Attached are my updated photos for 6 months. I cut my hair pretty short. Shorter than I've had it in a long time! And I love it. Things have slowly but surely gotten better.

Small thin hairs are appearing in the front - i think these are the nape hairs.

My right side is still a little thin but I can see it starting to fill in some more.

Most of these photos are outside when its overcast. Hair looks good in these conditions.

One photo is in harsh light and I didn't wash my hair that day, which tends to make it look worse. its my right temple that looks think. It looks bad but I wanted to include it so you had a fair view of everything. The right side, above the ear, is still thin and I hope this will eventually fill in. But frankly, I'm very very happy with where I'm at.

Looking good; don't look to have an ounce of hairloss in most of the pics. Total coverage. Still so early, too, so any density issues could assuredly get cleared up in the coming months. It's only 6months, so this could very well change in the future, but how would you say the density is and your styling options at the present?

Than -

I'm styling my hair pretty much how I want it. The new hair sticks up a little bit. But I like the hair styled back with gel (which is how I'm wearing it).

The density on the left is amazing. I can't tell any difference between my ht hair and my old hair. The hair on the right behind the hairline is still a little thin, but I am noticing new hairs, which I didn't see last month.

I feel like things are moving along nicely. I still have a day or two where I wonder if its still growing, but that was mainly last month. I've been feeling pretty good over the last few weeks - so good that I havne't been on the board as much as I could be.

I'd still like some thickening and a little more growth on the right but overall I'm very pleased with the cosmetic improvement.

Abe

Hey Guys,

I added some better pics of the hairline and the right side, so you can see what I mean when I say its a little bit thinner. And hopefully see why I'm happy with the hairline.

hdude - not everyone who loses their frontal 3rd loses everything. I have no loss on the crown at all and I've been on propecia for years. My loss has been stabilized and i feel confident I won't lose much more. But sure, its a risk.
