    chemically alters hair pigment for long-lasting color

    Permanent Hair Dye, also known as Permanent Hair Color, is a type of hair coloring product that chemically alters the natural pigment of the hair. It typically contains ammonia and peroxide, which open the hair cuticle and allow the color to penetrate deeply into the hair shaft, resulting in long-lasting color that can cover gray hair effectively. This type of dye does not wash out and generally requires new growth to be touched up.

      community Finasteride, minoxidil and pyrilutamide

      in Progress Pictures  79 upvotes 2 years ago
      The user tried minoxidil 5% for 3 years with little improvement, then switched to a 15% minoxidil with 0.1% finasteride solution once daily and started using pyrilutamide, resulting in significant hair regrowth over time. They are considering a hair transplant but are continuing with topical treatments to maximize hair growth first.

      The user has been on finasteride for over a year and switched from topical to oral minoxidil five months ago, but is unsure if the current shedding and small hairs are signs of improvement or worsening. They are seeking advice on whether to wait longer or switch treatments.

      community Why don't Minoxidil regenerated hairs become terminal on the head?

      in Minoxidil  101 upvotes 11 months ago
      Minoxidil helps hair growth by increasing blood flow and prolonging the growth phase, but it doesn't address the root cause of hair loss, such as DHT sensitivity. Finasteride can help maintain some gains by blocking DHT, but stopping Minoxidil often leads to hair loss because the new hairs are dependent on it.
