well i started using minoxidil about a week ago and the only result i have noticed is PEELING. ick. i've pulled for about 15 years so a lot of my hair isnt growing back. i was pull-free for about 8 months and my hair was still pretty thin in my favorite spots. ive read all the posts on regrowth and tried biotin, scalp massages etc...i finally just shaved off my hair haha i do want to grow it out again though if luvox helps with the urges.

anyone else used minoxidil with success? did you lose hair when you stopped??
