@@ari_a2764 Mate, my family think I am actually mental because I've started taking finasteride, I have been thinning for 2 years but it isn't noticeable to full heads yet.
@@haircafekevin hi Kevin. I am from India. I am 25(going to be 26 in few months). I am in love the early stages of baldness and with doctor's prescription,, i have started using minoxidil and finaseride tablets!! How effective it is? Can I use minoxidil without finaseride? Is it true that if I stop using them, I will return back to my normal state?? My doctor never told me about it being a life long treatment?? Please help me!!! Looking forward to your reply!! Thanks 👍
Dude, I really don't want to turn this into an end term paper so I'll be brief. In the sea of alpha males, bald cafes, hair loss gurus and all the other goofs it's really refreshing to find a down to earth guy that just lays down his experiences, tips and plain facts. Your standpoint towards "just shave it, bro" is absolutely what I've been feeling ever since I got concerned with hair loss. So far, after 5 years I've got some recession in the temple area and I think that within 2-3 years I'll have to jump aboard the finasteride boat. I don't give a shit about how people perceive me, what I get or don't get whether I am or am not bald. However, I do give a shit about what I like and what I want and that is having a choice of either growing my hair out or cutting it. I used to shave my head completely bald in my mid teens, however even then my hairline was still visible and somewhat framed my face. I think the impact balding has on young men's life is utterly trivialized and is causing more damage than good. That whole self-esteem movement that just tells you to lay down your arms, give up and accept this new shitty condition contradicts the follow your dreams attitude that is so prevalent in the Western culture. If you do like the bald look and balding doesn't concern you at all then more power to you, but belittling guys that continue the fight is one fucked up behavior that I hope will vanish over the next decade or so.
I watched Bald Cafe and it's sad that a lot of guys who've had only a little bit of hair loss (Norwood 2-3) decided to just shave it instead of treating it. That's pathetic.
The Shadow knows. Just turned 36, going to the doc soon to start fin. Have a bit of noticeable thinning, especially on my crown. Trying to turn that around. Also trying to avoid minoxidil. Thanks for all this info dude.
You are a time machine , WHY ? On a lot of topics and situations im saying ''If there was a time machine, I would go 3-10 years to the past and change my mind by punching myself on the face'' But you sir is me from the future and waking me up . You are a GOD.
I honestly don’t know how in the world this video only has 3k views!! It blows my fucking mind, you are a GOD when it comes to hairloss man. A fucking guru who knows the in’s and out’s of hairloss. I’ve been fighting this for 5 years now doing years of research and I can honestly say, everything you talk about is legit. Keep up the great work !
I remember when the doctor prescribed me finasteride, when I found out about the effects I thought the doctor was crazy. I went to a second specialist who told me not to take finasteride but minoxidil. Now I take finasteride anyway and am doomed to minoxidil... Now I know that the first doctor knew what he is doing.
Hey man... I just want to say i appreciate your work so much, you aren‘t like those payed doctors on youtube. You just tell us the logical facts and you even prove us how and why. It may be bad to have thinning hair, but hey I‘m happy that I have been born in the same generation as you, because you are one angel providing us in need. It may sound crazy but loosing hair is for many a nightmare
Good list! I think micro pigmentation is stupid too. Another thing people don't realize is that in most cases you need more than one hair transplant. It is almost impossible to get full density in a completely bald patch like the temporal region and hairline in one hair transplant treatment. Only so many hairs can be placed per cm to have a high success rate. I am going to be getting a second hair transplant in a few months to make the front hairline more dense. Also a lot of time lighting is very deceiving in videos or pictures that you see of a hair transplant results. Mine will look good in a lot of lighting but when a light shines right on it it looks like crap!
Honestly man, you're so well informed and helpful to hair loss community and this low key video is such a beautiful thing. Your so engaging. Love the other videos too BTW but this is a nice change when you feel it.
I started losing hair in my late teens, hairline didn’t really recede and my crown didn’t really get bald but just the thickness of my hair got really bad. I always thought it was due to a reason other than male pattern baldness. But I started taking 1mg finasteride so I’ll see how that works. Great vid!
Your videos are brilliant. I'm in my early 50s with a lightly receding hairloss but even at my age don't to go bald so I take fanasteride and minoxidil. Great work buddy.
Thanks Mann! Your videos have given me the courage to finally take finasteride! I still have most of my hair but noticed recent hairline change. I just took my first dose .25 mg and will inc over a month to 1 mg.
Great video as always. I went incrementally with small FUE procedures over the years so I could be in control of the donor area. So far so good. I am using Finasteride and Minox. And since Minox comes in the form of pills now, it's as easy as taking finateride every morning. I used to dislike the liquid version of minox as it was messy and greasy. Keep up the good work man.
Scalp pigmentation can be great I think if you have limited donor supply and therefore end up with a crown that still has hair, but is a bit sparse (20-30 FU/cm2). Using a bit of micropigmentation can really help making it seem less see through. Better than dumping more grafts into the crown when they could have been in the front.
Hey man, loved ur video on melting foam rogaine. Works so good getting it into the scalp saving money and better scalp coverage. Never would of thought of doing that. Thank you!
