Can relate to the hair growth thing, I've started to enter my "balding" era and I've been having a nervous breakdown. I never really cared about my looks before but the balding thing is really getting to me. Finasteride makes me depressed and minoxidil is so annoying, makes me feel less alone when I read a comment like yours, ha.
- csa 2y agoHighly recommend just shaving it all off. If that doesn’t work for whatever reason, then cutting it very short (a few mm) is the second best alternative. Trying to hide it is the worst. Stressing about it is a waste. I started shaving my head when I was about 25. I wish I had done it sooner. No haircuts, no hairstyling, no “bed hair”. I just shave my head when I shave my face, usually in the shower.
- busterarm 2y agoI lost all of my hair at 19 years old inside of about 3 high-stress months. From long hair to Stage 7 MPB. Too poor to medicate so I just had to deal with the new me. I don't even remember the experience of getting a haircut and what that's like. I encourage you to embrace it. Go skin bald. There's a lot of hidden benefits and really it's no big deal. All of the treatment options have huge downsides or look like shit.
