Hi, I've just started using Rogaine foam and I was wondering how long it takes dry enough so that I can put product in my hair (pomade or leave in conditioner)?

Thanks!

Usually it should take 20-30 minutes.

Thanks! I was hoping it was a little shorter but I guess I can get up a little earlier to take care of that.

Minoxidil was first used exclusively as an oral drug (trade name Loniten) to treat high blood pressure. It was, however, discovered to have an interesting side-effect: the ability to reverse or slow down the balding process. Upjohn Corporation produced a topical solution that contained 2% minoxidil to be used to treat baldness and hair loss, under the brand name Rogaine in the United States and Canada, and Regaine in Europe and the Asia-Pacific. Treatments usually include a 5% concentration solution that is designed for men, whereas the 2% concentration solutions are designed for women. The patent on minoxidil expired on February 13, 1996.

Hi tdub,

As you have started using Minox foam for couple of weeks now my question is how long from your own observation does it take for Minox foam to dry
Thanks
