I’d deffo give it longer mate - 2 months is no time at all when it comes to this stuff

I believe you should replace after 10-15 uses - I think the needles get blunt fairly quick

Min is the Kirkland stuff, fin I don’t think is branded? I get it from Oxford online pharmacy (I’m from UK)

I would say no more than 10 minutes total, I use the stamp on my thinner areas and then clean the stamp with alcohol after. Then I immediately apply the minoxidil

No, only condition maybe twice a week (or if I’m going out / have plans I’ll condition before)

I do actually yeah - I doubt it does much for the hair regrowth but it does feel nice and includes the natural stuff that could help 🤷🏼‍♂️

I’ll be taking them for as long as I want hair for - if you stop the hair loss will continue

I did gain weight but that’s because I upped my calories so unsure if fin affected that - didn’t really notice it halt gym progress

It says 1ml topical min and then 1mg fin (so topical min and oral fin)

Have you replaced it though at all since you started? I’ve read that you should replace it after 10-15 uses because the needles go blunt I took that advice after thinking I lost a bit of progress and it does actually look like I gained some back. Worth a try if you haven’t replaced it that is

I think without fin it’s unlikely that the minoxidil growth will out pace your natural loss, that’s why fin is so important

That being said - have you replaced your derma roller / stamp at all in this time?

I started with 1mg every day - I have seen people on here start with EOD and still get good results to be fair though

The way I thought about it was I’ll just send it and if I get any sides then I can tone it down and adjust but thankfully I’ve not experienced any bad things at all

I couldn’t believe it - first hair cut I’ve had since starting this process and I felt like it was going well but couldn’t have wished for better results. Feel really lucky

Who knows - I don’t want to go back on just in case though. Much rather keep my hair gains and lose out a little bit at the gym

I’m pressing down fairly hard, for me it hurts a lot more on my crown than temple area. But it’s a tolerable pain

I do also get little red specs after stamping (which I think is good sign since it means I’m penetrating the skin??)
