Best channel on youtube. Saving 20K men from losing their hair and confidence.
Thanks homie! More than anything I just want people to not be afraid to save their hair.
@@haircafekevin I have a question, I am 22 years old and have a full head of hair but at the same time it feels like ı am thininning , my hairline is not back too.And ı dont want to lose my hair.
So my question is should ı start fin or rogain etc.. to protect my hair, even if ı dont lose it or lose very little?
@@sonmohikan5964 GET ON FIN. GETTTT ONNNNN FINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN.
@@sonmohikan5964 First visit a dermatologist, he/she will most likely tell you if your hair is really thinning or you just freak out about nothing. Then your doctor will most likely tell you what is your next step. Visit a doctor ASAP, don't waste your time with reading hair loss forums and stuff like that!
@@sonmohikan5964 Get on fin ASAP, talk to your doctor. Don't wait until you've lost ground.
Do it...
DO IT NAOOO!!!!
The Mann is officially BACK. Great vid as always.
I'm so glad you came back to RUclips! I started finasteride about a month ago after a year of aggressive thinning. I might never have started at all if I hadn't discovered this channel!
Bro any improvements?
Please don’t remove this channel again! It’s so helpful and gives me confidence!
Thank God for this Man! Keep doing the great work. Preach brother!
Kevin, your opening monologue almost made me shed a tear, I love your content. I see that fin can do wonders for most people. When you said that when anything goes wrong, some people blame it on the fin that resonated deeply with me. I love your channel and am trying to beat this nocebo effect. Thanks for the hope, Mann:) I'm just a wreck and my brain loves to work against me sometimes. The only thing that makes me very depressed inside is when I see in a journal artical that a doctor say that some side effects are permanent. My heart drops.
You’re and More Plates More Dates are the guys that convince me to start Finasteride.
You should definitely make a video with Derek the guy that owns the More Plates More Dates channel.
Thanks Kevin you saved my life!
More plates more dates is a click bate butt hole
@@hustlar15 perchè?
... because he is click bate? I agree with what he says most of the time but Kevin is out here giving information and research more plates more dates in here for the youtube income. I prefer watching Kevin.
How's it going?
I think more plates deleted that video
This video had me in stitches. Thanks Kev
Took the plunge and started finasteride about a month ago, already notice my temples filling in. Absolutely no side effects and I couldn't be happier. Thanks Kev
@@Voltar bro if you bolding just take ask your doctor for some if you haven’t. It does work but you have to give it time. I’m using it topically but it’s been working for my temple area. Hope it helps bro

Love your channel. I’ve been on fin for 6 months and it’s refreshing to hear all of your research.
Thanks, choom!
Great to have you back big dawg. This video must be the best summary of the whole hairloss ideology shitshow. I will be sending this to many a friend.
Wow, at first I thought you were just funny. Turns out you actually provided extremely thorough information-thank you!
Just wanted to say thank you for your great work, you really changed the life of me and many others and we will never forget it.
Are you still on it?
We've missed you Mann. keep the quality informative vids coming :)
The witty comments\humor combined with solid facts is what makes you my favorite hair care channel lol.
Thanks choom!
Oh shit, look who is back. Glad that you're back and did not let the internet simps keep you down.
You're the man, Kevin!
glad your back kevin :)
Getting my hair transplant in 3 days. Can't wait! It's been one year since I started finasteride which is a fundamental part of preparing yourself for a HT.

Why man? I mean the new ones will survive the transplant and will not fall if they are programmed not to.

Thank goodness you are back Kev cause those fanasteride nay sayers we're almost getting to me with their emotional stories almost convincing me .I even came across a you tuber trying to rally people against minoxidil saying that minoxidil gave them side effects that lasted long after they stopped using it .

Glad to have you along for the battle!

great advice Kevin!
Much obliged choom.

