RE: Hair loss treatment

[Kenpo Machine]

Pretty Boy status expired due to hairloss
Hello everyone, I wanted to start out talking about a little about myself and the history I had so far with hairloss and the treatments Ive taken. I just turned 24 years old a few weeks ago  but still experiencing hairloss 

Let me tell you about myself......
Age of 21, full of hair, I always had long hair and had used hair products to make my head look like a giant helmet. I love volumized hair. People would call me Goku from Dragonball Z because my hair was always stick up and it had so much volume. I usually spend from 30mins to 1.5 hours on my hair trying to make it look good (I will upload pictures later). The time is recorded from blow drying to the end of hairspray time. I would use 3 mirrors to style my hair. People knew me for my passion and love for my hair. I was high maintenance and had always carried a can of hairspray where ever I went. Everywhere I would go, I would always get compliment about my hair and how its pretty, how much volume it has, and how cool it was. The ladies had labeled me as the "pretty boy" and my mom thought I was a player. I would admit, getting girls WASNT a problem for me. I made it look easy. I was confident because of my hair. Sadly, this confident slowly went away.

I still remember that day, 3 years ago, when I noticed my hair was falling out. It was getting close to exam week (sophomore in college) and I was consuming lots of coffee and 5hr energy drinks. I stepped into the shower and BAM! Hair was falling like a tree in fall season. I was sure it was over 100 hair that was lost. I was shocked and couldnt believe my eyes. I thought it was stress related and from the high consumption of caffeine. So I didnt worry about it too much. As the days passed by, my hair density was going down and my tub was always filled with hair. Then I asked myself "Am I going thru hair lost?!" At first I was in denial and became desperate. After 3 months into hairloss, my gf had noticed lots of hair shed in the bathroom and saw a bald spot appearing on the vortex of my head. It was like a quarter size. So I went out (after doing massive research on hairloss) to get Rogaine topical foam. I used it as directed but it got in the way of styling my hair. It made my hair look shiny. So I took an alternate route and got propecia 1mg/day. I didnt have insurance and still dont so I was paying $80/month for 30 pills. However, THIS LITERALLY SAVED MY HAIR AND REGREW IT THICKER after a year or so taking it (I have pictures and will upload later).

Here were the side effect of propecia I had experienced:
Right testes pain
Slight sadness
Anxiety
50% strength loss in erection and hard to ejaculate
slight weight gain

I took propecia for 16 months and it worked. I had so much hair (pictures will be uploaded later) but was still losing hair. Propecia had slowed down my hair lost and regrew the hair into thicker stronger hair. I would lose about 45-60 pieces of hair everyday in the shower and 10-15 hair when I style it. I also blow dry my hair so I would lose 15 more hair But I have noticed that the hair I would lose were thinner hair than the thicker hair so I was fine with that.

What really struck me was my performance in bed  I was having so much trouble trying to keep my wood hard that sex was basically like a workout I wasnt happy and im sure the girl wasnt too  So I tried to take the propecia 23 hours ahead of time I knew I was going to get it on ....keyword "tried"....... Then I asked myself it it worth the $$, keep the hair I have and have bad sex or should I save $$, deal with hairloss, but have GREAT sex?  I said to myself I dont need to have sex everyday. So I kept taking the pill.

I did stop taking propecia for 3 months and LOST lot of hair during that period (Worst decision ever) but my sex life was improved dramatically. So I got back on the propecia. I love my hair and want to keep all of it that I can. To this day, I am still losing hair (50-70/hair in shower). I wake up every morning and look at my pillow to see how much hair I lost while sleeping. To this day, I still check my shower drain to see how much hair Ive lost showering. To this day, I am still taking propecia. But I just started this new treatment called Nuhair 30 day kit 4 pills a day with meal and Ive started for only a month. It said it will take 3-4 months to see results and I want to know what is your opinion about Nuhair hair lost treatment  It has DHT blocker pills and hair regrowth pills.

Why I picked propecia and Nuhair as a combination? I have a B.S in Biology and kinda know how the body works. Because hair loss is caused by a by-product of testosterone (DHT), propecia is a competitive inhibitor that prevents DHT from binding to the hair follicle. Propecia is only a DHT blocker, and its effective  Nuhair has hair growth and DHT blocker too. So to me, these two treatments in combination are effective to help against hairloss.

NOTE After I took Nuhair, my side effects that I was experiencing from propecia went away! I remember before I was taking Nuhair, my gf would joke around saying I have a broken dick, which I kinda did. Because usually if she grabbed it or touch it, my dick would be on full blast. But it wasnt on full blast and she had questioned me if I had turned gay  (btw, this is a new gf Ive been dating for 4 months now) This is funny but sad, she had woken up in the middle of the night and had the urge to "do it" but she tried her best to get it up and nothing happened. So she quit trying to make it hard and went back to sleep. Since taking Nuhair, I dont have this problem anymore. Im not sure why, and is questioning if Nuhair is canceling out propecia or are they working together so well that the negative effects of propecia has went away?