Hahaha 15:51-16:03 thats the ultimate truth u shud take this part and upload it as a separate vid titled " truth about just shave ur head bro "so those idiots who keep saying shave it can be linked to that vid
When you do these steps, it may help manage hair fall, like it helped me. Keep your scalp clean by washing it often. Use a mild shampoo. Make certain to get adequate sleep every night. Wash your hair 2-3 times a week with liitleextraa cocoonnoin shampoo. Apply the oil to your hair 2-3 times per week. After cleansing your hair, lightly pat it dry with an soft towel.
i been using minoxidil for years and now using finasteride...but you're saying i have to keep using minoxidil? are you still using minoxidil? i had to edit this comment...dude you give real talk and it's hilarious and what ppl need to hear *thumbs up*
I 100% agree with your stance on scalp micropigmentation. People don't seem to realize that once you get a tattoo, it fades over time but does not totally disappear. So, if you get scalp micropigmentation, you'll have to likely have the procedure redone every 5 years or so, but the previous ink will stay in your scalp, and the hair you have in the DHT safe zone will change color over time. Thus, eventually, you will have a base color on the top of your head one color, that will not be easy to totally mask, even with a new tattoo, and the sides will be a different color where your real hairs are. Long term, you are screwed. Plus, what people also don't know is that those that have this done cannot use specific razors to shave their heads, as they risk damaging the tattoo. They also, as you said, must shave every day, or they look horrible when the side hairs come in. So, it is an enormous pain in the ass, and it looks fake for anyone with a pair of eyes. Do not do it. Better go bald with dignity, and not go around looking like an insecure dude with a tattoo on his head.
You’re the Mann! You’re helping me big time, I’m on regain(rogain) propecia going to give it a go for 3 months. If nothing changes well 1500 bags gets me back my hair in Turkey.
Im almost 21 and just started minoxidil(ye im aware its a for life thing but im slowly fitting it into my daily routine). Just hoping it ll be enough and wont need to go on finasteride for few years at least. Thank you for these great videos tho keep it up my dude!
Imagine being 21 and none of these meds nor youtube existing. That's the reality i grew up in. You young men need to thank your good fortune to be the 1st generation in the history of mankind to have a choice in whether you go bald or not.
@@TheGabonesantal No! This is 3 years ago but for anyone who sees this, don't start with minoxidil! (Literally second point in this video). You will get hair regrowth and it might HIDE your hair loss for years, which is a bad thing because your hair loss is just continuing, so if you get off minoxidil the damage will be much larger than if you had started with finasteride, which actually halts the hair loss.
Great video. You are the first person that I've heard recommend taking Finisteride before Minoxidil. I thought Fin side effects where intense so it was to be used as a last resort?
Thank you! Finasteride's side effects are very rare and a lot of people who get sides use the standard 1 MG dose when they probably should've started off with just a fractional dose at 0.5 or even 0.25 MG a day. Its been shown it suppresses almost the same amount of DHT but with a lower side effect profile.
I have to completely agree with the number 1. I shaved my head as I've become norwood 3 and the way people started acting towards me is just...it really got me off guard. I don't look that bad, I have a nice head shape but being in early to mid twenties you can forget about having sex unless you really find an exception to the rule. It's not even about owning it, it's just about the fact that young women wants a guy with hair more than they want him to be tall or buffed or rich... So I started treatment and I will see what happens.
@@bangbangbou7781 I regrew quite a lot but nothing but hair transplant will make it better than norwood 2 for me. So I am saving for HT, I don't want it done in Turkey in some hair mill so it will be more expensive.
Hey Kevin. I just wanted to say thanks for all your videos. I’m a young man with very early MPB and your videos on finasteride finally convinced me to give it a try. I’m about 5 days into treatment with no side effects and I finally find myself not thinking about hair loss 24/7, and it feels liberating.
God damn. Been struggling with shitty hair since 18 I guess and thought I would be fucked for life. Those videos really give me hope and iam gonna start hair loss prevention soon. Thx man
@@bangbangbou7781 pretty good I guess. Took a long time for fin to really do its job. Also had quite a little bit of brain fog or depression. But that could also been from the fact that I didnt wanna go bald. A year ago I thought I would be a complete non responder. Also using minoxidil daily. In summary I can say that confidence wise it was the best thing for me to do. Couldnt imagine myself with a bald head in my mid 20ties. Some people can definitly rock that look but iam not one of them.
By far the best info on Internet. Have you ever tried laser helmet growth system like IRestore? Do you apply Minoxidil all over your hair or only on certain balding spots? I used to use the liquid one all over my scalp. Im a regular gym goer and I sweat a lot, which gave me eyelid pimples. Now I'm using the foam hoping it won't give me any of those side effects. Also, does taking creatine have any effects on hairloss? Does it increase DHT?
Thank you. I think laser treatments are scamful, I talk about it in my 5 overrated treatments for hair loss video. Foam dries much faster, I liquify it and apply it like liquid, much more convenient. Also creatine doesn't cause an increase in DHT, if it did it would be linked to a whole bunch of problems like enlarged prostate and acne, possibly even prostate cancer. There is one obscure study involving rugby players suggesting a small increase but the sample size was very small, not a particularly good study.
@@haircafekevin Appreciate your prompt reply man. I've been taking Finasteride for almost 2 years and I'm getting back on foam rogaine. Is it good to apply all over the scalp or only on balding spots? Also have you ever tried Derma Roller?
About mistake number 9, as a woman, we do not have much treatment option, so I started with minoxidil first and now I am adding finasteride, because I think it is superior to spironolactone as it targets specifically the DHT and both medicines are forbidden to women who are pregnant, brestfeedind or plan to conceive anyway. I think finasteride would adress the hairloss problem better, since I have normal leves of testosterone, so spironolactone cannot do much for me. Thank you for the information.
Dude. You said some really harsh shit on your last point. Definitely not necessary to go that hard when some people are straight up suicidal about balding.
Hi Haircafe. Since you mentioned minoxidil being detrimental to stop using even in conjunction with finasteride, I have a question. I'm 24 and experiencing pretty noticeable thinning of my crown as well as a receding of my hairline, but the crown is really where it's bad. I was thinking of getting a finasteride prescription + minoxidil to help me combat it. But at the moment, would it be more beneficial to just try out finasteride on its own and see what happens? Finasteride seems a lot more easy to use in comparison, and it'd suck if i eventually stopped using minoxidil and lost a ton of progress..
