I really didn't want to go the medicine route years back. Like OP Im a guy who always kept it long. I decided to give the basic regimen a try and went with a keeps like service because dermatologists are by far the worst doctors I've had to work with.
And although it thinned, the thinning totally stalled, to a point where it's a little noticable but on a good day isn't at all.
I haven't cut my hair in years and despite it being annoying to take care of sometimes, I get to look in the mirror and see the version of myself that I like to see which makes the little bit of medication worth it imo.
I always hated the "just shave it and own it, bro" attitude because damn my hair is part of my identity, I love having it. I'll put some effort into keeping it.
