    I have been avoiding using Rogaine for about a year. I've been using essential oils because I've done a lot of reading that essential oils can help with hair loss. Well, They haven't done anything for me and I continue to lose hair so now I'm ready to give Rogaine a try. Thanks for your videos. I just hope that Rogaine works for me.

      i used Minoxidile since Day 4 maybe 6 of this january, after noticing the shedding is almost in the norwood III phase, also used it on some bald spot in my beard and it did wonders there i can see small hair follicles forming there, as for scaalp sadly i didn't take a before photo and i can't seem to notice a major difference, but the fact that it did something with my beard makes me hopeful that im reactive to the treatement and hopefuly can stop hairloss and even reverse it to a certain decent degree

    Thank you for the video! I have hair your length and I’ve found the foam so difficult to get to the scalp. The foam gets stuck in my hair and doesn’t make it to my scalp. I switched to the liquid because it’s easier to apply, but I would love to see a demo application of the foam. Also YES PLEASE on the oral minoxidil video. Thanks again!

    Female, 30 years. I have been using oral minoxidil and topical minoxidil foam for almost 3 months now (12 weeks to be exact). I noticed a very severe hair loss from the 3 weeks of use and I still have a somewhat of hair loss ? It is becoming quite visible and hair volume is quite less. Would you recommend continuing both for longer? Are there any recommendations on what shampoo and conditioner to use while using minoxidil treatment ?

    I have always had thin eye brows and never even had to pluck them. I like the idea of applying minoxidil to my eyebrows, but am nervous about shedding of my eyebrows. I wouldn’t like to have no eyebrows at all even if it is only for a couple of months.

    • @evanmedi6144
      @evanmedi6144 5 месяцев назад +2

      just be careful when applying it targeting only the wanted areas, i used a dripper at first and did notice some micro hair follicle in unwanted areas like forhead and the side of my brows, since the oil was droping all over the place, luckily its nothing crazy and did notice it early on so now im hoping by depriving those follicles they would just die, if not guess im gonna need laser sessions more freequently

      @@evanmedi6144 Thank you! I have always had thin, fine hair and not a lot of it. That’s a con. On the pro side, I’ve never had much body hair. I don’t have leg hair and never have had to pluck my eyebrows. I wish they were thicker or at least a dark color so I could stop dying them. I would not want to have to be plucking face hair or to have to get laser treatment. I think I’ll use a q -tip if I decide to do my eyebrows.

    • @evanmedi6144
      @evanmedi6144 5 месяцев назад +1

      i wouldn't advice applying minoxidile straight after washing ur hair, as its hydrophilic(water solluble) so it might reduce the chance of it working, that why expert recommand not washing ur hair untill its completly dry after 4-6 hours
      so yeah either wash ur haird and make sure its as dry as possible before applying it, or just wash it after hours of use
      i usualy apply it at night before sleep and wash my hair in my morning shower