Hi Kevin. My brother and I recently came across your channel and we think you are an absolute legend. I do not see any contact details on your channel information. Is there any way we could get in touch? Much love
Kevin, should I begin using finasteride and minoxidle together at the same time? I’m noticing thinning more and more, but still have a good amount of hair, and think it’s a good time to give his a try
Prob look more like moby than vin diesel 😂😂 yeah man it makes anyone look +10 years older I think. Love the vid man good tips and advice. I have had itchy tingling scalp for a couple years & a bit of thinning dr prescribed 2% ketoconazole which brought me to your vid. Glad I watched! My hair only seems to itch days I take adderall (I’m prescribed) have you ever heard of that causing hairloss? Your hair looks good from what I see, ever heard of the laser helmet? Thoughts on that ? Interested in every option before trying minoxidil I don’t think I’m ready for that kind of commitment
Afraid scalp massages and brushes aren't going to do squat, hair loss is caused by genetic sensitivity to androgens, not lack of blood flow as even a bald man 's scalp will bleed if you cut it, its also why men are bald far more often than women. As for leave on treatments, I guess it depend son what you mean by that. If you're talking about topicals like minoxidil, stemoxydine, alfatradiol, RU58841, etc then yes those will work.
Kevin Mann I figured, bunch of guys say it’s about blood flow and circulation, histamines and lack of water...also, I was thinking more holistically, like cayenne pepper, peppermint, rosemary oil, stuff like that
My androgenic alopecia began with a big shed in July of 2014 (age 20) I searched online to see what was going with me and I read about telogen effluvium and that sounded like what I was going through so i didn’t worry about it because it claimed to be temporary. After continuing to shed for months, and no regrowth for over a year, I went to dermatologist august 2015 and they gave me a prescription of Finasteride. I was too terrified to take it due to internet hype of impotency. at this point I’ve been having terrible inflammation in my follicles that i’ve never ever experienced before in my life until dealing with hairloss. I weened myself on to generic Finasteride in December 2016 in hopes to halt hairloss. I had no side effects whatsoever, besides a little groin ache every so often. After a month of finasteride my inflammation on my scalp went away i would say 75%, every so often I would have this really itchy inflammation feeling on my scalp but no where near as bad as it was before, I believe i was shedding a little less. After a year of Finasteride I came to the conclusion that it hadn’t completely halted my hairless as I was still progressing. I do believe it slowed down my hairloss a little bit but hadn’t completely halted my hairloss which i was hoping. I also continued to have the scalp inflammation but not as bad as before i began the drug. January 2018 I began to add brand name Dutasteride AVODART to my DHT blocking regiment (.5mg every day) aiming to halt my hairloss, I was (am still) nearing norwood3 and I didn’t want any further progression or at least slow it down to a crawl. Me and Avodart got a lot very well ,and just after one month I had no more shedding at all, and 99% of my scalp itch went away I was so happy. one time i felt a little tingle in one follicle on the way to store, I really think adding DUT slowed my hairloss even more completely and it felt like it was halted In the middle of March 2018 I was nearing my 3 month mark on DUT and my hair had never felt better in 3 years I was doing so well I had never missed a day. Thinking about the long half life of Dutasteride, I was thinking it would be ok to go 2 days with out it while I went out of town to visit family. because I was thinking it my DHT levels wouldn’t move at all. also I’ve read people on the message boards do the same thing with no problem, and even Spencer Kobren says intermittent therapy works with 5 alpha reductase inhibitors. so I was feeling confident that two days without would do no harm After the second day of missing Dutasteride my scalp/follicles began to feel really itchy and inflamed like just before my DUT therapy began . i was upset. I was doing so well on the drug and the itch is not all in my head I’ve considered it It really hit my hard again my scalp was so itchy. I waited two weeks for the itch to go away, I began to take double the amount of Dutasteride on April 2nd 2018 in hoping that inhibiting more DHT would make it go away (as it did when i switched from FIN to DUT) but the inflamation it hadn’t really gotten any better or worse. nearing the end of April, I had been taking 2 Avodart pills every day (1g total) for almost a month, scalp inflammation is still present as it was a month ago, also I’ve just began to shed a lot a couple days ago. so presently….. I am thinking is to get off the drug (DUT) a little after the end of this month. And then begin again at the start of next year. I am Aiming to restart this whole Dutasteride Process in my body as it was going so well in the beginning until I ****ed it up by skipped a couple days which i am realizing is not good for some people as it is forgiving to others Im going to stay of Finasteride until the end of the year and let all of the DUT get out of my system, and then start again January 2019 as a restart of taking in hoping that the inflammation will go away as I believe inflammation and hairless rate correlate together. I was looking for any advice or thoughts on getting off the drug and then getting back onto it. as i have never had DHT levels rise again, I have only had them lowered, has anybody had any side effect with DHT levels rising? Or does anybody have any thoughts or advice? I am nearing NW3 and I have a girlfriend I just met who doesn’t really notice me balding just might notice my diffuse thinning. I do think she started to notice me shedding in the past couple days (shedding sucks) All I want is this hairless to halt. I think DHT blockers is the answer to that as I think I will not respond well to Minoxidil. also don’t ever really hear good things about minoxidil
Hey bro, great content as usual. Quick question, if I’m starting 0.25mg a day, how long should i use it for to get an understanding of if I should up the dosage or or not? Thanks
I'd say hair transplant IF minoxidol paired with finasteride doesn't grow back hair (assuming you start relatively early in hair loss). Transplant is so expensive especially in western countries
i got the smp done it looks good but it fades thats the only problem with it and if you wash your head with shampoo or anything within 2 months it will make it even fade more! But i do like it and its cheaper it will cost about 1500 per visit one is enough but if you destroy it with shampoo or lots of sweating in the first 2 months but regular workout is ok if you dont sweat alot, you will have to go back and do it again. Most place will give you a deal and they will charge 1500 for the first 2 visits after that its 350 or something like that, but at some point you will probably have to lazer remove the tats also so i will do that eventually.
