Short Talk:
The same mischevious people that collaborated on the Freeze KL "flashmob" project has returned with the Read while Waiting Project.
What's gonna happen? This Saturday 23rd August at KL Sentral, whilst millions of random Malaysians are doing their commuting, one thousand people will suddenly stop what they're doing and pick up a book to read at EXACTLY 3PM. The idea is to confuse those who are not in the know as to why everyone is suddenly reading at the same time. Meanwhile a hidden camera will record their reaction and the results uploaded onto Youtube.
Sounds fun? Wanna join? Watch the video right here.
Herbal Medicine For Hair Growth
Despite my apparent young age, I unfortunately have an embarrassing hair loss crisis.

It's difficult to hide my shame every time I go to my hairdresser, only to have him shake his head and tell me, "Kenny, your hair is getting less and less. What's going on? You're only 26!"
It's not like I didn't try to find a cure. I bought a tonic solution that I have to rub into my head every night, but I got lazy after applying it for a few months.

Then I went to consult a doctor about this.
The doctor, who thinks I'm a primary school student, told me that I have too much male testosterones, which is causing of my hair loss.
Apparently, being too much of a man is a bad thing.

He also got me on this pill called Propecia. Some of my hair grew back after taking them continuously for about a year, but I stopped because each month's supply costs me a ridiculous RM180, and I reckon RM180 could be spent on better things than growing hair.
Not long after I stopped Propecia, my hair stopped growing along with it.

So I was in Bangkok this past weekend when I spotted this signage at a market. Beneath a whole bunch of Thai alphabets, it says in English "HERBAL MEDICINE - HAIR GROWTH".
Interesting. It's definitely something worth trying.
Then I took a peek inside the shop, and saw this photo of the inventor.

This, my friend, is what happens when you have a taste of your own medicine and it's TOO BLOODY EFFECTIVE.

Im losing hair too... help

Propecia is really good when it comes to controlling hair loss.
Do try hair loss specific shampoos as well.
Another traditional alternative (tho i tink it's a waste) is to rub brandy onto your scalp and (this is embarassing) wear a shower cap, keep it on for about 30 min or so before washing off.
I know it supposedly helps hair growth and kills kutus.
Did u try the thai herbal solution then?
Is the LV bag for sale too?

How u got into the olympian category is really a mystery cos' u came to mind first, so do drop by & leave me a comment. I'll be honored to no end. Sir, if there're any issues about the pic pls feel free to let me know & i'll remove straightaway but i was hoping u'd show some great sense of humour you're famous for.

Kenny, I have the same problem. All you can do is to minimise hairloss by using the right shampoo. L'occitane shampoo works really well. There's one shop in the Spring. Give it a try. (http://kennethisaac.blogspot.com/2008/03/hair-loss-solution.html)

Hi...
As far as I know, currently the most efficient method is minoxidil + propecia.
For minor hair loss, use minoxidil (liquid that apply to your hair twice daily. I think around RM70 for one month usage). Minoxidil is a generic brand name. Famous brand for minoxidil is Rogaine (very expensive) or Kirkland etc
For serious hair loss, use propecia. It's a controlled medic, so u have to buy from pharmacy.. There are side effects...
Try to search in Lelong.com.my or ebay.com.my for cheaper price

Minoxidil + propecia both approved by US FDA for control hair loss.
Propecia and Proscar has the same ingredient. Proscar has higher finasteride content. It is for treating BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia). ***U can buy Proscar and divide the pill yourself... :p***
Many fake drugs in the market. Try to get presciption from your doctor and order it from MSD in bulk and u will get discount (something like buy 20 boxes get 4 boxes free). I shared it with my buddies.
Anyway, I stopped taking it after i get married. :p

Hey Kenny, I loved your post! That last photo was hilarious. Although, the fake Louis Vuitton bag in the photo made me suspicious...if the Louis is fake, then so is the hair!

