. 1mm once a week seems too frequent or inconvenient for me but have been kinda trying to do 1.25mm every two weeks instead. Some people do like 1.5mm once every 3 weeks apparently.
I also use Biotin and Nizoral.
My boy had that Vegeta hairline goin. 👍
0.5mm every day for a month.
@@largepoodle6036what results you got?

It’s your mothers side that dictates hair loss not your fathers side. You may need to reassess. That said, good luck
@@KittyCurioso I do have a widows peak like my father, and his father, but that said, the men on my mom’s side go their entire lives with full heads of hair.
I was thinning and losing hair quick in my late 30s. I managed to slow down and hair is feeling thicker after taking Biotin, Saw Palmetto, Pro Biotics, and Vitamin D, lots of water, wooden brush massages help with blood flow to scalp for 3 minutes in a day circular motion
Saw palmetto did wonders to my hair. It completely stopped my hair shedding
May I know what was your dosage? I've been taking these supplements for at least 2mths now and have yet to see any improvements in hair regrowth and thickening :(
I took monoxidil for two months before bed but started waking up with vertigo and dizziness. It would persist for most of the morning so I had to stop the treatment. Now not sure whether to try with a smaller dose or simply leave it. Might be best to consult with the dermatologist again but I feel they tend to prescribe medication because it benefits them too
Update?
@@Jomzi01 the dermatologist said we could try with a lower dose but I decided not to in the end. I guess my comment of “it benefits them” is a bit misleading, as dermatologists just prescribe what helps to treat the complaint and not everyone gets side effects.
do 1/2 ml or .5 ml that helps with sides thats what I do 2x a day
Use rosemary instead of minoxidil
He does have a magnetic personality!!!
congrats with your hair regrowth journey. My grandad had great hair until he went cactus at the youthful ages of 91. Me old man is losing hais hair like Homer Simpson, I have noticed tons of hair falling out during lockdown last year and since the grown has thinning out. I'm going to bite the bullet and speak to a GP/Pharmacist and see if I can get on some solid treatment.
I appreciate you man. You are a great fighter. There are so many channels in TH-cam that courage people to bald their head and face their genetic and destiny to get bald either sooner. But you fight for your hairs and this is nice and If you didn't you will lose all of your hairs. Epic man 👌👌👌
Dude you’re so relatable. I’m going through the same thing
You don't have to take the 10% (1 mg) fenestride. 0.5mg and even 0.2mg (although a slower rate and volume) are known for saving your crown. The side effects are lower and even at 1mg, the side effects is very minimal.
You can also take Tongkat Ali and glass of beet juice, to keep your sexual health topnotch.
Pumpkinseed oil, rosemary oil and coffee (DHT blocker) perform as good and even better in some cases than Minoxidil. You can make a concoction of all three and use it every other day. A daily scalp massage also helps.
You know, hair loss and male pattern baldness aside.... head n shoulders is the last shampoo I used before I noticed my hair thinning. whatever is in that stuff, it is fucked. Best tips I can provide from my experience:
0. Check your water for fluoride and chlorine levels, both do disgustingly high levels of damage to your overall health and hair so get a filter system for your shower, and if you want cleaner safer water get a water purifier for your house. Somewhat expensive but worth every penny for the health benefit.
1. stop using head n shoulders, or whatever cheap stuff you find at CVS. Get good stuff, and make sure it corresponds with your hair type
2. use lots of rosemary oil on your scalp, it kills DHT (highly effective)
3. Drink lots of water, as well as green tea. Using green tea on your head also works for killing DHT
4. Apparently hair loss is also linked to vitamin D deficiency so get lots of sun, I recommend 30 minutes no shirt, maybe wear shorts or underwear (key here is to get as much sun as possible on your skin) and lay Front and back for 30 minutes each.
5. Brush less if you brush your hair too often, once a day should be good enough. use detanglers if you need to.
Excellent advice thank you for sharing. Can't take any sun outside in London UK it's bloody cold and storm Eunice is raging outside with trees falling everywhere!
Would like to hear your story on Rosemary & Green Tea have they worked for you?

in my personal opinion that london blokes hair looks great and should continue maintaining the long haired look, it suits him
I reversed my hair loss through the use of Finasteride to prevent the falling out, and a daily dose of Naära, from Jeunesse. The collagen really helped a lot to grow out what was already missing on my scalp.
I tried Minoxidil and Finesteride through the Belgravia Center. Really nice people. I couldnt continue it though because I hated the side effects. I had constant brain fog, my libido was shot, and I developed weird breathing issues. A few days off the Finesteride I was back to normal. I honestly wish there was a natural treatment for male pattern baldness. It sucks indeed.