Hi Kevin nice video! I was wondering if you have used finasteride(propecia) and/or minoxidil before and if so what your experience was? Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Bill Perri when my mates 90 year old grandad got dementia he spent most of the day with his pants down wanking. He did it at the most inconvenient moments
I am glad that I stumbled upon your videos, very informative. started to notice I was going thin on my crown when I was about 33. I'm now 39. For the first few years, I was just taking over the counter vitamins as requested by a hair doctor. I had very little results and decided to get a prescription for finasteride and I've been using that for the last year. I have definitely noticed results, far more in the last year than the previous few with the over the counter vitamins. I think I would start like to start using minoxidil along with the finasteride but wanted to get your advice first. Do you feel that is a wise decision?
Thanks. Frankly, I would hold off on the minoxidil for the time being. Minoxidil has a different mechanism of action than something like finasteride since it does not affect hormones in any way. As a result anything you gain with minoxidil must be maintained with minoxidil. It doesn't treat hair loss strictly speaking since it doesn't go after the cause of hair loss which is DHT, it is a hair growth stimulant that promotes hair growth in spite of DHT and it works synergistically with an anti androgen like finasteride. So minoxidil definitely helps but you'll have to commit to it for life and that's saying a lot since it has some cosmetic detriments such as promoting dandruff and it is genuinely a pain in the ass to use. The liquid takes about four hours to dry and makes the hair loos greasy as Hell. If you do start minoxidil, try the foam and if you have long hair then melt the foam down into a liquid using a hot air dryer and then apply it as you would apply liquid minoxidil. Honestly though, finasteride is a great stand alone treatment and I'd just enjoy being able to get away with that for as long as you can, there is a chance you may not ever need anything else.
Kevin Mann thanks so much for the great and honest advice, it's very hard to find online. I am not sure what I am going to do but will weigh out both options. If I use them both together will I still continue gains with the finasteride? If so I would be ok using the foam now to accelerate the growth and perhaps a couple years down the road quit using the foam and see how it now loos with just finasteride? it to see results. Perhaps I wouldn't need the foam anymore due to the gains by the finasteride?
Kenny D No problem and yes you will still maintain everything you've gained with finasteride so long as you stay on it. Minoxidil might give you some regrowth but keep in mind minoxidil doesn't work for everybody. Minoxidil's success depends on the presence of the enzme sulfotransferase and only about 38 percent of people will get results from it. It might work for you but any additional benefits you get from minoxidil can only be maintained with minoxidil. So if you stop minoxidil everything will go back as if you were just using finasteride granted you've gotten good results from the drug so that might not be a bad thing.
Kenny D Nah, I just got lucky and minoxidil worked for me. It was my first treatment though as I was just desperately looking for anything that could save my hair and minoxidil was the easiest to acquire. In retrospect I wish I had just started on finasteride and held out on minoxidil for when I really needed it, if ever.
I am fighting hair loss with natural supplements. I was using for many years minoxidil and i stopped it . I started with saw Palmetto and continued with pumpkin seeds and many others. I am very optimistic about it. After 4-5 years journey i believe that i am in a good position right now. Minoxidil, i believe that after many years of using stops working, probably because your body gets used to it. If you have thinning hair that progress slowly and not going bald fast, i think that you can fight it with a combination of vitamins and herbs.
Hey Kevin, I've been taking finasteride every night since the beginning of June and I don't think I'm seeing any improvement yet. I'm only 21 years old, but I'm considering putting the money down for a transplant. What do you think of my situation? Should I continue to wait this out? Let me know, thanks.
Yeah, I would consider saving up for a transplant but I wouldn't drop finasteride under any circumstances. Even if you are not noticing any improvement the finasteride will at least prevent things from getting worse. I had to get a hair transplant too but the finasteride stopped my hair loss dead in its tracks.
Do you take generic finasteride or brand Propecia? Why did you post that you were suffering from side effects on that message board and not to take finasteride ?
great video !...... when do you think hair cloning will happen and what do you think of REPLICEL'S RCH-01, and the work of Dr Takashi Tsuji at the RIKEN INSTITUTE over in japan ?
Kevin, would you say that rubbing your hair often would lead to more shedding. I notice that when I rub my hair a lot, quite some hair falls out (maybe 5-6 hairs at the time).?
Hey mate, your videos are very educational. Cheers for that! I was just wondering if you noticed more hair loss following a gym workout (e.g next day). I suspect this is possibly due to the sudden increase of testosterone in the body?
Bro your a fucking legend. This vid raises points i never even thought of. Very concice as well, you clearly know your stuff. Is there a way to ask you a few questions?

Dude, I really don't want to turn this into an end term paper so I'll be brief. In the sea of alpha males, bald cafes, hair loss gurus and all the other goofs it's really refreshing to find a down to earth guy that just lays down his experiences, tips and plain facts. Your standpoint towards "just shave it, bro" is absolutely what I've been feeling ever since I got concerned with hair loss. So far, after 5 years I've got some recession in the temple area and I think that within 2-3 years I'll have to jump aboard the finasteride boat. I don't give a shit about how people perceive me, what I get or don't get whether I am or am not bald. However, I do give a shit about what I like and what I want and that is having a choice of either growing my hair out or cutting it. I used to shave my head completely bald in my mid teens, however even then my hairline was still visible and somewhat framed my face. I think the impact balding has on young men's life is utterly trivialized and is causing more damage than good. That whole self-esteem movement that just tells you to lay down your arms, give up and accept this new shitty condition contradicts the follow your dreams attitude that is so prevalent in the Western culture. If you do like the bald look and balding doesn't concern you at all then more power to you, but belittling guys that continue the fight is one fucked up behavior that I hope will vanish over the next decade or so.
As soon as you realise you are balding, you should get on finasteride. You always regret not Starting earlier

That is because he is documenting his own experience and not looking to sell you an 'alternative' to what already exists on the market.

Probably the best Hairloss chanel here.
Damn dude no need to roast Moby and Billy Corgan like that lol
The Shadow knows.
Just turned 36, going to the doc soon to start fin. Have a bit of noticeable thinning, especially on my crown. Trying to turn that around. Also trying to avoid minoxidil. Thanks for all this info dude.
