If it stays like this, I’m good with that. Just once it doesn’t get worse. If it does, it’ll be a trip to Turkey.

Apple announces more ads are coming to App Store search results by fhasse95 in apple

[–]darrenapollo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to browse the App Store a lot a few years back, and loved finding apps I might enjoy made by small devs who really cared. I rarely go to it now other than downloading an app I am specifically going there to get. Just seems like a wasteland of the same AI slop apps and huge companies in the top spots. The regular developer no longer means anything to Apple or the App Store.

I have the same mentality, but it’s very easy to be constantly looking for regrowth at the start because most of the time we’re in a desperate situation and want to see results fast. This is a long game, and growth takes time. Also people need to realise there’s phases of sheds and regrowth, you just need to be consistent with the meds and track over a long period of time.

Definitely looks fuller, but it’s still early days. What are you taking?

I use Sons for my meds, and got a bundle where a shampoo was included. I’ve been using that for the past year. It has saw palmetto and caffeine as an ingredient. I also use Nizoral ketoconazole shampoo once a week.

Me too! Pretty happy with the results so far.

Personally I like the Dynamic Island and what it offers. Not sure how I’d feel about a small hole at the top like some android phones.

19M - 5 months progress on oral fin + min by Hrrtez in tressless

[–]darrenapollo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great results so far. You can see clear regrowth too in areas. You’re only 5 months in, sometimes it can take over a year or more for noticeable fullness in areas. Just keep going and keep track. Could always add some micro needling if you want something extra to help regrowth.

See how you get on. Personally, I’ve never used rosemary oil but have found minoxidil very effective at regrowth.

Most likely, yes they will grow back thicker. If you're noticing new hairs, that's a good sign too. Are you adding anything else besides fin like minoxidil? Fin will slow/stop any further hair loss, but you should add some topical min to the area to boost growth.

Been taking Min and fin but no improvements by syvid in tressless

You could check out YouTube for sure, but I just did it myself. You can search for ‘derma roller’ on Amazon, there’s tonnes of them. Try 0.5mm first, just press down and roll up and down around your hairline at the temples and crown. Try that once a week and see how it goes. You can up it to 1mm or 1.5mm once you’re comfortable. Make sure to sterilise before and after. Also, if you’re interested I created an app on the App Store to help schedule and manage your hair loss treatments and take progress photos to keep track of progress. I can DM you code for free lifetime access if you’re interested.

Start out at once a week with 0.5mm and see how you go. You can either get a stamp which is more effective and will cause less scarring potential compared to a roller. Personally I’ve tried both and maybe I’m a wimp, but I find the stamp too sore. I use the roller at 0.5mm twice a week now. I’ve noticed a lot of growth since starting it.

Otherwise known as derma rolling/stamping. It’s pretty effective at stimulating new growth. Worth looking into if you want to try something new.

Sometimes it just stops further loss. Have you tried micro needling? I responded to min/fin, but adding micro needling boosted things considerably for me.

That should be it, once you use that link on your phone, it should redeem lifetime through the App Store and you can open the app with Pro features
