Low Collagen = BALDING

JFL if you think collagen theory isn't legit

Collagen is stored in the hair and makes it thicker, and less likely to fall out due to DHT Choking

5 Evidence-Based Ways Collagen May Improve Your Hair

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body and offers a variety of health benefits. Here are 5 evidence-based ways that collagen may improve your hair.

The ultimate norwood routine is:

Dht Blocker - Finasteride

Hair reinforcer/thickener - Collagen Supplements

Active Grower - Dermaroller / (((minoxidil))) (which will decrease collagen and make your hair weaker anyway so not recommended)

Microneedling is good. It's a form of microautophagy stimulating growth through infliction via a controlled stressor/aggressor, creating damage that needs to be repaired. PGE2 is a factor involved in repair. Not the main one, but just one of many. Microneedling actually inhibits PGE2 release and promotes PGD2 release which is a factor that's expressed when inflammation/damage occurs. Peppermint oil grows hair too but also inhibits PGE2. Even Niacin and PQQ promote PGD2. PGD2 isn't the factor causing the damage itself; it's just recruited for use when the damage happens. So I wouldn't ever recommend applying Peppermint Oil after Microneedling.

PGD2/PGE2 work differently from person to person; and I kind of know why, but it's very complicated. @SquareChinOrDeath noticed increased hair growth when inhibiting PGD2 with Setipiprant. But I notice no hairloss when causing the release of PGD2 through use of Peppermint Oil, PQQ, Niacin and other things.

PGD2/PGE2 are Prostaglandin factors. The Prostaglandin receptor is a G-protien Coupled Receptor. It's a receptor where agonism/antagonism doesn't create universal/concrete outcomes in everyone. It varies from person to person.

The compound binds to the Prostaglandin receptor; then only after it binds, it recruits a "Second Messenger Molecule" which will send a message to the target either through the cAMP or Phosphatadylinositol pathways.

What the Message and Target(s) are seem pretty unpredictable and vary from person to person.

GHK-cu protects you against UV ray damage anyways. It's awesome.
