Going Bald

Coffee is a good Dihydrotestosterone blocker when applied topically.  Applying it on the scalp has helped retain and regrow hair.  A google search should provide the info (that's where I first read about it)

I saw a guy at a concert a few weeks ago who had the most...creative combover I've ever seen. Actually, it didn't look half bad. It was very well done.

What did it look like? What made it different from your average combover?

I have also read about copper peptides helping as well, but I do not know how these alternatives compare to finasteride.  Are there any scientific studies backing up these claims?

Hard to explain, but it wasn't your typical one-side-to-the-other combover with six lonely strands covering several acres of scalp. He had combed up some hair, quite a substantial amount, from the back as well as the side. He had quite reasonable coverage, and it didn't look pathetic or stupid. It might sound ugly, but it was very artfully done, perhaps by a hairdresser. First combover that ever impressed me.
