Weekly summary - 62nd week

Do you find that your miniature hair or baby hair grow darker or in a bigger size?I mean after you doing your treatment either by Propecia or Minoxidil?
No?
I have some mix result for my left side frontal. Some of the miniature hair grows in a darker color than before. I suspect some is the hair that falls before but it grow it back. However, it is just partially of my left frontal, the M shape zone has some more darker baby hair. Right side not really notice any changes till now.
However, hair falls has been consistent this recent months. So as my libido. The worry is the crown of my hair, which I notice not become thicker but thinner. I find it is harder and harder to hide my weakness of my hairline or bald spot. Sigh!

Weekly summary - 61st week

While I normally report my hair loss condition weekly here, and also sometimes the side effect of Propecia that haunt me, I would like to share some of the haircare products.
On Sunday I saw in newspaper of this product, and organic haircare product call Pegaga Scalp Cleansing treatment. It is one of the organic haircare and skincare products by Paul Penders. What surprise me, and may be you is this Pegaga Sclap Cleansing Treatment is the product the research center set up by Paul Penders in Langkawi Island.
Pegaga Scalp Cleansing Treatment

Beautiful hair starts with a healthy scalp! Pegaga Scalp Cleansing Treatment naturally treats irritated and flaking scalps. Pegaga (traditionally known as “Miracle Hero of the Rainforest”) and tea-tree oil both possess remarkable antiseptic and antibacterial qualities to deep-cleanse and revitalize the scalp. Helps control itching and eliminates flaking.

Ingredients

Levens ESSENTIE Gold™,(aqua, angelica, arnica, calendula, chamomile, elderflower, ginger, ginseng root, honeysuckle, hops, horsetail, juniper, lavender, lemon balm, nettle, pegaga, peppermint, rosemary, sage, st.john’s wort, turmeric, witch hazel, yarrow) aloe vera extract, natural emulsifiers from olive oil, kukui-nut oil, pegaga extract, glycerin, jojoba oil, soybean oil, vitamin C, tea tree essential oil, sorbic acid, grapefruit extract, tocopherol (1700iu vitamin E), electro-colloidal gold, electro-colloidal silver( minerals that actively and naturally sustain healthy skin).

The price may be a little bit high, at USD 19.75 for 5fl.oz or 130ml. You can buy in online and I doubt whether we can actually buy the Paul Penders product in local store. This product is famous in US, but not so familiar to Malaysian. It may help a bit for MPB victim like us, but I don't expect much. You can try and tell me your experience if you really go for a trial.

Hair loss and libido are normal for the past few weeks. But again, I don't see much progress in term of hair regrowth. This is what worried me.

Weekly summary - 60th week

It is the 60th week in Propecia medication and I would consider it as a milestone.
Sometimes I really feel that my fair condition has not much improve due to most unhealthy hair has dropped, my follicle in the rest cycle at the moment so I can not see new hair grow. It may be true. More importantly, I don't want to give up yet.
Last week, in a radio station, a hair consultant was interviewed. I ma not sure her comment was reflects the truth. She said, when your hair falls, you can know the condition of your hair by looking at the root of your hair. If you see there is a white thingy on the root of your hair, your follicle is consider healthy. Else, your hair should be unhealthy. Her theory is that, the white thingy is actually the nutrient of your hair.
I do find that most of my hair got this white thingy but I all thr time I thought it is my dandruff that on my scalp and when the hair falls, the dandruff is on the root of my hair. How was you guys condition?

I just add on the followers widget on my blog. Please click one it. Tell me more of your hair ocndition if you are in Propecia or fighting with baldness like me.
