I use the Dr. Pen off of Amazon.



The way I do it is I wet my hair, and use a comb to part my hair every .75 inches or so, starting on one side of my head. Then I just go front to back or back to front. I basically dab the pen up and down as I move it, I don't drag it. I have not had any hair break or anything, and I ran my fingers through my hair to make sure. I have done it myself and have had someone do it for me. The needles are very thin but you still feel it. Feels like getting a tattoo. The most painful parts are in the front of the scalp. It only takes me about 15 minutes or less.
So, I'm assuming what the mr. Pen does is stimulate hair follicles. Like that electric baseball cap that's advertised on TV commercials?

1 of the old school hair transplant surgeons who since retired but who taught his student, and the student was the one who did a hair transplant on me-- said those electric hair follicle stimulators were a scam.

that may be erroenous though. i will have to study microneedling, it just I don't want to (I fear) damage the pores on my head on accident.
