2 months in & yes the hair loss terrified me, I go back to my Dermatologist in December to discuss my results. Also, this can cause headaches, little weight gain or a faster heartbeat…

[@SouruPersona]

Did you used tropical or oral minoxidil?

[@blackpurple9163]

Yes, known side effects

You said all that and still did not explain anything.

[@NefariousNatives]

Ok I freaking👏🏾 love👏🏾 this 👏🏾 Thank you for explaining it!

[@suecampbell4811]

I use Rogaine and have the best way to apply - through trial and error - buy a metal demitasse cup and saucer and keep t in the freezer. When you take it out to apply the Minoxidil, put the plastic can cap inside the cup. When you spray the foam, it will blow up higher in the cap and you will find the very last of the foam will be as firm as the first. Easy and 100 percent of the time, the foam will stay firm and if you're like me, you'll use less to cover your target areas.

[@LoveYourselfFirst888]

I’m confused what’s the point of doing all that? Because you save product? I’m seriously curious???? Please help 😂

[@suecampbell4811]

@@LoveYourselfFirst888 the Minoxidil turns to liquid pretty fast so when you put the plastic cap inside the metal demitasse cup, the cap stays cool and the Minoxidil remains a foam. This means you have time to use the foam wherever you want as opposed to taking the liquid from the bottom of the plastic cap and pouring it over your head!

Tret and ketoconizol? Longer video, please?

[@shony8263]

[@hamptonsfnst2014]

Was considering using this but was uncertain how to properly use it. Must I use anti-dandruff shampoo throughout my hair or only the areas where I apply the minoxidil, such as my temples?

[@FanharSaputra]

[@v.5442]

No, this does NOT treat male pattern hair loss even if you use it long enough. Your hair follicles will still miniturize due to the DHT. That is what I use topical finasteride for at a 0,01 dilution (1ml).

Is it effective????

If I wanted to try it for my eyebrows would the foam be better like the video said? How would you apply the foam to your eyebrows?

If you use a clean spoolie (the brush that comes with mascara) or Q-Tip, it's easy to apply. Hope that helps!

I'm a woman and have just noticed thinning slightly still have loads of hair , if I start using this now what are my chances of growing back the hair that's thinned or at least keep the rest of the hair I have, my temple is gone I put it down to postpartum hairloss but it didn't come back 😢 should I get transplant straight away or use minoxidl for a year first as my temples always been thin yet it fully grew in during pregnancy so the hair there has recently showed it can grow in

[@samanthabrittain8680]

Have you tried rosemary oil yet? The thing with rogaine is that you can't stop using once you start growing back hair because once you stop you'll lose all the hair you've grown back so it's a life long commitment.

[@HarshaVardhan-vv9iz]

That's sad ! How is your condition now!!?

[@ManishSingh-wb5jt]

can I use it for hypothyroid hair fall and bald area and hair thinning

[@zayal486]

Yes

[@piasehgal-kq3it]

My hair started shedding significantly after a very stressful time in my life. Consequently, I myself researched the net and opted to test a hair oil called litttleextra coocoonion & a comb made of neem wood. It really definitely worked. At present, I have long, dense, dark hair that has grown down to my waist and trimmed on three occasions since I began using it. Easy and effective. Additionally, just as effective can be massaging the scalp - it encourages hair growth. You just must do this once a week. Before long, you'll see new hair starting to grow.

bro use finasteride, minoxidil will not stop hairs from falling out it will only make the diameter little bit bigger in best case scenario.

[@skraptap]

go to real trihologist and ask for finasteride

[@skraptap]

you cannot trust these online doctors, they are scmaers or worse genuinly dont know what they are talking about

[@pkstevens4165]

Does it help with traction alopecia

[@skraptap]

yep it might help, but as you know the main cause is your hairstyle choice. To avoid it you should probably choose a hairstyle that doesnt pull hair alot. Also i recommend going to real doctor and not listening to tictok doctors. Trihologist will diagnose you what kind of alopecia you really have and weather or not to use finasteride.

[@PEDANTSENOR]

If we stop using it , what happens?

very likely you will end up even more bald that is why you have to keep on using it for a very long time. I use Ducray Neoptide expert I do see some results but will try monoxidl next

@@Chris-nr3md Better you consulted a healthcare provider if you notice faster heartrates. 2% will obviousliy reduce the chances of that happening, but the tradeoff is it won't be as effective in forcing your hair toward the regrowth phase.

its not most effective treatment for treating hair loss. Its only a stimulant it might help make your hair diameter thicker but thats all. You will still loose hair if you dont use DHT blocker like finasteride or dutasteride.

You need to go to a doctor to find out why you were losing hair in the 1st place. It could be hormonal or nutritional related.

[@ikarusmiller8180]

I have to know, what happens when you miss a dose? Does your hair fall out? I was told to start using this but havnt yet because I’m scared to see what happens if I go camping and can’t take a dose for some reason. Also my whole body has this plaque. My feet look like lizard feet and everything I do doesn’t help. I’m just turning into a lizard over time. I use vanicream on the daily and It helps, but still plaque everywhere. I sparkle in the sun! 😢

[@husamh4585]

Nothing will happen. Also studies show that 2mls of minoxidil is effective, that’s why you’re supposed to take it twice a day, but you can actually take both doses at the same time

Here’s what I do for my hair growth: I start my day with yoga. For breakfast, I have eggs, almonds, and idlis. When I return back from work, I gently massage my hair.
