I'm posting three pictures here. One is of my progress from April 24th 2015-Today, June 23rd 2015. The other picture is of the worst my hair has ever been, long before treatment; roughly 1 year ago, when it was long as hell. (I will have my mane back!). I've been very ****ty about applying minoxidil and miss some finasteride pills here and there, but all that is changing. I've started working out and taking care of myself in hopes of combining a glorious mane with a body that I can be proud of. Any questions, just ask!

Started: .5mg finasteride EOD, 2ml 5% minoxidil EDish
Now: 1mg finasteride ED, 2ml 5% minoxidil ED

Oh yeah, and nizoral 1% once every 3 days.

More pictures on page 2!

Nice progress, gives me hope. My hair looks a lot like your middle pic right now so hopefully in a few more months my hairline will fill in like yours did. Congrats and keep up the good work :)

Do you use the liquid or foam minoxidil? And do you apply it all over the top of the head or only in certain areas? Great results bro

The first picture was just there to show how bad it got at one point. I've only been on treatment for about 3 months, give or take half a month. I don't know the exact date I started and the photo from April(second photo) is my first frontal shot, so it's my baseline. The time between the comparison pictures is almost exactly 2 months.

Liquid minoxidil. I apply the 2mls to my temples, forelock, and just behind forelock while tilting my head back so the minoxidil runs towards the crown.

I most certainly will! I have tiny black hairs growing in the pattern of a super solid nw1. God, I hope they grow.. They appeared about a month in. They are increasing in numbers, but length is moving super slow. I told myself if I can maintain, then I'll buy myself a hair transplant as a graduation present, at which time I'll be almost 30, I'm 27 now. However, I'll gladly save the money if regrowing it is in the cards.

minoxidil twice or once a day?
Just once a day.

Good result. I would be very happy with that after result, even if it doesn't improve any more, although it probably still will improve. It's a solid acceptable hairline. I am more like your middle picture with just a forelock left, but a little better in shape.

I'm definitely going to fill in whatever's left with a hair transplant. I don't expect full coverage from treatment and, honestly, didn't expect anything other than maintenance or slowing. We shall see what the future holds!

I'm adding some more pics. I found a few on my old phone from when I started, and I thought one was a good picture to reference for progress, so I snapped a comparison pic after applying my minoxidil. I took another picture today after my shower to show my current hair wet, combed to the side, and under the extreme lighting of my bathroom+the flash of my camera. I'm also including two pictures that show the progress of the tiny hairs that I hope are rebuilding my hairline to a nw1ish. Any questions, just ask!

Most people maintain their hair, maybe thicken up and regrow a little. Every now and then you see a miracle case where somebody regrows a crazy amount of hair. This is one of those cases. Absolutely incredible...

Thank you all so much for your kind words and encouragement. I'll be adding a second dose of minoxidil to my temple area in the mornings in hopes of accelerating the growth of those tiny hairs. I'll keep you all updated monthly!
