9 weeks

Another week pull free.  Not much regrowth, but I am trying something new.  I bought the generic version of Rogaine at Target.  I have been applying it twice a day.  It is really oily and messy.  It does stop any urge to pull my hair because the hair texture is now slippery.  When I touch my hair my fingers get covered in the oil, so I cant touch my hair.  That is really good, but it is giving me bad headaches.  Im trying to tolerate them, but I don't know how much longer I can.  Maybe I'm applying to much, but its not really easy to apply this stuff so a lot comes out of the dropper. My scalp is also really itchy.  So its really making things a bit difficult.  Hope I can continue the entire 1 month supply.  I stopped using the folligen for a couple of weeks because I want to color my hair.  You need to stop using the folligen 2 weeks before coloring.  I have been taking the vitamins for 2 1/2 months now, but I dont think they are making much of a difference.  I can clearly see how much my hair has grown since I last colored it and that was 3 months ago.  My hair has grown almost 2 inches, and thats what it would have grown without any vitamins.  I cannot stop taking the vitamins because the last time I stopped I started pulling again.  I dont think the vitamins have made any difference in the growth of the bald spots because they just have little sparse hairs growing.  Most of the hair growing in them is white and really fuzzy.  I read so many good reviews of these vitamins but I have not seen much improvement in my hair.  Though I do see an increase in the growth of the hair on my legs and under my arms.  I have to shave a lot more.