You are a time machine , WHY ?
On a lot of topics and situations im saying ''If there was a time machine, I would go 3-10 years to the past and change my mind by punching myself on the face''
But you sir is me from the future and waking me up . You are a GOD.
I honestly don’t know how in the world this video only has 3k views!! It blows my fucking mind, you are a GOD when it comes to hairloss man. A fucking guru who knows the in’s and out’s of hairloss. I’ve been fighting this for 5 years now doing years of research and I can honestly say, everything you talk about is legit. Keep up the great work !
I remember when the doctor prescribed me finasteride, when I found out about the effects I thought the doctor was crazy. I went to a second specialist who told me not to take finasteride but minoxidil. Now I take finasteride anyway and am doomed to minoxidil...
Now I know that the first doctor knew what he is doing.
Hey man... I just want to say i appreciate your work so much, you aren‘t like those payed doctors on youtube. You just tell us the logical facts and you even prove us how and why. It may be bad to have thinning hair, but hey I‘m happy that I have been born in the same generation as you, because you are one angel providing us in need. It may sound crazy but loosing hair is for many a nightmare
Good list!
I think micro pigmentation is stupid too.
Another thing people don't realize is that in most cases you need more than one hair transplant. It is almost impossible to get full density in a completely bald patch like the temporal region and hairline in one hair transplant treatment. Only so many hairs can be placed per cm to have a high success rate. I am going to be getting a second hair transplant in a few months to make the front hairline more dense.
Also a lot of time lighting is very deceiving in videos or pictures that you see of a hair transplant results. Mine will look good in a lot of lighting but when a light shines right on it it looks like crap!
Ive seen alot of solid pigmentation, most fake ones are due to overly straight hairlines.
I'm so glad you addressed these issues, especially the "just shave it bro."
your channel is amazing...I wonder why you have so little followers!
Honestly man, you're so well informed and helpful to hair loss community and this low key video is such a beautiful thing. Your so engaging. Love the other videos too BTW but this is a nice change when you feel it.
This guy knows so much. I saw a skin take care video which confirmed me that Kevin know real stuff. I trust him with research opinion.
I started losing hair in my late teens, hairline didn’t really recede and my crown didn’t really get bald but just the thickness of my hair got really bad. I always thought it was due to a reason other than male pattern baldness. But I started taking 1mg finasteride so I’ll see how that works. Great vid!
Exactly the same situation. How's it working?
Any results?
Results??
Helped with losing some hair and a little thickness but it’s not recovered to the amount I’d desire
Luke damn are you also doing minoxidil and using a anti dht shampoo? Or just finasterirde 1 mg daily
Your videos are brilliant. I'm in my early 50s with a lightly receding hairloss but even at my age don't to go bald so I take fanasteride and minoxidil. Great work buddy.
i have 90 degree angles on my temples, im only 15. i dont understand any hairloss subjects, its just i like my hair
Thanks Mann! Your videos have given me the courage to finally take finasteride! I still have most of my hair but noticed recent hairline change. I just took my first dose .25 mg and will inc over a month to 1 mg.
how's it going?
@@Atlas-uy9fs he died, dude
Great video as always. I went incrementally with small FUE procedures over the years so I could be in control of the donor area. So far so good. I am using Finasteride and Minox. And since Minox comes in the form of pills now, it's as easy as taking finateride every morning. I used to dislike the liquid version of minox as it was messy and greasy. Keep up the good work man.
15:00 “who remembers when any of these motherfuckers had hair” 😂
Mate I’m glad that you posted this one, I watched the Sheddijg video cause my hair is shedding real bad, thank you for this
Have to say I love the casual intro of this video. Feels far more genuine and less acted than the "sup chooms, hope everything's nova" one
Twas back before I even knew anyone watched my channel. I was kinda like "let's try this youtube stuff and see what happens."
@@haircafekevin I know. Just wanted to tell you that it actually seems far more genuine to me.
Scalp pigmentation can be great I think if you have limited donor supply and therefore end up with a crown that still has hair, but is a bit sparse (20-30 FU/cm2). Using a bit of micropigmentation can really help making it seem less see through.
Better than dumping more grafts into the crown when they could have been in the front.
Man i wish i found your channel 3 years ago
Hey man, loved ur video on melting foam rogaine. Works so good getting it into the scalp saving money and better scalp coverage. Never would of thought of doing that. Thank you!
Appreciate it, thanks for watching.
@@williamperri3437 how old are you ?
What do you mean melting foam rogaine?
Kevin Mann What’s the video that talks about this? I’m so interested
Minoxidil is available over the counter in Canada.
Good information. I wish that I had listened to something like this when I first started to lose my hair.
Hahaha 15:51-16:03 thats the ultimate truth u shud take this part and upload it as a separate vid titled " truth about just shave ur head bro "so those idiots who keep saying shave it can be linked to that vid
Yes lmfao
When you do these steps, it may help manage hair fall, like it helped me. Keep your scalp clean by washing it often. Use a mild shampoo. Make certain to get adequate sleep every night. Wash your hair 2-3 times a week with liitleextraa cocoonnoin shampoo. Apply the oil to your hair 2-3 times per week. After cleansing your hair, lightly pat it dry with an soft towel.
