I have been using [Minoxidil](https://www.amazon.com/Kirkland-Signature-Minoxidil-2-11oz-Pound/dp/B007Z75H0Y/ref=sr_1_6_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1475165385&sr=1-6&keywords=minoxidil) for a year and a half. It’s cheaper than Rogaine and is just as effective. It didn’t spark too much re-growth, but it did pretty much stop loss of hair from happening any further which is what I wanted. Remember that with receding hair lines you won’t get that hair back once it is gone unless you have transplants done. So if that is what you’re seeing, and you want to keep it, start treating it ASAP. For bald spots on the back of your head Rogaine/Minoxidil/etc. will help the hair re-grow but it will take a few months and you absolutely have to commit to applying it everyday. Once you stop applying it your hair will turn into paratroopers within a couple weeks and start bailing out at an alarming rate. ---

Coming to age thread of NYSpeed history… My boss just got that hair transplant thing done and his hair is coming back nicely…My point of view is im married my wife doesn’t care I will let my hair do what it wants for now. If the hair transplant stuff came down in cost I would consider it but its really not a priority based on cost at this point. ---

I agree, if I went bald, hey, it’s out of my control and my morning routine just got a lot easier/less expensive… ---

Mine has been thinning out quite a bit the past 5 years. I’ve got to the same girl for haircuts since college so lately I’ve been joking with her that she needs to start giving me a discount. I’m not doing shit about it. ---
