@chica-I am just starting my second bottle and I have noticed significant growth in my crown area.

Places where my hair was thin or non existant is filling in! I take one vitamin a day.

I hope I get some significant growth in my crown area, because the hair up there is at least 2-3 inches shorter than the hair at my nape and sides. It just grows a lot slower in the crown area. I want it to catch up with the rest of my hair.

Thanks ladies I surely appreciate this. Because Chicha is having 1 h*ll of a time with this hair loss. I have the worst kind, the female version of male pattern baldness and it responds to very, very few things. There are sites like this, where the ENTIRE site is dedicated to that one form of hair loss (Androgenic alopecia its called).

I to have seen growth in my temple area where there was none. Nothing else and I mean nothing else made some hair in that area grow.

But I noticed only about 30% hair in one temple had say 40% growth in the other has growth. Although most of my temples still look sorta bald, I'm wanting to find something else that will grow the rest.

My other thinning and balding areas of my scalp are still that. Bald and shiny.

Im thinking of starting 2 a day to see if the other spots fill in.
 
oookaaaaaaaay. I must have mis-measured or something because pre-Nioxin my hair was 9 to 9 and 1/4 inches long depending on where I measured. Today and really just for fun I measured and am at 10. I measured in several spots to be sure. I have only been taking Nioxin (and 7500 dosage Biotin) since the 10th of this month...I take 2 a day but accidently took 4 one day (I forgot I had already taken it one day at work-wouldn't reccomend since that seems like overkill)

Anywhoo, unless these are some sort of miracle pills, I don't think my 'progress' is really 'progress.' I don't think it is humanly possible to grow hair that fast. I am going to measure next week though just in case. If I have more 'progress' next week and hit 11 inches y'all are going to think I work for this company lol... :yep::weird::orders::dance7::rocker:
 
I took nioxin vitamins shortly after I discovered LHCF. I took it regularly and as suggested. Man... I got the nastiest breakout ever. It was under my right cheek and the lower side of my face. And worse I got huge black spots from them.... it was a good area of three inches too. It was so bad, that I could see the black spots in the reflection of the window as I was getting into my car.

It was from that experience that I discovered that black people should use sunscreen. I credit sunscreen for eventually clearing that nightmare up.

Now I take a biotin and have had no problems with breakouts.

But man! Was that a nightmare! I have enough problems without having disgusting black marks and bumps on the side of my face! Geesh!

Kalia1 I'm really happy for you! There are so few things, really hardly nothing, that helps this condition. Many of my spots are still shiny.

Please pull back and part the hair to inspect. The areas that I thought were filling in is mostly hair that has grown OVER those balding spots. It has grown out shorter hair but that hair's longer strands are giving the impression that the thinning an balding areas were filling it.

Its growing what I have but not re-growing the areas that have fallen out (balding spots).
 
I take Nioxin off and on, but it never gave me supper fast growth. Once these bottles are up I don't think I'll buy more.

I wouldn't take 2 though as I take other a multi-vitamin and other herbals.

I do take Saw palmetto/pygeum (credit to chica on that suggestion)
B-complex
Nattokinase
Serrapeptase
Ionic Magnesium
Evening Primose Oil
Now Multivitamin

I also drink about 3-4 cups of hibiscus or hibiscus/burdock tea a day
 
chica-Yes I have been examining the spot on it's own. I also have my DD checking it too.
I understand what you mean by the other hair covering the spot. The hair appears to be growing from the outer rim of the spot towards the inner. Some small hairs are in the inner of the spot too! HTH
 
chicha

What saw palmetto do you use?? I have gone into the vitamin shop like five times confused as to which one to get!! I see there are some that saw Saw Palmetto Berries, and some say Saw Palmetto Berry extract is it all the same thing??

growinghealthyhair Honestly, the brand at walmart. They've even enhanced it with alot of other anti androgens like pyguem, beta sisterol, and other stuff.

I thought it wasn't working but when I removed it from my other internals and routine, my hair loss shot up.

So looks like alone it didn't do much for me. (for me. it may for you)

In combo with other stuff, it helped alot. I'm seeing that alot these days. The same with the ketoconazole hair shampool This is what I'm doing

ketoconazole hair shampoo 2% every 3 days.
MSM 750 mg (dropped dosage, but less hair loss at 2500 an 3000 mg)
Saw Palmetto 2 pills (all at once. This anti androgen in morn and this..)
Spiro 25 mg ( ...at night. I want to take as little as possible. This can be dangerous)

This reduced my hair shedding from almost 200 a day to 5 - hairs - a - day.
 
Day two of taking two pills a day. I hope I don't experience breakouts..... I'm doing at home chemical peels, I say five or six more pills and continuous retin-a and hydroquinone and I'll have great skin.... But I don't want a set back.... I can only try and stop as soon as I recognize irritation.....

Kalia1 Oh ok. That sounds GREAT! I'm over 2 mos taking 1 pill. I'll stay on board just because it makes the hair I do have longer. So, I'll keep you and the board updated. We must, to let each other know what works for our hair problem.

HijabiFlygirl Don't take that IF you don't have the dht/testosterone hair problem. And how do u know if you have it? Rule out other stuff. PM me I can tell you. But if you don't need it, it can increase estrogen in some which is usuallynot needed in child bearing people like us.

But in combo with other stuff I do see it was a help.

LOL they don't know how serious this hair stuff is! My SO laughs his butt off at me when I tell him I'm researching hair stuff or if he sees me mixing up a concoction. lol

I've been taking my Nioxin daily since I got them, its been a couple days shy of two weeks. I can't wait to start seeing some results.