Glad things are working for Christopher. Wish there was a way without using stuff with possible side effects, don’t like the idea of having to use medication for the rest of my life to keep the hair, but maybe that’s the only choice.
For the mean time until science finds an actual solution
I'm 56 and had long thick hair then started loading creatine monohydrate one morning my hair was falling out so much so I lost about 30 to 40 percent over the next month. Needless to say I was totally freaking out. So quit the creatine and now four months later seems to be under control and growing back in. I have no male pattern baldness. Moral becareful the supplements you take .
Interesting. I take 5g of creatine daily and I haven’t noticed anything. I have read a study that it can potentially increase DHT, but it would also come down to the individual’s genetic predisposition to DHT sensitivity
Iirc. a lot of energy drinks also have creatine.
About my creatine intake. I was loading 20 mg's daily for about a month. It was my only diet change. After about three weeks once I stopped taking it my hair quit falling out but still took time get it under control. I take trace minerals and a prenatal daily, hate to admit that one although they work for me. At least there is lots of new growth coming in. Maybe it was the amount of creatine I was taking.
Been working out for 8 years and have been taking creatine over 5 of those years. Never had a problem with creatine.
Creatine is in every meat product we eat, especially red meat.

Good to hear!
Your friends results are pretty amazing.
He could also try microneedling on his hairline.
But i don't know a lot about it
Microneedling works well with minoxidil, it improves the gains by like 4x
You have to be consistent with it, 1.5mm once a week. Just don't use minox on the microneedling day because it'll go systemic
These kind of videos are so inspiring when most other people are just like "yeah just shave your head you can't fight hair loss"
@Charming Chowder completely agree, don't give up on what you really want man I'm right there with you
Awesome vid!!
Another treatment I discovered is scalp massages. Many methods to relax the muscles around the scalp to promote growth.
I’ve been doing the same for a year now. It really does work.

