This is my first post on here, and hopefully my last! I just wanted to share my success with everyone out there in hopes that it may help you.
First, I should give you a brief history. I started losing my hair when I was 20 years old (I'm 26 now). It started out with severe shedding all over. Then, my hairline started to recede and shedding continued. I've tried a countless number of things over the years to try and stop/reverse my hair loss. Some worked for a bit, others didn't work well at all (propecia).
Over the past year, I've made a lot of progress in reversing my hair loss. I'd like to share my regimen (I hate that word) that I have been using.
Regrowth Stimulants
- Shen Min Advanced Formula for Men (2 pills/day)
- Rogain 5% Extra Strength (1-2 applications/day)
Shampoo:
- Nizoral Shampoo (I use this every other day)
- Herbal Essences Normal to Oily Hair Purifying Shampoo
- Loreal Vive Regenium X-Y Thickening Shampoo
Other:
- Cut my hair every week.
- Working out at least two times a week. Cardio, and weights.[/list]
Some notes on the above regimen:
When applying the Rogain, I apply to the entire scalp. Even though it says it's not for receding hairlines - I also apply it liberally to the hairline and massage it in. I have seen noticeable results from this. I only do it at night, as I don't want that guck in my hair when I go to work. If I'm not going out in the evening I'll apply it when I get home from work, then again before I go to bed.
The Shen Min (which smells like something off a farm) has helped make my hair grow faster. Never before would I be able to cut my hair once every week. It grows much faster now, and is much thicker than before. I also believe cutting it every week helps stimulate the hair growth.
I really hope this will help someone out there. I had a really tough time dealing with my hair loss, and know how devastating it can be. Whether this works for your or not, just remember not to give up... as there's a solution out there for you, you just have to find it.
All the best, and good luck!
