    Thank you so much! I managed to restore it from peri menopausal hair loss and stress-related alopecia, so now I want to show it off. It was far from fabulous a couple of years ago.

      How did you do that? I’m a guy in my 40s with long hair and it’s thinning a bit and also quite frustrating to deal with.

        I got minoxidil in pill form through hers.com. I tried Nutrafol for like 2 years before that and I don’t think it made a huge difference. I also tried topical minoxidil, and it was such a pain, I ended up not doing it twice a day like you are supposed to.

          I’m so glad it worked for you. Your hair really is quite stunning!

          I think I may end up just chopping my hair off!

              Thanks! I do really love the feeling of running my hands through my hair after it’s been washed and conditioned. It just bothers me so much with how it turns greasy within about 24 hours of washing it.

                Mine sort of does too, I just started washing it more often and using the least amount of dry shampoo I can between washes.

                  Okay wow! I’ve never heard of dry shampoo before! Thanks for letting me know that such a thing exists!

                    It’s a life saver honestly. It comes in regular uncolored varieties and then you can also get one made specifically for blondes or brunettes. It’s basically just baking soda-like stuff being sprayed in your hair to absorb the oil. I use the Batista brand, but there are tons to choose from.

                    Enjoy your new fabulous ungreasy hair!