Have been using this cooconnion oil from liitllextra for over six months and have got another one. The oil really reduced hair fall.
watch at 1.25 speed for extra intensity. Like the video, thank you Kevin
Then there‘s me at 2x hah
I love your attitude man :D
It's hilarious how you're spitting facts!
i been using minoxidil for years and now using finasteride...but you're saying i have to keep using minoxidil? are you still using minoxidil? i had to edit this comment...dude you give real talk and it's hilarious and what ppl need to hear *thumbs up*
I 100% agree with your stance on scalp micropigmentation. People don't seem to realize that once you get a tattoo, it fades over time but does not totally disappear. So, if you get scalp micropigmentation, you'll have to likely have the procedure redone every 5 years or so, but the previous ink will stay in your scalp, and the hair you have in the DHT safe zone will change color over time. Thus, eventually, you will have a base color on the top of your head one color, that will not be easy to totally mask, even with a new tattoo, and the sides will be a different color where your real hairs are. Long term, you are screwed. Plus, what people also don't know is that those that have this done cannot use specific razors to shave their heads, as they risk damaging the tattoo. They also, as you said, must shave every day, or they look horrible when the side hairs come in. So, it is an enormous pain in the ass, and it looks fake for anyone with a pair of eyes. Do not do it. Better go bald with dignity, and not go around looking like an insecure dude with a tattoo on his head.
How old are you ? And how old you were when you start to treat your hairloss ?
You’re the Mann! You’re helping me big time, I’m on regain(rogain) propecia going to give it a go for 3 months. If nothing changes well 1500 bags gets me back my hair in Turkey.
A Man Called Jim same here
I watch buddy's commercials , to support him ......Nice work Mr. Mann!
Wow you really know a lot about all those kinds of stuff.. ty very much for reaching my knowledge
great break down. Loved the first one.
so glad I fouund this channel
Im almost 21 and just started minoxidil(ye im aware its a for life thing but im slowly fitting it into my daily routine). Just hoping it ll be enough and wont need to go on finasteride for few years at least. Thank you for these great videos tho keep it up my dude!
Imagine being 21 and none of these meds nor youtube existing. That's the reality i grew up in. You young men need to thank your good fortune to be the 1st generation in the history of mankind to have a choice in whether you go bald or not.
@@DB-xp9px yes i am aware of that and im grateful for it and i'm sorry there was nothing you could do when this happened to you
@@TheGabonesantal No! This is 3 years ago but for anyone who sees this, don't start with minoxidil! (Literally second point in this video). You will get hair regrowth and it might HIDE your hair loss for years, which is a bad thing because your hair loss is just continuing, so if you get off minoxidil the damage will be much larger than if you had started with finasteride, which actually halts the hair loss.
Great info, no BS.
great video and advice.
I fucking love your channel man!!!
Great video. You are the first person that I've heard recommend taking Finisteride before Minoxidil. I thought Fin side effects where intense so it was to be used as a last resort?
Thank you! Finasteride's side effects are very rare and a lot of people who get sides use the standard 1 MG dose when they probably should've started off with just a fractional dose at 0.5 or even 0.25 MG a day. Its been shown it suppresses almost the same amount of DHT but with a lower side effect profile.
Hair loss ADD LOL Dude, you're hilarious. We have the same kind of sense of humor...
hahaha, that final point is epic!
great video though, good info, keep up the good work!
SUPERB CONTENT!
I have to completely agree with the number 1.
I shaved my head as I've become norwood 3 and the way people started acting towards me is just...it really got me off guard. I don't look that bad, I have a nice head shape but being in early to mid twenties you can forget about having sex unless you really find an exception to the rule. It's not even about owning it, it's just about the fact that young women wants a guy with hair more than they want him to be tall or buffed or rich...
So I started treatment and I will see what happens.
What is up with the treatment 2 years after? How did it turn out?
@@bangbangbou7781 I regrew quite a lot but nothing but hair transplant will make it better than norwood 2 for me. So I am saving for HT, I don't want it done in Turkey in some hair mill so it will be more expensive.
I love that I have a scalp pigmentation ad for this video
you are awesome man, keep up the great work
Hey Kevin. I just wanted to say thanks for all your videos. I’m a young man with very early MPB and your videos on finasteride finally convinced me to give it a try. I’m about 5 days into treatment with no side effects and I finally find myself not thinking about hair loss 24/7, and it feels liberating.
How old are you
@@varunbatta4197 14
God damn. Been struggling with shitty hair since 18 I guess and thought I would be fucked for life. Those videos really give me hope and iam gonna start hair loss prevention soon. Thx man
Did you start 3 years after dawg? If yes how has it been going for you?
@@bangbangbou7781 pretty good I guess. Took a long time for fin to really do its job. Also had quite a little bit of brain fog or depression. But that could also been from the fact that I didnt wanna go bald. A year ago I thought I would be a complete non responder. Also using minoxidil daily. In summary I can say that confidence wise it was the best thing for me to do. Couldnt imagine myself with a bald head in my mid 20ties. Some people can definitly rock that look but iam not one of them.
Hey man first time watching one of your vids. You seem very knowledgeable. Do you recommend fin?
I love your videos. Given me so much knowledge. Is there a way to ask you a few questions? Im in the early years of hair loss but need to act fast.
Have you got new hair growth?
By far the best info on Internet. Have you ever tried laser helmet growth system like IRestore? Do you apply Minoxidil all over your hair or only on certain balding spots? I used to use the liquid one all over my scalp. Im a regular gym goer and I sweat a lot, which gave me eyelid pimples. Now I'm using the foam hoping it won't give me any of those side effects. Also, does taking creatine have any effects on hairloss? Does it increase DHT?
Thank you.
I think laser treatments are scamful, I talk about it in my 5 overrated treatments for hair loss video.
Foam dries much faster, I liquify it and apply it like liquid, much more convenient.
Also creatine doesn't cause an increase in DHT, if it did it would be linked to a whole bunch of problems like enlarged prostate and acne, possibly even prostate cancer.
There is one obscure study involving rugby players suggesting a small increase but the sample size was very small, not a particularly good study.
@@haircafekevin Appreciate your prompt reply man. I've been taking Finasteride for almost 2 years and I'm getting back on foam rogaine. Is it good to apply all over the scalp or only on balding spots? Also have you ever tried Derma Roller?
About mistake number 9, as a woman, we do not have much treatment option, so I started with minoxidil first and now I am adding finasteride, because I think it is superior to spironolactone as it targets specifically the DHT and both medicines are forbidden to women who are pregnant, brestfeedind or plan to conceive anyway. I think finasteride would adress the hairloss problem better, since I have normal leves of testosterone, so spironolactone cannot do much for me.
