Buy Rogaine Foam in 3 month increments on Amazon because it is very expensive anywhere else. The Way-Mart here in Vegas doesn't carry it anymore because people were stealing it, and the same 3 can box at Target goes for $50. Don't buy the single can either because it's $25 on Amazon which is steep for how much you'll be using it. I runs something crazy at Target like $35 a can. The Pura D'Or shampoo has a lot of different options. I just bought this Pura D'Or shampoo and conditioner and really like it. I always work it in my hair and let it sit for a few minutes with both the shampoo and conditioner since they both block DHT. You also may want to start taking saw palmetto until you get the finesteride. It's a supplement that you can find at Wal Mart that blocks DHT as well, just not as well as finesteride. So to recap:

Step 1: take a pic of your hair the day you start so you can see the progress in pics.

Step 2: order Rogaine Foam from Amazon.

Step 3: order Pura D'Or from Amazon.

Step 4: order Saw Palmetto from Amazon.

Step 5: set up an appointment with local dermatologist, even out of pocket it should be $100 for the visit and about $100 a month for the pills.

Step 6: wash hair twice daily with Pura D'Or, use Rogaine to style your hair twice daily, take saw palmetto twice daily, and finesteride once daily. They all block DHT and help healthy hair grow.

Step 7: wash, rinse, and repeat and take pics every 3 months so you can help the next fellow thinning redditor in the future just like I've helped you.

Step 8: save up your cash, and hit me up for a discount on all MGM rooms here in Las Vegas to show off your thick mane to all the ladies here in Las Vegas that you've been nurturing for months.

Thank you for your thoughts. How does one use a derma roller? I have heard this before but I don't really understand how it works. I found one on amazon for $20, is this a good one?

Do I put something like rogaine on the derma roller prior to rolling?

I have traction alopecia from my topper clips (I have androgenetic alopecia) which I move every few months to try to combat. Mine haven't really grown in but my alopecia could be a culprit there, I have read of ladies regrowing hair when they get TA spots. I would recommend seeing a dermatologist - they should be able to tell you if it is indeed traction alopecia or an issue with vitamin/hormonal deficiencies. They also make powder fills you can use to help hide in the meantime. I use this one.

I use this dermastamp : https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Cosmetics-Tips-Stamp-Rejuvenation/dp/B07K2WLJTN/ref=sr_1_11_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1550592200&sr=8-11&keywords=dermastamp

And I still use minoxidil once a day (I never used it more than once a day)

You can buy a six month supply of minoxidil for $22 dollars from amazon, so cost isn’t that bad. Getting wet/sweating are probably things to avoid, but if you put it on right when you wake up, then again before going to bed, it shouldn’t be too big of a deal. The real inconvenient part for me is that it makes it kind of difficult to style the hair that I have left.