BRO YOUR BACK!!!
Best thumbnails on RUclips 😂
And thanks a lot for coming back Kevin. No one on RUclips is as rigorous with backing what they say with clinical studies, so you're irreplaceable.
Also could you please touch upon 5BR inhibition in Fin? Liver health is important for me, and this has been stopping me from starting it, but it seems like this never gets talked about. Is it comparable to 5AR1 inhibition in Dut in terms of liver damage?
Glad to be back choom. I've seen some limited research on interactions between finasteride and the 5BR enzyme but I don't think there is a whole lot of data on it so I don't think it is anything to worry about.
Finasteride and dutasteride both metabolize through the hepatic pathway so a subject on liver health would be interesting. I think I have addressed it in videos before but never a specific video on the subject.
Love the upload frequency recently... keep it up bro. Can you do a video on diet and how it affects hair?
Thanks, hope you’re well.
Sure, I've talked about it here and there but it might make for an interesting subject to cover.
@@haircafekevin thanks
Kevin has the best thumbnails on RUclips
3:25-3:35 Someone had to say this out loud. Easily the best response to "but but Jason Statham and Vin Diesel are bald". Thanks Kevin for the amazing content as always!
Pretty much impossible to get any smaller, so what do I have to lose?🤷🏻♂️
Just cunnilingusmaxx bro!
@@haircafekevin hahahahahahah😂😂😂😂
Ooof sorry to hear that bro, maybe you’ll luck out in a next life
Thank you so much for you positive infos
Of course, thank you for watching.
I personally think in some cases people actually have too much DHT, I've been taking Fin 3x/wk for 6 months, and I can say not only is my hair thicker (hoping for more in time) but also I'm less angry and I sweat less, which I think DHT was the cause, and I dont really notice a difference in libido, overall I'm glad to be using it, being angry sweaty and bald isn't a goal of mine
Hey man. I've also started with 3x/week. When did your shedding start? Because it's day 10 and I don't think I'm experiencing it yet
@@isnortCGproducts never got much of a shed

This guy is hilarious. When he says "Just shave it broo" with that tone of voice, I always laugh.
Kevin you’re literally my father
Thanks for video bro.... 🤲
Hey man, I've been wondering if and how do you keep your hair healthy and prevent it from going extremely damaged? Considering you shampoo everyday from one of your videos, I assume you use some kind of hair oil and conditioner to keep it in good condition.
Minoxidil makes my hair porosity extremely high because of shampooing it everyday and it makes it dry, especially after applying the solution and keeping it on for at least 6-7 hours. I've been trying to apply coconut oil on my hair strands an hour after applying minoxidil daily before going to sleep and applying a conditioner on my hair the day after I shower, which in turn I hope it will make it more healthy.
I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do, but if you could let me know your opinion or routine on this I would be extremely thankful.
Kevin, can you make a video that shows your own hair loss progress through the years
Hey Kevin, quick question, there’s a growing concern about long term finasteride usage being linked to lowered free testosterone due to increase SBHG. Do you think it is true and free T is infact affected?
eat as healthy as you can and exercise your free T will sky rocket and a small study of Boron supplementation showed a lowering of SBHG
This is Proscar and Propecia HR Department you can work in both companies from tomorrow.
What up hairloss superhero, love the content. Hey man, I've seen a bunch of conflicting information about people losing their hair quicker when resistance training I can't seem to find any videos where you cover this topic, thoughts? 🤔
I have seen a few claims to that effect, but the data is weak and probably explained more by stress-induced telogen effluvium from over-training with or without inadequate nutrition, or even anabolic steroid use. There are transient increases in testosterone with exercise, but not enough to make a difference. I don't think there is any good evidence that people who regularly do resistance training have worsening androgenic alopecia.
Thanks Kevin, anyone mentions he is not on finasteride due to scarring from side effects, I directly share your channel with him, he will find out how misinformed he was, your scientific evidence will kill his fears!
Are you on it any sides?
as always this shit is the BEST , keep em coming kevin!
I'm so glad there is someone who is against the stupid "shave it bro".
Like why we have a solution
Hopped back on minoxidil except this time I’m applying a cream from ForHims with a couple ingredients that also includes .25 tretnoin! Wish me luck boys
You've got this.
Get a dutasteride.
@@xxxxxxxyyyyyyy already have been for a year but I switched name brand avodart 4 months ago
It would make sense if it shrunk because DHT is important in penile tissue
Great video! Definitely needed the reassurance lol!
Also, I wondering what you would recommend for someone who was diagnosed with both the beginning of male pattern baldness and stress-induced telogen effluvium. Been on fin 1mg/daily for almost 3 months, but I need something for the stress hairloss. I know beggars shouldn't be choosers, but preferably not topical anything or oral min. Thanks!
Telogen effluvium should get better by itself if you give it time. Sounds like you don't like topical minoxidil, but it might help.
Thanks! And yeah, I don't want to be hooked on min yet as I think I could get by without it. The dermatologist suggested Viviscal and Nutrafol. I know those won't work for MPB, but would they possibly help with TE? And if so, would I have to take them forever like fin?
Hi Kevin! It´s nice to see your videos, as always.
Currently on month 8 taking fin 1,25 mg x 3 times per week. I´m shedding less hairs than what I used to do before taking fin. However, I´m goign through a shedding phase this past few days. Didn´t notice any regrowth, my hair is probably a little bit thinner indeed.
What would u do if u were in my position? Should I add something like oral minoxidil or is it better for me to wait and give fin more time before adding another treatment?
I would probably go for oral minoxidil instead of topical since I have a lot of issues related with seborrheic dermatitis.
Maybe u can do a video about this topic one day.
Thanks for the help, I really appreciate your work.
No, it's nothing to worry about. It is a necessary step to regrowing hair and all hairs go through cycles. People freak out about this because they're not educated about the hair growth cycle. Shedding is inevitable because it is impossible to keep hair permanently in the anagen growth phase and the growth of the hair is not uniform so it is possible for hair to shed worse at certain times of the year.
Please watch my video on shedding.

