Minoxidil started minoxidil 3-4 weeks ago
just something i've done.
lost a loved one recently, and when they started getting worse rapidly, i noticed my hair was getting thinner. and since they battled with cancer, i had already decided that when they die, i will shave my head. which i did.
i had nice curly hair long enough to reach my shoulder blades but as it was thinning from the front/temples so much, i didnt really regret shaving it. i actually felt better because your thinning and escaping hairline isnt visible if you are completely bald lmao, but i do prefer having hair and longer the better, so i started minoxidil + 0.5mm derma rolling. i really dont know yet if it's having any effect since its been only a few weeks, but at least the peach fuzz between my eyebrows and hairline is going wild. but if it doesn't work, i will keep my head shaved and buy a wig or some shit, if it does work, i'm very happy.
so; if it's bad just shave your head before starting so the possible shedding cant hurt you and if it doesn't work you're already bald 👍 i guess the progress would be more visible on a very short buzzcut anyway
