I was pretty pumped thinking that maybe the next progress photos would show some significant gains.
Sadly, it did not.
So some lessons I have learned since the previous update. I am still using the same routine when it comes to medication, but my micro-needle every day theory ended up doing more harm than good. It wasn't anything catastrophic like my scalp getting infected, it just seemed to stop my hair growth.
Perhaps I was damaging the hair follicles too often or maybe the hair itself.
But since I am writing this backwards, I have some good news that in my future update which will catch us up to the current day. I have some fresh lessons which actually gave us results, I promise.
And I really have to hand it to OpenAI and their ChatGPT, it helped guide me in my research and discovery, Instead of having to sift through chats, posts, threads, and all that to search for legit information.
Since my last update, I have change the micro-needling to just once a week using a longer needle length. I also changed my diet as I realized I was severely under eating when it came to protein, I was using AI to track what I ate and to estimate what I was putting in my body, and the things I assumed were good enough were actually just full of empty calories. So I was just getting heavier while not adding any protein to my body, and when I tried to lean out I was basically just starving myself which cut down those proteins even more. Long story short, I am eating now more than ever but boring foods like Greek yogurt, eggs, and cottage cheese.
Since our hairs are made of protein, a healthy supply of it should make it want to grow like lush grass... in theory.