Man, I was scared of starting finasteride because of the penile shrinkage. Thanks for the clarification. Starting tomorrow.
You are one evil dude. And pretty much ignorant. If you spill certain herbicides on you in your twenties and come down with cancer decades later , how long did the herbicide stay in your system ? What is it's half life ?
Who do you work for ?
Do you sell propecia? Or finasteride?
And calling these people minimum wage bums shows who you really are.
The Bible says not to lay a curse on anyone ,
but that does not mean that the filth that you are spewing won't come back to haunt you. You are definitely not a scientist. But you rattle a good lingo. DHT may come back just as strong , but deny if you will that it could not come back to roost after doing it's damage.
Lay that science on us. Learn some science , and you'll have some scientific knowledge.
Hello. When going to a dermatologist/tricologist. Can we have a shaved head ( 0 guard ) and do the trichoscopy examination still? Can the 50x camera magnitification see the difference beetween normal hairs and miniaturized ones? Or better to have a longer hair lenght to exam be more precise? Thank you.

Any regrowth?

Hey Kevin, so glad your back. Have you ever heard of people getting sides from topical finasteride but not from oral (I know it sounds strange)? Perhaps due to changing brands of finasteride or something else.
Yeah I have, some people have told me about this and when I pressed them on it it seems like they were mega dosing it, saturating their scalp. Topical finasteride still goes systemic so it makes sense.
Thanks for the reply Kevin. Really appreciate that you take out the time to reply to messages. I'll be trying 0.25mg every other day for finasteride orally and this time even if I do get sides, i'll just wait hoping for my body to adjust to the drug. Thanks buddy!
@@haircafekevin are live been taking topical minoxidil and have sexual side effects are they permanent
@@malikallen9675 No, minoxidil doesn't cause sexual sides. Something else is causing your problems, possibly a nocebo effect. I'd speak to a doctor.
@@haircafekevin can minoxidil cause any kinda of permanent side effects
Kevin is great and I really enjoy his channel but I have to say most people I know that have taken finasteride have gotten low libido and also told me they felt a lack of drive in general. My brother took it for four months and got off of it because of the side effects. Probably doesn't happen to most people but definitely a good amount at least from what I'm hearing
Hey Kevin, what is your opinion on getting married and having kids? I am 42 and have very little experience with women. I do not want to settle down with any of them just to get sex (which she will withhold and use as leverage against me until I am in my grave). Should I care about passing on my blood lineage? Is that really a big deal?
Get a dog, your grandkids won’t give af about you anyway, you will be forgotten 50 years after you die
Would've been more interesting if they had a group in that study that experienced penile atrophy even on a smaller rat-appropriate dosage.
This is why the results of human studies are often way different than animal studies.
Kevin your the man, I would be honoured if you give me a slap.
Hi Kevin, thanks for all you do, just wondering , since being on finasteride, I've noticed a lot of veins in my penis and scrotum , that I'm sure weren't there before ( it's possible they were and I didn't notice) . Is it normal , or can anyone else relate to this ? Thanks