hey hey. I remember I was helping someone to survey the pharmacy about hair loss product .. and if Im not wrong, the drug u take have a high chances of causing ED. so it isnt very good.
but .. if u r really keen about ur hair loss, u can try this product called Rogaine which has really good reviews the last I read. but quite exp lor ..about 200+
but I think can use 3 months ..
kinda forget dy .. but u can go google, forums or pharmacy check it out la

aiyo...Propecia for RM180/box??? crazyyly expensive..can get from me cheaper larrr :)
Kuching pharmacies/clinic really good ah...can make good money not like us in KL need to undercut each other!!!
Finasteride 5mg or Brand name Proscar was actually developed for treatment of BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia) and one of the common s/e is hirsutism or excessive hair growth. Thus, MSD found a cure for male pattern baldness and out came propecia at 1mg.
The best combi is to take propecia once daily, apply your hair with minoxidil 5% lotion and use Pregaine Frequent Use Shampoo..this combination won't cost you a bomb if you compared with price they charge at hair treatment centres outside.
I am not suppose to advertise my pharmacy here but if any of you need any simple advice you can drop me a mail :)cheers

The master of the hairgrowing picture look like a Hong Kong movie actor, Anthony Wong Chau Sang.. Hmmm He was one of the actor in the movie called "Internal Affair" and the recent one "The Mummy 3" Anyway, Hair loss is pretty tough to deal with and basically there is no cure for it if due to genetic... Best way is still hair implant...

You used to be so naturally funny XD...imho you shouldn't try think about how funny something can be on your blog all the time. It's getting really forced.
Anywayz a good diet is really important for hair. Natural's always better than pills so eat lots of fruits, nuts and veggies for vitamin B, C, biotin, zinc and magnesium.
Posted by: Anon at 24 August 2008 11:28 AM | Link to comment
woww... I see the comments from a few of fellow pharmacists. Hehe!
RM 180 is expensive for Propecia. As suggested by most, it's generally cheaper to split Proscar 5mg pills into 4 portions. Then again, we worry about the actual amount of drug retained in each quarters to remain effective.
Well, there is a chinese herb that has been researched and certain findings do show it helps for hair growth - Shou Wu. Not sure if u should try other questionable herbs though.
Oh, and whatever treatment you have decided to adhere, maybe you can consider supplementing zinc and vitamin E. Both helps too.

I am using Rogaine twice daily and taking Procerin as well. Procerin is a herbal medicine with Saw Palmetto as its active ingredient. Been using both for around six months now. Initially when I started Procerin, I experienced a lot more hair loss. But now it's much less. Can't be sure whether it is Rogaine or the Procerin working or the combination of both that is effective. Wanted to try Propecia but was put off by the side effects i.e. loss of sex drive(which happens a lot more than what the producers claim). Here's the thing, all the products mentioned work by inhibiting DHT (which is a by-product of testosterone or something like that). DHT/testosterone is linked with the male sex drive and muscle building. SO when you use Procerin or Propecia to inhibit DHT, it will inevitable lower your sex drive though some suffer more from the side effects than others. Rogaine works differently as it is a solution that is applied directly on the scalp so it doesn't affect your DHT levels. I do gym regularly even before I started on Procerin. I did notice that after taking Procerin for months, my muscle building is less effective. But that is to be expected as you need testosterone to build muscle and to stay lean but when you take Procerin or Propecia it lessens the effectiveness of testosterone. And I have experienced a lower sex drive(don't get me wrong, I still get lots of action and wank everyday, but I'm just not as horny as before) even with just using the herbal medicine. That's why I'm reluctant to try Propecia.
That is just my personal journey/experience with hair loss. Good luck to the rest.

My hairdresser was telling one of my friends to squeeze aloe vera leaves and rub the insides on your scalp and leave for 15m before washing your hair. It's cost-effective! Buy an aloe plant or two and you'll have more than you need.
