upset3

Sorry I did post my situation and photos on here before and I do appreciate all help and advice but as I said I just wanted to find out about lasers caps and peoples reviews and experiences of them especially as I said most clinics I have been to have one in their premises in one format or another

Seriously?now you are just being silly. I just want some honest feedback prior to considering purchasing one

Would you please clarify that? and I don't to upset anyone but by the same token going from my previous experience here other members noted that I was being bullied! I know things have changed since then but it stills pays to be careful.

The oral version I followed the instructions one I a day I think! its been a while

I hope you are not trying to recruit me into something? I am just currently inquiring about laser caps and peoples experiences especially as most hair clinics seem to use this technology in one format or another

Thanks for the repIy I am considering all options. I find Minoxx leaves my hair & scalp lank and greasy and saw no improvement and I have had side effects from Fin

Thanks for you input Melvin I do not disagree but it would be great to hear from people who have tried this

Well it has been a long time since I have posted on here and apart from Covid the last time I was here I felt quite hounded by an indian company trying to part me with my money regardless!! However I have decided to try again and one of the questions I have was regarding these Laser LED helmets I see advertised everywhere. Hair Growth Cap Hat Laser LED Anti-Hair Loss Hair Fast Regrowth Therapy. I have tried looking at reviews and youtube vids which are few but have not found any answers. So has anyone tried them? and did they help?

Thanks for the advice I think everyone should start at a local gp even if its only to get a check up and a referral

Finally got brave enough to take photos not sure how to post them but will try over the weekend. My head is is feeling tingly no idea why haven't used any minidoxil since before xmas an

I have read about laser combs but a lot of them seem to do nothing so if you have anymore info please let me know

Funnily having giving things some thought as I think I panicked a bit yesterday in my wants and ambitions but just the feeling of live bouncy hair would be a good start and not flat and horrid and stopping and regrowing my bold patch would be great. However having said that if I need to consider surgery so be it. I think you are right about talking to a Doctor first but I hate going to my local gp and trying to fit your one subject matter within a 30 second time frame and get all your questions answered I feel like on trial and irrelevant

Thank you for the excellent advice and guidance

My goals are to get my hair back via meds or applications or natural remedies. Will consider hair transplant as last resort but its cost and who is best etc. Too embarrassed to take photos. Yes I am using the Kirkland 5% liquid but not sure about foam or if I should be using a higher percentage. ts now 4 weeks since I stopped and my scalp is feeling a bit better and not so sore!!

Like most people who read this forum in secret I was not going to join but I feel we must all play a part and thank those who were brave enough not only to start this site but to all who participate. After using Kirkland 5% Minoxidil for 6 months now (once per day) I have noticed that I am getting small scabs on my scalp and it has turned bright pink and I am very worried. I am 53 years old I not noticed hair loss a few years back at the back which contributing to my high forehead has knocked my self esteem immensely. I first went to a clinic many years ago (mid 30’s) when I thought I would lose my hair a place in Birmingham but apart from the flannel and the infrared stuff they do I just felt like a paycheck and not one that I could afford so I lived with it.. Years later when I noticed I had lost a bit more I went to Boots who recommended their finerstride but I had some side effects and I stopped after about 8 months and no hair growth. 2 years ago my head scabbed over with funny looking white flecks presumably dead skin??? They all flaked off and I thought it was because of the shampoo products I was using. I noticed my hair loss was worse so I changed shampoos 2 years ago to none sls type (Jasons) and although my hair feels cleaner and I do not shred as much it always seems lifeless and limp (no body) In fact the latest Vitamin E version my hair seems to suck in like a vacuum!!! Last year I went to a clinic in Cardiff but apart from being cajoled into buying expensive shampoo which made no difference and contains sls I got another infrared treatment and told not to eat cheese!!! The last 6 months have seemed like hell the Minoxidil is unpleasant to use and my patch seems bigger and I cannot see any significant change in the mirror but sometimes when I rub my head I feel some sort of fuzz but not a lot and none that I can see that warrants notice and now my scalp is pink and sore Sometimes I feel my problems maybe insignificant compared to others but any advice would be really welcome
