Interestingly, finasteride can be effective even at a concentration of 0.005% (3 mg in 60 ml), without simultaneously blocking DHT in the body (and thus causing no systemic side effects), while still maintaining decent efficacy. Where does this claim come from? In the study mentioned below, finasteride was applied at the above concentration twice daily, 1 ml each time, for 16 months. 73% of participants noticed improvement, whereas in the placebo group, 70% observed no effects at all. It's also possible to use a 0.01% concentration—1 ml once daily—and achieve similar results.
Pros? You can see significant benefits without risking side effects.
Cons? If your hair loss is progressing rapidly, this is almost certainly insufficient to halt it effectively.
