From experience of trial and error with many products, I found the only product that made my hair grow back and continue to grow was Rogaine (www.rogaine.com). The only bad thing about this product is you need to use twice a day everyday! Ugh!
I definetely suggest you to go see a dermatologist first. Your hair loss may not be caused by Alopecia (thininning hair), but maybe form a lack of a vitamin, for example Iron. The pattern of how you are thinning is a sure tale sign of what the reason is.
Is your hair falling out in clumps, like patches…or is your hairline creeping back?
Best of Luck!

you can have your thyroid tested, if thats ok , its probably genetic and you would have to go with transplants.

you can try rogaine or kgf serum. THose are the only 2 products that help.

You could start there. Most likely it is not a treatable type of hair loss. Some types of treatable are those caused by certain scalp disorders and even those are not usually reversable but can be maintained or slowed down. Eczema and Psoriasis are two of these conditions and if caught early before considerable hair loss results it can help to retain hair longer. I hear Nioxin works from clients of mine, and I don’t know how much of that is true, and how much is in the clients mind. I never noticed a real difference. However, hair replacement does work but it is extremely costly. Contrary to popular belief, women don’t really mind a man with hair loss if he styles it nicely. Look to men like Bruce Willis for inspiration. He isn’t that hot, but he pulls it off and not just because of his money. He has an awesome personality !

Save your money. Take apple cider vinegar, apply it to a cotton ball and dab the spots that are growing bald. I know someone who was bald on the top and acv grew hair back the way it should be. ACV has 93 vitamins and minerals. It may be taken internally to keep hair from breakage. Take 2 tbls. of acv in a glass of water 2-3 x day or if dieting, before a meal. Read the apple cider vinegar cures website. You may use it for a hair rinse too. It takes about a month to see a change. Do not give up. Give ACV a try.