Thank you for the information.
Good list, great and to the point.
Dude. You said some really harsh shit on your last point. Definitely not necessary to go that hard when some people are straight up suicidal about balding.
Hi Haircafe. Since you mentioned minoxidil being detrimental to stop using even in conjunction with finasteride, I have a question. I'm 24 and experiencing pretty noticeable thinning of my crown as well as a receding of my hairline, but the crown is really where it's bad. I was thinking of getting a finasteride prescription + minoxidil to help me combat it. But at the moment, would it be more beneficial to just try out finasteride on its own and see what happens? Finasteride seems a lot more easy to use in comparison, and it'd suck if i eventually stopped using minoxidil and lost a ton of progress..
Hi Kevin. My brother and I recently came across your channel and we think you are an absolute legend. I do not see any contact details on your channel information. Is there any way we could get in touch? Much love
Kevin, should I begin using finasteride and minoxidle together at the same time? I’m noticing thinning more and more, but still have a good amount of hair, and think it’s a good time to give his a try
Excellent video. Very well done.
theres some studies that show taking minoxidil with finasteride is ideal compared to just finasteride
Prob look more like moby than vin diesel 😂😂 yeah man it makes anyone look +10 years older I think. Love the vid man good tips and advice.
I have had itchy tingling scalp for a couple years & a bit of thinning dr prescribed 2% ketoconazole which brought me to your vid. Glad I watched! My hair only seems to itch days I take adderall (I’m prescribed) have you ever heard of that causing hairloss?
Your hair looks good from what I see, ever heard of the laser helmet? Thoughts on that ?
Interested in every option before trying minoxidil I don’t think I’m ready for that kind of commitment
what about massaging your scalp with a brush, hair needling, shampoos, leave on treatments, drinking water, etc...
Afraid scalp massages and brushes aren't going to do squat, hair loss is caused by genetic sensitivity to androgens, not lack of blood flow as even a bald man 's scalp will bleed if you cut it, its also why men are bald far more often than women.
As for leave on treatments, I guess it depend son what you mean by that. If you're talking about topicals like minoxidil, stemoxydine, alfatradiol, RU58841, etc then yes those will work.
Kevin Mann I figured, bunch of guys say it’s about blood flow and circulation, histamines and lack of water...also, I was thinking more holistically, like cayenne pepper, peppermint, rosemary oil, stuff like that
I love your passion.
My androgenic alopecia began with a big shed in July of 2014 (age 20) I searched online to see what was going with me and I read about telogen effluvium and that sounded like what I was going through so i didn’t worry about it because it claimed to be temporary.
After continuing to shed for months, and no regrowth for over a year, I went to dermatologist august 2015 and they gave me a prescription of Finasteride. I was too terrified to take it due to internet hype of impotency. at this point I’ve been having terrible inflammation in my follicles that i’ve never ever experienced before in my life until dealing with hairloss.
I weened myself on to generic Finasteride in December 2016 in hopes to halt hairloss. I had no side effects whatsoever, besides a little groin ache every so often. After a month of finasteride my inflammation on my scalp went away i would say 75%, every so often I would have this really itchy inflammation feeling on my scalp but no where near as bad as it was before, I believe i was shedding a little less.
After a year of Finasteride I came to the conclusion that it hadn’t completely halted my hairless as I was still progressing. I do believe it slowed down my hairloss a little bit but hadn’t completely halted my hairloss which i was hoping. I also continued to have the scalp inflammation but not as bad as before i began the drug.
January 2018 I began to add brand name Dutasteride AVODART to my DHT blocking regiment (.5mg every day) aiming to halt my hairloss, I was (am still) nearing norwood3 and I didn’t want any further progression or at least slow it down to a crawl.
Me and Avodart got a lot very well ,and just after one month I had no more shedding at all, and 99% of my scalp itch went away I was so happy. one time i felt a little tingle in one follicle on the way to store, I really think adding DUT slowed my hairloss even more completely and it felt like it was halted
In the middle of March 2018 I was nearing my 3 month mark on DUT and my hair had never felt better in 3 years I was doing so well I had never missed a day.
Thinking about the long half life of Dutasteride, I was thinking it would be ok to go 2 days with out it while I went out of town to visit family. because I was thinking it my DHT levels wouldn’t move at all. also I’ve read people on the message boards do the same thing with no problem, and even Spencer Kobren says intermittent therapy works with 5 alpha reductase inhibitors. so I was feeling confident that two days without would do no harm
After the second day of missing Dutasteride my scalp/follicles began to feel really itchy and inflamed like just before my DUT therapy began . i was upset. I was doing so well on the drug and the itch is not all in my head I’ve considered it It really hit my hard again my scalp was so itchy.
I waited two weeks for the itch to go away, I began to take double the amount of Dutasteride on April 2nd 2018 in hoping that inhibiting more DHT would make it go away (as it did when i switched from FIN to DUT) but the inflamation it hadn’t really gotten any better or worse.
nearing the end of April, I had been taking 2 Avodart pills every day (1g total) for almost a month, scalp inflammation is still present as it was a month ago, also I’ve just began to shed a lot a couple days ago.
so presently…..
I am thinking is to get off the drug (DUT) a little after the end of this month. And then begin again at the start of next year. I am Aiming to restart this whole Dutasteride Process in my body as it was going so well in the beginning until I ****ed it up by skipped a couple days which i am realizing is not good for some people as it is forgiving to others
Im going to stay of Finasteride until the end of the year and let all of the DUT get out of my system, and then start again January 2019 as a restart of taking in hoping that the inflammation will go away as I believe inflammation and hairless rate correlate together.
I was looking for any advice or thoughts on getting off the drug and then getting back onto it. as i have never had DHT levels rise again, I have only had them lowered, has anybody had any side effect with DHT levels rising?
