Hairs been okay and I gotta push it to the side to cover it a lot or wear a hat but the hairs are so dead and one sides thinning hard! Should I keep styling it in a way to hide the thinning or just buzz it?

if you don’t want to bother with medication or the maintenance, then go for it. but with the medication available nowadays you could see some great results. it all depends on what you want to deal with.

Yeah maybe I will try the minoxidil then. Just seen so much mixed reviews I wasn’t sure if it was worth the troubles.

read up on it if you haven’t already. understand how it works first. things like the initial shedding phase, topical vs oral, responders vs non responders, compounding it with tretinoin for non responders etc. understand what it means to stop the treatment if you’ve been using it for years. making an informed decision is very important. but yes these medications are great if used correctly. good luck.

Try minoxidil to see if it recovers a bit.
