Does FOAM even work?

[MSFB]

yeah there are some small white hairs on the temples but i think they could have been there before.

also my can seems to be lasting a very lng time, ive been using half a cap each time, if not more. but its still going...

Take pictures for before and after comparisons so you can see the real difference.

ive got a couple of pictures on a thread somewhere, but i dont have a digital camera, only a webcam which doesnt produce very reliable pictures.

Hi everyone, I’m new here and this is my first post.

My experience so far, I started using Foam and Spectral DNC (but mostly I’ve been on the foam) about 2 weeks ago.
So far the shedding did not stop BUT I did start to grow new hairs, I’ve only noticed about 5-6 so far but I’m sure there’s more hidden with my normal hair.
When I run my fingers over where my hairline used to be I can feel the new hairs sticking up but there not visible to the eye yet.

So foam is working for me.

i was on finasteride for 5+ yrs.. VERY bad sides became of it.. i stayed with it to tolerate it, but now i want out completly.

just something about changing ur hormones to go against what nature intented doesnt seem like it will work in long haul...

but i hope foam + nizoral 1% will be a success...

but dude....aren't you kind of contradicting yourself? even by using rogaine youre going against what nature intended and that is to go bald

no im not contradicting... propecia messes with hormones and makes your grow breasts.. thats not what nature intended for a male. thats my point. if you control hair loss from your crown, its not changing hormones.. lets not get off track here..

I have been using the liquid for 2 1/2 years and just started foam. I like that it is easier to apply and also how it makes your hair feel thicker.

Foam is great, but the big3 is really a strong combo.

Yep, I've seen some results after 2 weeks.
At first I thought maybe I was wrong so I had my wife take a look and she also confirmed that there is some new growth.
all the new hairs I've noticed are right on the hairline above my temples, I haven’t had hair there in about a year so there’s little doubt its from the foam.

But right now there so light that you can’t really notice them, hopefully they'll get darker.

that's great! with me, in the first 2-3 weeks I think my hair got a bit thinner from shedding, but since then it's come back with a vengeance. I'm starting to get greedy based on the results of the foam. I just added Nizoral 1% about 2 weeks ago, and I'm considering getting on finasteride, but i'm just going to wait for my 2 year checkup (post-cancer) and ask my docs if they think it's a problem.

like other hair loss treatments, foam takes a long time to work. In order to grow healthy normal looking hair, your hair needs to go through several growth cycles, you will see any difference in 2 weeks... well unless your a super responder to minoxidil lol

I’m on my 4th week now, no new hairs beyond the initial growth spurt.
All the new hairs I did get are about 1/4 an inch long now but there are not enough of them to make any impact.
One thing I found odd is that almost all the new growth was only on one side; incidentally that side already had considerably more hair so now I have one bald side and one slightly thin side.
One thing I did notice is that the shedding as almost stopped completely where I apply the foam so I’m hoping to see some more growth soon.
