I've been using propecia in six months now and begin to see increase in hair.
I did use propecia at an earlier stage for a year but without any visible results.
However i read something about how the the single hair share the same hole as the place where tallow is produced. I had ad the time the same experience as many have that my hair seemed to get very greasy after only one or two days without hairwash with shampoo. Then I read an interview with a girl who had the same problem till she stopped using shampoo. For the the first month your hair offcourse gets greasy but then the tallow production fades out. And after the first 3-4 weeks you produce so little grease that you can just use wash it with water everyday and NO shampoo and your hair will seem completly clean.
The reason I mention this is that surprised no one ever thought about the connection between grease production use of cemicals like in shampoo, and the hairstraws ability to grow.
I think that one should use propecia to reduce the production of the enzym that causes the hair to stop growing AND stop using shampoo witch causes the production of tallow that reduces the hairs path into the open.

The only reason for using Shampoo is that it helps putting money in the producers pocket.

Why not stop using soap when showering and washing your hands?

I'm somewhere in the middle of the issue, thinking shampooing your hair is good periodically, but not every day. I personally have been washing my hair every third day my entire life.

I believe replenishing natural hair oils is just as important as maintaining them. Otherwise, I just don't think it's possible to clean your hair effectively with just plain water.

"Why not stop using soap when showering and washing your hands?"

Well I dont know, but I presume hairlos is hardly a problem on your hands? And I dont presume you use your head when you prepare food.

The method of not using shampoo on your hair, requires two daily showers with a very carefull rinsing of the hair and scalp. This will ensure that your hair is perfectly clean and your scalp stays healthy. Offcourse some are able to endure shampoo, some are not.

Also eat lots of vegetables and exercise.

I doubt shampooing exacerbates hairloss...unless you're using something that attacks and miniturizes the follicle, and I'm not sure what that would be.

Hair that's loose enough to fall out during shampooing, in addition to the normal quantity that everyone sheds daily, is going to fall out anyway. Maybe not at that exact second, but soon enough. The act of not shampooing does not extend the anagen phase nor deter the miniturization process.

I don't dispute your decision, because it's not a harmful one. I think you're kidding yourself, though, if you believe it a retention strategy.

I agree with your exercise and vegetable assessment as a factor in general health!

Well perhaps I should explain more thoroughly what I do:
1)Because of the argument that DHT is harmfull for the growth of the single hair I take Propecia 1. Mg every day
2)Because incresed tallow production - going through the same tube as the hairstraw - could narrow the hairstraws ability come out into the open(less space) I dont use shampoo which supports the production of tallow. After 4 weeks - and this is a fact anyone could test - you produce very little tallow from your scalp and the dust that naturally gets into your hair during the day can be easily rinsed away with lukewarm water. The reason no one has proven the connection between hairloss and tallow and use of shampoo, I think is that every investigation has compared less use with shampoo with reguarly or dayly use of shampoo. I think a real investigation of the idea should compare a person who doesnt use shampoo with one who does.
3.Because stress and anxiety is known to cause hairloss, I try to practise certain relaxation technics, and walk a lot, and take care of my sleep.
4.Because Food with vegetables and protein might increase the possibillity of good health, I eat lots of vegetables and some meat.

I don't think number 2 is a major factor but maybe it is contributing for some people to increase their hairloss.
