antikkopmaJul 20, 2016
Im long haired boy 20 year old. When i saw first balding spots at temples, i went a doctor and take a minopecia(same as minoxidil). I was searching while taking it 1month then i learned its hard to keep hair long with minox and minox sheed hair then grow again which i didnt want grow long hair again. Maybe this is not true but i want to ask with photos did minox damage my hairline a little? I stop using 5 month ago after using 1month. The hairs on photos are losing or growing hairs after minox?
