balding

Hey, I am 21 and have a very serious hairline issue. I have no bald spots on the back, it's pretty thick everywhere but the front where it's receding... And it's moving quick. I've tried hair thickening shampoos, they kinda help. Any suggestions other than rogain, nioxin, etc..? Perhaps vitamins or natural herbs? Thanks.

HEllo im young like you and also have a serious receding hairline. I DID nioxin for about a year and find it didnt do anything. Right now im seeing a hair specialist and they are testing my hair to see what treatment would be best. IM kinda sketchy about it but i can fill you in on what they say. ITs really hard i was thinking of trying to keep the hair i have and getting some implants as well.

Re: balding

Go to the dermatologist and see if you should use Rogaine. It works like a miracle for me, a woman. THICK hair again after 4 months. Go to a skin doctor for sure.

I THOUGht rogain was for people who are already bald and it just grows some fuzz for you so you dont look bald? i didnt know it was for thinning hair also!
