How To Succeed with Your Regimen
Tip #1- Start a hair loss treatment journal.
Record exactly what products you are using, how much, how often, everything. Be as scientific as possible in your entries. Some people are using 5 or more products simultaneously, and frequently changing their regimen. Without a journal, it’s hard to keep track of what’s working.
Tip #2- Take pictures to document your treatment.
Judging how much hair you have over time is extremely difficult. Regularly taking pictures of your head can be very helpful in judging which treatments are working and which aren’t. Digital cameras make this process is easier than ever. For best results, take pictures from the same angle in the same lighting. If you feel comfortable, ask someone to help. If not, it is possible to take good pictures on your own.
Tip #3- Use Nizoral anti-fungal shampoo twice a week.
I mention this product a few times throughout our site, but for good reason. It is a cheap and effective way to increase the effectiveness of other treatments you are using. The patients from the study that proved Rogaine to be an effective treatment for hair loss all used Nizoral throughout the course of the study.
Tip #4- Effective treatment takes dedication.
Many hair loss products take 3 months or even longer to show results. Rogaine especially needs to be applied on a very regular basis. Don’t get discouraged. People occasionally have to try a few different options before they find something that works. Other people may never be able to effectively treat their condition. However, there are other viable options available. Hair transplant surgery works extremely well in many cases. Hairpieces have vastly improved in recent years. Some toupees and wigs are so realistic you would never notice them. Some men will choose the look of a shaved head. Celebrities such as Michael Jordan and Andre Agassi both are sufferers of early hair loss.
