Minoxidil These include branded versions usually in minoxidil 2% and minoxidil 5% forms, as well as generic minoxidil (which tend to be lower in cost) and usually vary from 2% to 6%. General medical opinion is that women should not use Minoxidil stronger than 2% concentration. Some women do buy generic minoxidil in concentrations higher than 2%. The thing to remember here is that there is an increased risk of facial hair growth the higher the concentration. So, if you are considering doing this, start at a low concentration and gradually build up. Also, as always, only do this under the supervision of your medical practitioner.  

Toupees, Wigs and Systems Some are very good but can be unnecessarily expensive. Many retailers simply buy in from a wholesaler and put on very large mark ups. Bear in mind with any form of toupee system (whatever the retailer calls it) if it is attached by means of anchoring to your existing hair, you will probably need to keep going back for servicing - sometimes even just to wash your hair. Q) Do hair transplants really work? A) Yes they do. In fact modern techniques performed by skilled specialists give extremely natural results. However, don’t expect too much. How much hair you gain depends upon how much donor hair you have available. Also, the surgeon should ensure that there is a sufficient reserve of donor hair to keep things looking natural should you lose more hair in the future.
