HairAgain: Hair Loss Tracker

HairAgain is a hair loss tracker for the treatment you are already on. Log minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride or whatever your routine is, get a quiet reminder on the days it is due, and line up a set of progress photos every month so you can judge it for yourself. Call it hair loss, hair fall or thinning: the method is the same. WHY A GALLERY FULL OF SELFIES PROVES NOTHING Different light one month, a different angle the next. Scroll back six months and you still cannot tell whether the minoxidil did anything. Hair moves slowly, and photos only mean something when they are taken the same way. LINE UP EVERY PROGRESS PHOTO Open the camera and your last photo is already on screen as a faint ghost. Move until your hairline sits where it sat last month, then shoot. Crown, hairline, left and right temple, plus more angles if you want them, each with its own framing guide. A full set takes about a minute, and that alignment is what turns a gallery into a before and after you can read. START FROM A PHOTO YOU ALREADY HAVE Most people start tracking after the first dose, not before. Import an older photo, pick the date it was taken, and it becomes your before, so your first comparison is ready on day one. TRACK YOUR WHOLE HAIR LOSS REGIMEN Finasteride, minoxidil (topical or oral), dutasteride, ketoconazole shampoo, microneedling with a dermaroller, a laser cap, biotin and other supplements, or anything you add yourself. Set the days and times each one is due, daily, twice a day, every other day or fixed weekdays, then check it off in seconds. REMINDERS, NO GUILT A quiet notification at the times you choose, for whatever is due then. Miss a day and the record just says so. There is no streak to break and nothing turns red. When a photo set comes due, the Today screen says so the next time you open the app. COMPARE ANY TWO MONTHS Drag the slider between two sets and whatever changed is right there, in your own photos, each side with its date and the regimen you were on. Save that before and after to your gallery, with or without the watermark, and share it if you want to. LOG YOUR SHEDDING If you want to, log how much you shed each day and see your own levels over the last two weeks. For topical minoxidil, the American Academy of Dermatology says a temporary increase in hair loss can happen in the first two to eight weeks. WHERE THE INFORMATION COMES FROM The app links its treatment and health information to named publishers, MedlinePlus and the American Academy of Dermatology among them. Tap through and check it yourself. FOR ANY KIND OF HAIR LOSS Androgenetic alopecia, male or female pattern. A receding hairline, or thinning at the temples. A crown that is opening up. Regrowth after a hair transplant. Postpartum or diffuse shedding you cannot quite pin down. If you and a doctor have picked a treatment, HairAgain keeps the record of it. COMMON QUESTIONS Do I need to shave my head? No. Same parting, same angle, that is enough. What if I miss a month? Take the next set when you can. Nothing is lost. Can I show this to my dermatologist? Yes. Save a before and after and bring it to the appointment. Is it only for men? No. The photos and the regimen list work the same either way. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Your photos sit in your own account, not on a feed. They are never sold and never used to train models. Delete your account from inside the app and everything goes with it. WHAT IT COSTS A free month to start, then a yearly or monthly subscription. Your local price is shown before anything is charged, and the free month is one per store account. Cancel any time in Google Play. HairAgain is a hair loss tracker and a companion to the treatment you and your doctor chose. It does not diagnose, prescribe, or invent a density score from a photo.