Plz be aware that your penis might explode
I've been taking finasteride for almost a year now. Hair loss has stopped and have slight regrowth, I do feel energy levels go slightly down and libido slightly down but these symptoms would likely pass if I took 1.25 mg every second day instead of every day. Initially, libido was super high for maybe a month. If you are balding I recommend fin asap, I regret not taking this ten years ago.
Been on it for 2 months sometimes taking 0.25mg or 0.5mg everyday. Roughly 3-4mg a week. I have noticed extreme shedding thus making me wear a beanie all the time on outings and super high increased libido during the initial week then it began to subside to slightly below normal levels. I would go 2-3 days without thinking of the opposite gender. I am 22. I just want to slow down my hair loss without risking the strong side effects that come with the full 1mg dosage everyday because I don’t want to risk growing gyno although I am 15% body fat or lose my sexual drive. Balding sucks but it is what it is.
how long did it take you to see results? (hair loss stop for instance)
@@MrDream-zm1pw probably 4 months for me.
@@extremisttotheextremeantid7554 If youre 22 and already balding its pretty much over. Accept being bald and enjoy your life instead of taking drugs you'll regret just to hang on for a couple years

I have been using finasteride for 10 months and my hair loss is getting worse and worse I have been shedding dramatically during these months. I am getting frustrated.
Hey Kevin just wanted to find out if the film coating around Finasteride tablets are suitable for vegans?
You both inspire me but also reaffirm my neliefs on my chances of love and sex.
Is it true when you stop taking propecia your hair loss will go progress to what it would have been had you not taken it it’s called catch up hair loss. Is there any truth to this

I forgot about The Amazing Atheist lol. But thank you so much for coming back, Kevin! I have to ask: is "Haircafe" a satirization of "Baldcafe?" 😁
You bet and yeah, it is. Although I should stress I have nothing personal against Baldcafe despite our disagreements; He seems like legit good dude.
@@haircafekevin Yeah, he seems like a good dude. I think his advice is best for people whose hair loss is beyond salvaging, & yours is best for people who still have enough hair that's worth saving. As a NW 2, I'm currently on team Kevin/Finasteride. Lol
@@Tyrosine0910 Yeah, as far as the bald acceptance thing goes he is definitely the best.
Hey kevin in you research have you seen anything about finasteride causing a shortness of breath / cough thing? Ive been on and off for the past year really trying to make it work and not be a 24 year old slaphead.
Thanks gonk
No, there isn't any data about that but that sounds serious. I'd speak to an internist and make sure there isn't something else going on.

