HA RECUPERATO I CAPELLI IN 3 MESI - la storia di Simone
Main summary
Key takeaways
Key wellness / self-care / productivity takeaways (hair loss)
-
Make a decisive plan (don’t stay stuck)
- Simone says he suffered most while hoping others would stop commenting or while not choosing a direction.
- His “either/or” framework:
- Shave (if you accept the situation)
- Start treatment (if you want to fight androgenetic alopecia)
- Core idea: once you choose, commit—avoid prolonged “limbo” with partial solutions.
-
Protect your mental health by reducing daily rumination
- When his hair loss became severe, it consumed his attention and even affected social/romantic life (avoiding girls, withdrawing).
- After improvement, he felt:
- mental pressure lifted
- more ability to think about other aspects of life
- Self-care technique implied: treat hair loss as a “system problem” (psychological impact + action plan), not just an appearance problem.
-
Be careful with social feedback—don’t normalize public shaming
- He experienced bullying and comments that deepened his inability to accept himself.
- He advises others:
- don’t tease or publicly shame someone losing hair
- recognize the person likely suffers privately every day
-
Evidence-based approach: educate yourself before spending money
- He emphasizes learning the mechanism (DHT-driven miniaturization) and not buying random “hair miracle” products.
- He criticizes ineffective, expensive trial-and-error (including hairdresser-provided vials) when the underlying driver isn’t addressed.
-
Stepwise treatment mindset (don’t expect instant results)
- He highlights that:
- minoxidil can take time (hair cycle ~3 months)
- finasteride also requires patience
- He used a “trial window” approach:
- commit for a defined period (e.g., finishing the box / ~3 months)
- reassess
- stop if there’s no substantial change
- He highlights that:
-
Address contributing factors that can worsen hair quality
- He ran bloodwork and treated vitamin D and iron deficiencies (associated with worse hair shedding/quality via telogen effluvium).
- Strategy:
- test → supplement only when deficient (instead of guessing)
-
Medication strategy: DHT suppression is the main lever
- His view: for androgenetic alopecia, products like vials/shampoos/vitamins are supportive at best unless DHT is suppressed.
- He used:
- Minoxidil (started Aug 1, 2025)
- Finasteride 1 mg/day (started Sep 1, 2025)
- He discusses possibly using dutasteride (“diutasteride”) but stresses that it should be based on informed discussion with a doctor.
-
Use the right professionals
- He recommends consulting a dermatologist specializing in trichology and evaluating a combination approach (oral therapy + topical/galenic formulations).
- He was frustrated by a doctor who refused dutasteride, suggesting it indicated gaps in knowledge or differences in prescribing norms.
-
Be realistic about transplants
- He argues that without DHT suppression (finasteride/dutasteride), transplants can become a “palliative” and may lead to ongoing damage or repeated procedures.
- He notes that in his own case, if he proceeds, it would be after a longer baseline treatment period to see full results.
