As far as I know...nothing can stop the front. Sorry.

So the treatment is the same but the regrowth results are better for the crown.
ah i see so i am ****ed huh? b/c it is just a widow's peak thing..Quote:

is there anything other than propecia?? but finasteride will not help hairloss at the widows peak period right?Quote:

a couple of other treatments that have shown results are topical spironolactone solutions, proxiphen-N and revivogen.
where andhow do i get that?Quote:

cool thanx...so basically finasteride is a waste for me.. nixoral shampoo maybe?? you apply that all over your head so wouldnt that help better than fina??Quote:

I use nizoral and I have had 0 hairloss. Nizoral makes my hair grow like crazy and I have a window's peak also. So my hair does look like it recedes sometimes when I let it grow(obviously since I have window's peak the middle grows farther out then the rest). Don't worry about it bro, I like mine, chicks dig it on a 6'2 240lb guy :) btw, while ON I tried to minimize haircuts so I can watch my hair(or make sure I still have it and its not falling out).
