finasteride, minoxidil and microneedling

The effect of the second picture could be the results of longer, curly, coarse hair alone. Such results in 6 months are too quick as normal terminal hairs usually grow at a rate of 1/2 inch/month. Maybe we are seeing a combination with some results from your treatment and a good quality coarse wavy hair. I wouldn’t suggest that you shave your hair, but from such a picture, the results of the treatment would be evident.