Or does anybody have any thoughts or advice? I am nearing NW3 and I have a girlfriend I just met who doesn’t really notice me balding just might notice my diffuse thinning. I do think she started to notice me shedding in the past couple days (shedding sucks)
All I want is this hairless to halt. I think DHT blockers is the answer to that as I think I will not respond well to Minoxidil. also don’t ever really hear good things about minoxidil
did ypur derma give you the finasteride right away or he/she ask for a bloodwork first?
Hey bro, great content as usual. Quick question, if I’m starting 0.25mg a day, how long should i use it for to get an understanding of if I should up the dosage or or not? Thanks

Basically
1) Fintasteride to stop and improve quality of hair
2) Hair transplant to get lost hair back.
I'd say hair transplant IF minoxidol paired with finasteride doesn't grow back hair (assuming you start relatively early in hair loss). Transplant is so expensive especially in western countries

i love this dude
you should make a "just shave it brO;" shirt, i come to this video every once in a while to see it
i got the smp done it looks good but it fades thats the only problem with it and if you wash your head with shampoo or anything within 2 months it will make it even fade more! But i do like it and its cheaper it will cost about 1500 per visit one is enough but if you destroy it with shampoo or lots of sweating in the first 2 months but regular workout is ok if you dont sweat alot, you will have to go back and do it again. Most place will give you a deal and they will charge 1500 for the first 2 visits after that its 350 or something like that, but at some point you will probably have to lazer remove the tats also so i will do that eventually.

I am glad that I stumbled upon your videos, very informative. started to notice I was going thin on my crown when I was about 33. I'm now 39. For the first few years, I was just taking over the counter vitamins as requested by a hair doctor. I had very little results and decided to get a prescription for finasteride and I've been using that for the last year. I have definitely noticed results, far more in the last year than the previous few with the over the counter vitamins. I think I would start like to start using minoxidil along with the finasteride but wanted to get your advice first. Do you feel that is a wise decision?
Thanks.
Frankly, I would hold off on the minoxidil for the time being. Minoxidil has a different mechanism of action than something like finasteride since it does not affect hormones in any way. As a result anything you gain with minoxidil must be maintained with minoxidil. It doesn't treat hair loss strictly speaking since it doesn't go after the cause of hair loss which is DHT, it is a hair growth stimulant that promotes hair growth in spite of DHT and it works synergistically with an anti androgen like finasteride.
So minoxidil definitely helps but you'll have to commit to it for life and that's saying a lot since it has some cosmetic detriments such as promoting dandruff and it is genuinely a pain in the ass to use. The liquid takes about four hours to dry and makes the hair loos greasy as Hell.
If you do start minoxidil, try the foam and if you have long hair then melt the foam down into a liquid using a hot air dryer and then apply it as you would apply liquid minoxidil.
Honestly though, finasteride is a great stand alone treatment and I'd just enjoy being able to get away with that for as long as you can, there is a chance you may not ever need anything else.
Kevin Mann thanks so much for the great and honest advice, it's very hard to find online. I am not sure what I am going to do but will weigh out both options. If I use them both together will I still continue gains with the finasteride? If so I would be ok using the foam now to accelerate the growth and perhaps a couple years down the road quit using the foam and see how it now loos with just finasteride? it to see results. Perhaps I wouldn't need the foam anymore due to the gains by the finasteride?
Kenny D No problem and yes you will still maintain everything you've gained with finasteride so long as you stay on it.
Minoxidil might give you some regrowth but keep in mind minoxidil doesn't work for everybody. Minoxidil's success depends on the presence of the enzme sulfotransferase and only about 38 percent of people will get results from it.
It might work for you but any additional benefits you get from minoxidil can only be maintained with minoxidil. So if you stop minoxidil everything will go back as if you were just using finasteride granted you've gotten good results from the drug so that might not be a bad thing.
Great! Did you know you had the enzyme before you tried to did you just give it a shot?
Kenny D Nah, I just got lucky and minoxidil worked for me. It was my first treatment though as I was just desperately looking for anything that could save my hair and minoxidil was the easiest to acquire.
In retrospect I wish I had just started on finasteride and held out on minoxidil for when I really needed it, if ever.
I am fighting hair loss with natural supplements. I was using for many years minoxidil and i stopped it . I started with saw Palmetto and continued with pumpkin seeds and many others. I am very optimistic about it. After 4-5 years journey i believe that i am in a good position right now. Minoxidil, i believe that after many years of using stops working, probably because your body gets used to it. If you have thinning hair that progress slowly and not going bald fast, i think that you can fight it with a combination of vitamins and herbs.
Hey Kevin,
I've been taking finasteride every night since the beginning of June and I don't think I'm seeing any improvement yet. I'm only 21 years old, but I'm considering putting the money down for a transplant. What do you think of my situation? Should I continue to wait this out? Let me know, thanks.
Yeah, I would consider saving up for a transplant but I wouldn't drop finasteride under any circumstances. Even if you are not noticing any improvement the finasteride will at least prevent things from getting worse. I had to get a hair transplant too but the finasteride stopped my hair loss dead in its tracks.
Update?
I am also in Colorado and was wondering who did your transplant surgery? Thanks in advance.
Do you take generic finasteride or brand Propecia?
Why did you post that you were suffering from side effects on that message board and not to take finasteride ?

Use Minoxidil and when you get older get on Finasteride.
10:11 Dat dere Celltech, Ronnie meme checked
Kevin, would you say that rubbing your hair often would lead to more shedding. I notice that when I rub my hair a lot, quite some hair falls out (maybe 5-6 hairs at the time).?
Hey mate, your videos are very educational. Cheers for that! I was just wondering if you noticed more hair loss following a gym workout (e.g next day). I suspect this is possibly due to the sudden increase of testosterone in the body?
Bro your a fucking legend. This vid raises points i never even thought of. Very concice as well, you clearly know your stuff. Is there a way to ask you a few questions?
