I’m planning to send hair sample to TEI however applied indigo last week. Catherine told me pubic hair is good too. However from various post, I’m a bit confused on that. What do you guys think? Has anyone tried pubic hair and is “happy or not happy” with the results from taking their suggested supplements? Please chime in!!

I saved hair from 4 years ago, when I first noticably lost hair.
I thought I'd save it incase it needed to be analyzed later. It moved 3 aparments... and even 2800km (thrown randomly in a suitcase/storage).
(that's fucked up, I know). That's gone now, I threw it.
But, what would that hair test say? Original state? That was pre-adderall - hair became all jaggy, like I was electrocuted. -From wavy, and possibly on drugs...
-to jaggy, straight, wavy but finer.... Looked more disheveled than usual for weeks.
-after lamotrigine, finer, and possibly only straight, not really wavy at all.
-Anyone's hair change texture several times in 20's?
-They seemed like Effluviums (but didn't, or mostly didn't grow back).
-I wonder what the hair tests would reveal at those points.
-Impossible to know now.................................................
-Fast oxidizers, more likely to get TE?
-I had so much hair I could use eyebrow or eyelash hair... no more. Now normal-ish male hair.
-An old man, I became.
-It's true... all those hair are kind of different. Chest hair vs say neck hair, vs scalp hair, etc.
-The same person, regardless of the sampled hair. Only the texture and the location changes. Depends how you cut it too.
-Remember, you control your destiny.
-You're cutting your hair and cutting away weakness, and in that... you shall find freedom.
-The hair changes, but the person remains the same.

Why not a back hair, on the TEI form it has a box: other, you can cut even your ear hair. Its like buying a car, quiet a decision to make. I always sent my head hair.
Don’t know why not leg or back hair. Just going by what Catherine shared as “options”:)

Maybe it's rate of hair growth. Maybe toxicities only show in longer-term. Hence, why scalp hair may be preferred to than say facial hair or body hair.
For manscapers, chest and whatever else may be 2-6 or so days, but face like 1-2 days, and haircuts like 3-6 weeks. It depends person-to-person.

EDIT:
Maybe it is the RATE, but opposite of that way. Hair on scalp may grow the fastest (I think IRC reading that it does).
It's just groomed the slowest.... bc people want hair (scalp hair).

I think I heard somewhere that in pubic hair some specific minerals could be higher. Dont remember which ones though. And I think it was different between m/f

edit: "Pubic hair samples often show elevated phosphorus readings. This is a characteristic of pubic hair."

The hair on your head grows fastest, meaning it’s the best indication of how your body currently functions.

I always let my barber do it. Cut the ends and shave as close to the scalp as possible.

-Shoot, knew I messed that one up. Thanks @Admiral.
I think it is faster than most other areas. All my hair grows very fast. I can shave with a shavette or a straight after 26hrs on randro/4andro. Less now, thankfully.
-I was thinking, yeah I used to get eyebrows done like every 7-14 days ("gay!"). So head/scalp/face/upper-face et al., grow fast. Neck too.
-I think normal is 1.5days for me.
-Disposables? no point, may as well not shave, or use a rusty badger.
-Barber's a good way to get this done.
-I'm getting used to my old habits (good ones). I didn't get a haircut like 6months after finasteride, too weak and depressed at that point. Looked ruined as hell.

That’s correct. Catherine just replied back saying Phosphorus could be high but I should be fine if I take recommended supplements. I guess high phosphorus does not matter in that case..correct?

I just used leg hair as well after using head hair my first time. I keep my hair cut too short. Hate walking around with patches missing. What I did was shave my legs at the beginning of starting my ARL supps. Then 2.5 months later, when I sent in my next test, shaved them again so the hair had been growing through the program. Maybe that makes no difference. Made sense in my head.

Have you guys selected any symptoms in TEI form? Does selecting it makes a difference in recommendations?
