My hair is the same length. I always buzz cut it myself with the same #6 spacer (3/4 ") on top and take a picture within a day or two.
It is definately thicker in the temple and crown, but the crown progress isn't as pronounced.
The other thing I noticed is how the hairs around the thinning areas are responding. My hair used to look flat in front and now it always has more body.
It seems like the results are seldom dramatic with this type of thing but I am happy to have some reversal and thickening. I have been using Finasteride and lower concentrations of Minoxidil for years and never gotten any thickening, just slowing of the thinning.
Yes, I am still on Oral Finasteride.
Best Regards