Great vid, thanks for sharing! I used to think it was DHT 'attacking' my hair, because that's what we're all told, but then when i learned DHT elsewhere in the body enables hair growth, that's when I turned a corner in the fight. Cheers guys 🤜
Excess of anything is bad. dht poisons the hair root by producing too much keratin. (google translate)
So what do you do now
What do u fo
Customer: "Thanks for inviting me for the hair consultation. What are the results?"
Hair clinic: "After a thorough analysis by our team of experts we can confirm you are balding ..."
Customer: "That's what I thought!"
Hair clinic: "... and that'll be £1000 for the consultation."
You don't pay for the opinion. You pay for the confirmation.
Hey Trav can you make a video of how to straighten curly/wavy hair without damaging the hair or ruining your hair growth, I know we obviously can’t turn curly hair into 100% straight hair, but I just can’t deal with curly hair anymore, it literally ruins my day because I get out of the shower looking like a million bucks next day when I got to go to school BOOM A CREATURE NEST ON YOUR HAIR😂 100 knots and UGH just so frustrating, is there any tips to make your hair straight naturally?
Hair straighteners plus heat protect spray.
I only wash my (mega curly) hair twice a week, and it stays straight enough between washes. Also, I’m using a brush style straightener rather than the more traditional clamp style (it was cheaper, and it’s less likely to burn you as the elements are protected).
My hair is so curly that I always kept it pretty short (basically no 3 all over) but with the barbers all closed during lockdown I decided to try the straightener route over the diy haircut route. Now I’m planning on growing it out!
I’ve been taking topical minoxidil and finasteride for 2 months. So far no side effects, I’m praying that I don’t get any and that it works because if it does I’ll gladly take it until the day I die.
Bro awesome look 😍😘😘😘
You really getting brain lags from that Finasteride, bro? O_O
Please don't, I've used the same things and it worked great but it's not worth the side effects. Please be aware and look it up yourself!
What did you experience?
Is there any way to get back to norwood stage zero?
Hey Trav, I’m pretty sure that I have protein overload in my hair cause no matter if my hair is wet or not I have straw-like dry feeling hair. I don’t think it’s high porosity because my hair in general remains damp for about 2 hours after showering. I think it may be caused by hydro fatigue cause I use conditioner everyday and it doesn’t help. What should I do?
Same dude
Before you shower put a dollop of coconut oil in your hands and spread it evenly through your hair
You know you're not supposed to wash your hair everyday right? It strips all the oil the body naturally produces to protect the hair. conditioner will also do this as well as just weighing down your hair.
Protein overload and hydral fatigue are opposite things, which one is it?
When you said Protein overload with dry draw like hair, I wanted to say use a deep conditioner that has no protein in it, but then you said hydral fatigue (usually means soft mushy hair) and I was going to say use a protein deep conditioner.
You're right, damp hair after 2 hours is very close or exactly low porousity hair... Mine dries in like 30 minutes or less without a towel and braiding it to keep a bit of water in, I have high porousity.
@@daisiesandpandas1218 I would need to test the damp hair thing again to truly see what porosity i have but I think my hair was super dry because I have psoriasis (yellow flakes) on my scalp so I have been trying a head and shoulders 2 in 1 to try to fix that first and while it has removed some of the flake buildup I still have very dry hair and what looks like dead ends on even short hair.
Check out More Plates More Dates and his videos on how to reverse hairloss, probably one of the most comprehensive guides on the subject.
Love Derek’s channel
@@TravWhiteStyle I wish to say, your channel has really helped me discover ways to handle longer hairstyles and had a large part in me pursuing that goal in the first place. Thanks a lot!
- sincerely, a young man growing out his hair for the first time!
so jealous with your hair Trav 😬😍😍😍😍
What a great video and person.
Asmodeus is that you?(I hope someone gets my reference)😅 love your look though❤
Supernatural? 😂
@@shanwinchester3009 yeahh... Glad you got it... Doesn't he look like Asmodeus?😂❤️❤️
I was doubting about taking finasteride because I was afraid to lose my beard bc of some dht inhibition in my face or something, but seeing him, with that bushy beard, definately will give it a try.
While beard is dht based, most men won't experience their beards deteriorating.
In one NCBi issue ,,they stated that DHT's role when it comes to facial hair, it only helps at developing the beard where as thickness and texture of facial hairs are fully influenced by testosterone and plasma nutrition
Can someone tell me the most common hair loss symptoms that’s always start first cause I’m only 17 I think my hair is thinning on the side where my hair parting line is ar
I never had your hairline and thickness even at 16 or 17 yrs old Trav, but this guy Christopher I had that widows peak like that by 20. It will eventually go on him by 40.
im 17 and started losing hair a few months ago and idk what treatment to do or anything. i love my hair and im worried im gonna be bald before im even 20. im growin my hair out but im not confident that its gonna last long due to my hair loss
Dude same, but theres hope my friend
Minoxidil + Micro needling (derma rolling) + 1mg finasteride + Ketoconazole Shampoo
Apply 5% minoxidil once or twice a day, derma roll or use a derminator twice a week, make sure you space it out give your scalp some time to heal, take 1mg of oral finasteride everyday and in addition Use a ketoconazole shampoo which acts as a mild topical anti androgen. A pretty solid approach to stop diffused thinning and further hair loss, as well as potentially regrow hair in dead zones. But I havent stared this bc im still going thru puberty so once im around 20 I'll start
Update
updates bro? same situation i m in
Yeah jumping on treatments ASAP is the way to go. I managed to get onto finasteride some 8 years ago now and I am so happy I did. I recovered nearly all my hair and maintained everything I had. I doubt many people would guess that I was fighting hair loss. The majority of the battle is accepting that you're losing hair and taking the first step by trialing the treatments available. I always support videos like this and try to comment as they're likely the thing that might make someone take that leap.
Anywho, glad things worked out for Chris and thanks for sharing his experience.
Do you have to keep on taking finasteride for the rest of your life or can you stop eventually
@@hypnozgamingnl7166 Forever or until something better comes along. It doesn't worry me after so long. Even if one day I stopped taking it and embraced baldness. I'm really happy I had a full head of hair through my 20s and now 30s thanks to finasteride.
whats ur dosage? should I use dutasteride?
@@cinzley244 I just take 1mg a day. Has worked 8-9 years. Dutasteride I haven't taken so you should talk to your doctor about it. Personally unless your hairloss is super aggressive I would try Finasteride and make sure it agrees with you, then you can go from there.
@@EnchanetdSomething I’ve only been on it for less than a month now. Hairfall is still going how long do I have to wait for it to stop falling?
people don't shower everyday??
Good for you mate
I’m 38 and thought I was free from balding but 6 months ago I started to notice it receding. I don’t want to lose my hair but I’m not the kind of person to start popping pills that have side effects, ie any pharmaceutical products. I think I’ll just have to bite the bullet and get a transplant in 10 years or wait until there’s a natural and effective treatment. All I know is that balding sucks big time,
There will never be a natural treatment
Just take really low doses of Finasteride
You’re going to have to fin and minx lol plenty of hair transplant surgeons won’t even do the hair transplant unless you got on those otherwise the rest of your hair is going to keep falling out.
That´s is. Most surgeons prescribe finasteride + minox after transplant, to keep your hair, otherwise you will get hair at the front and be bald at the back, and have "doll hair".
@Andre If you then follow the treatment it will be fine, also if u go to a doctor with brain he wont put you a 12 year old hairline, so then when you get olde and gave up on treatment you won´t be that bad
