Hello! New guy to the forum.
I am 27 and have noticed my hair thinning for the past 3 years. It is mainly on the crown of my head. I have not seen a dermatologist. I have different thickening shampoos, systems, topicals but nothing has really worked to regrow any hair. I used to always use gel or paste to style my hair but I stopped because it would emphasizes the hair loss. I am have been using the Clinicure Cleanse, Nurish, and Treat system (http://www.joico.com/products/Haircare/clinicure) and Kirkland Signiture 5% Minoxidil for close to a year. I stopped using the 3rd step of the Clinicure system because it would cause my scalp to break out and because I was using the minoxidil. I also cut down my minoxidil from twice a day (morning and evening) to once a day (evenings) because it was a mess to style my hair with it in. What are your thoughts? What other steps should I take to regrow some hair? I don't like the idea of having to take pills for the rest of my life and don't really want to explore hair transplants yet.
