Nioxin has been known to help people grow their hair back, but I'm not quite there yet. My uncle has been using it since he was 30. He is now almost 50 and has thick, lush hair (even for a Ukrainian!)
So Nioxin does work eh?

I am using Proscar. It has 5 mg of Finasteride while Propecia only has 1 mg.

However, you only take 1/4 pill of Proscar and you take the whole Propecia pill. So in the end you get 0.25 mg more when you take Proscar.

I have thought about Nioxin, but the price scared me off. I am wondering if I should get it now.
