  Just buy generic on Amazon or whatever. It does take a good amount of time before you see results. I’ve been doing it for a year and have considerably more facial hair now than before, but it was 3-6 months before I saw any difference

    Well here’s hoping generic is available here in Canada on something not Amazon. I live on an Island so things are a bit of a bitch getting delivered.

    So it took the time for you to actually grow hair before seeing it?

      It works by increasing blood flow to the area that you apply the medicine to. As the blood flow increases it slowly starts to simulate hair growth in previously dormant hair follicles, but it’s a slow process. At about 3 months I started to notice new small fine new hairs coming in. At 6 months those small hairs had grown into longer, larger hairs, and at the same time new small fine hairs were forming underneath them. At a year, most of the patches that had no hair in them before now have a pretty decent amount of hair and you can’t really tell they used to be completely bare. It’s a long process