Here is just a brief guide of my hairloss experiences and treatments I took for that time:

Age 21: May 2009 to Aug 2009 (Rogaine foam @night)
Still losing +100 hair/shower

Age 21-23: August 2009 - March 2011 (Propecia 1/mg day)
Losing 45-60 hair/shower
Seen thicker hair grow in
Improvements on the vortex of my head
I will upload pictures later

Age 23 March to May 2011 Discontinued the use of Propecia
60-80 hair lost/shower
LOST the hair I grew when I was on Propecia
Hair thinning
Receding hairline
more exposure of vortex

Age 23-24 May 2011 - present (Propecia 1mg/day + Nuhair DHT/Hair regrowth)
50-70 hair lost/shower
Hair has grown back thicker on hairline and vortex
Lost negative effects of Propecia due to Nuhair? 


I still do my hair but it isnt as good as it was 2 years ago. It usually had taken me 50 mins avg to do my hair. Now it only takes me 20-30mins. Hairloss has been a burden to me and has depleted my confidence as the time went by. I am so sensitive about my hair and a little one cry inside of me when I am able to comb my hair softly and a piece of hair falls out. I always say,"Its okay, because I know a thicker, stronger hair will grow in your place  " *Fingers crossed*

So my plan is to test out Nuhair and its effectiveness for the next 3-4 months in combination with Propecia.

Comments/Questions.....Feel free to ask! I am very open! 

(By the way, I have no affiliation with Nuhair or Propecia. I am a college student who is broke and just want to get my story out. I want to help people dealing with this hairloss. Just telling you what has worked out for me.)

I am close to 60 and I have fantastic hair. If I was going bald with the wrap around hair I would say fuck it and shave it all off or get a hair transplant.

Something smell on Analbolichalo in this topic .................

Propecia has many side effects. The doctors say it barely effects anyone but it's bullshit. Transplants work sure it won't stop what's going but that's life right now unless they make it possible to clone hairs.

Just imagine this poor balding sap whining like a girl about going bald. Piss off.

Picking the 0.0034% outliers who look good with no hair doesnt really back up your argument.People view the face subconciously in 3rds, losing hair throws this off as your top 3rd becomes too large.

1.) this dude has a fucked up head shape, that is why he can't shave it.
2.) He is $$$, so hair doesn't matter.

Sometimes a client will mention to me that his hair is thinning. Right away I them on
1. Propecia
2. Rogaine
3. Nizoral shampoo.

Sometimes for whatever reason these medications aren't going to work and I have to put the client on a more natural hair loss program,  and it can be a little tricky. Several ways to go there but I always put it together.

Not sure what crap you sell, but if finesteride doesn't work you put them on the stronger dusteride.

Please stop engaging the OP as if he is legit and maybe he will go away.

i don't "sell" anything. I simply provide expertise when warranted. Some men don't want the chemical castration that comes with fin. Some don't want the rapid facial aging caused by minox. For these men, depending on where they are at on the Norwood scale, I may put them on the NuHair system. I may substitute a saw palmetto preparation for the fin. Perhaps Spiro cream for the minox. So maybe we're talking 85% effectiveness with these alternatives but without the side effects.

Doesn't know shit about training, but sure knows a lot about hair-loss-panic snake-oil. A much clearer pic of the OP is starting to take focus.

Haha - the Jason Statham innuendo is getting paranormal.
He has a good face, is fit and therefore having lost his hair is not important - same with  Bruce Willis when he was fresh.

The shadow of the toupee... looming on the horizon.

Getbig taught me 2 things.
1. Guys with hair are more paranoid and obsess over hairloss more than guys that are bald/balding.
2. Tall guys care more and are more obsessed with height than shorter people.

And quite understandably so - it's bargain superiority if you have nothing else.
On the other hand having hair and being over 4'11" is indeed a plus in this gruesome world.

I don't believe in scrambling around like an insecure phaggott when your hair starts to fall out.  It happens to almost every guy at some point.  Let it be what it is.  Why hemorrhage money and sacrifice your ability to get a hard-on just to hang on to a few thin-ass hairs on your head.  Be a boss, shave your head and say who gives a fuck.  Control what you can control, don't be a bitch.  You are fighting a losing battle anyway.

40 dolllars a year for a 1 a day pill that keeps your hair and only 2% get sides, im failing to see the downside? Is it also a hassle to brush your teeth for a couple of minutes a day to keep your teeth? spray deodorant to stop you smelling?

Same here and I know it's mostly genetics , so I'm not proud or bragging.
I'm happy I didn't go bald but don't think it was any achievement on my part.
I feel blessed for my positive traits and do my best to deal with the negative ones.

That's life and you march on as best you can.