Could you do a video topic on the treatment combining minoxidil with microneedling ? There are studies showing that the results are 4 times better when compared to minoxidil monotherapy.
Yeah, I plan on it. I made a video about micro needling a while back, probably time I revisit the subject.
hi Kevin hope you see this im on finasteride and trt however donating blood is a must every 16weeks or so due to RBC raised etc my question is I have to stop finasteride 4 weeks previously so thats 12 weeks on 4 off , I know the hair loss docs on YT say a break is fine however whats your stance on this will I be fine from a hair loss prospective taking a month break how much hair will I loose if any doing this as its my only option many thanks
It's fine, it's possible you'll experience some miniaturization but the hair has to go through several cycles before it dies off. Anything you lose you'll be able to get back once you get back on treatment.
Having taken time off before I notice I lose ground after about 5 weeks.
@@haircafekevin fantastic thank you im currently on 1mg x3 a week , would there be any benefit at all to going everyday?
hey, thanks for all the info i have a very important question, does weight training make hair lose ... i hope you make a video to make us clear.
No, weight training only affects the tissues involved and the rise is acute and minor. The increase in androgens is algorithmic, not linear which is why women who lift weights don't get facial hair and deep voices.
Hey Kevin I have a question I got really good results from finasteride 7 months in then I tried ru and minoxidil for two weeks then stopped. Shedded a lot but I started regrowing hair after 3 months. I used Nizoral for bad dandruff around this time and it completely killed my hair again. 6 months after my hair isn’t recovering and it’s really sensitive to different shampoos. I feel like I’m behind baseline from when I started finasteride. Should I just leave my hair alone? or should I get on another treatment sticking to it this time? Thank you
Sounds like a case of hair greed. Just drop the topicals and stick with finasteride. Taking RU/Minoxidil probably Jumpstart the anagen phase causing a shed which made you freak out and stop, a very common mistake.
Also, Nizoral makes the hair look like dried out straw, stick with the 1 percent and use it no more than once per week. You can counter some of the dryness by putting a teaspoon of jojoba oil in your hair and letting it sit for 5 minutes before washing it out.
@@haircafekevin it seems to be retaining at the moment. in your opinion if I stick to the same simple shampoo and take only finasteride has there been cases where hair gains can happen pass 6 months of time. I used RU/Mox for two weeks and later on nizoral once a week for a month but it seems it did permanent damage 6 months later since noticing minimal hair growth at the moment. Thank you for your reply.
Thumbnails are 10/10 btw
Is it possible that 5AR inhibitors can make you gay or increase feminine tendencies? When you think about it, significantly lowering DHT is something MTF people do to transition. While watching porn the other day, I noticed that I focused on the guy for a millisecond instead of the girl. I'm afraid that lowering my systemic DHT may have caused this.
Thoughts?
go to sleep
I think they think they shrunk because of lower blood flow not actual shrinkage
Nice to have you back mann. Im vegan too, and isent it wrong to use these drugs as we dont harm animals? Also a funny question for you: would you be a bold vegan or non vegan with full head of hair?Would love to see you making a go vegan vid some day and help people do the right thing. People are sleep walking in this horribel world today. The way you talk and put information out there is very good so you should also be making videos about helping animals as you helping poor men with alopecia, myself including😂 have a nice day Mann
Thanks man, I have made several "what I eat in a day as a vegan videos."
Would much rather be a bald vegan than a non vegan with hair. I do not believe in harming others for my personal benefit which is why I also reject health arguments behind veganism. Violence doesn't suddenly become acceptable just because I benefit from it.
As for the drugs I use. Finasteride had a trivial amount of lactose and I mean beyond trivial. You'd need to consume about 12000 pills to equal an 8 Oz glass of milk. Vegans probably consume more than that from cross contamination.
Amazing Kevin! I have great respect for you and i know you are a good guy that wants to help others, so dont care about nasty comments. What you say about not hurting other for your own benifits provs that you are the real deal. People laught and make fun of me for beang vegan every week, but I laugt of there ignorance every f*** day. Hope they wake up one day. I dont want to lose my hair, but I would always be happy because i on the side of justices. Take care my man;)

Can you make a video discussing scalp inflammation, and fibrosis/calcification?
Hey, wanted to ask if dht Blockers inhibit your height growth even if im 22 already if there were a little potential that im growing 1 or 2 centimeters. I just want to know of im potentially throwing that away even if its not that likeable that i could inhibit it or is there 0% effect on height growth ?
Kevin do you think Stemoxydine gains are retained even after the bottle is finished? I use it to speed up growth results of minoxidil/finasteride, it gave me a noticeable boost in growing new hairs but I don't think I will buy it again. Also I recommand it for those who are impatients (especially if shedding is hard)
Yeah, I do but only in the presence of another growth stimulant like minoxidil even though minoxidil works quite a bit differently. That's a good thing though since it means they can be stacked.
Its gains are noticeable but minor, only about 4000 or so new hairs even though scalps can have 150 thousand or more hairs, not bad but definitely not a necessary compound in a hair loss stack.
@@haircafekevin Yes I agree. Minoxidil is impossible to drop/replace unfortunately. Oral minoxidil would be great if the sides were not as brutal. Anyway, french dermatologists willing to give prescriptions for this are really rare. Some of them are even afraid of finasteride lol
Kevin thank you for your content. I’m 40 is Finasteride safe to start?
Hey Kevin. Ever thought of doing a "reaction" video where you comb through PFS forums/youtube videos and debunk them?
Yeah, I have. I have to be careful though because they really really hate me and tried to doxx me, it got so bad even the moderator of the PFS forums defended me.
@@haircafekevin Gotcha, gotta stay safe in this technological age. All the best.
hahahha i love your passive aggressive sass. It's fucking brilliant
In all seriousness, I’m sure finasteride has reduced my penis size slightly. Must be high estrogen? Because everytime I take a break it’s almost like it grows again 😂 but when I’m taking fin it ‘shrinks’ again - I’ve always wondered why this is. Any ideas how I can eliminate estrogen/free T turning into est to avoid this issue?
Kevin doesn’t know what he’s talking about I promise u. He says it doesn’t exist because the evidence is “not convincing”
Yes dht makes you harder and agressive and attack life with more viggour its not trash
