  1. Hi My first post. Ive been using Minox for 3 months 9 days today. I can say I noticed growth of fine hairs at the hair line within a week..maybe they were there already but looking at the photos ive posted in my album on here today and others I have on my PC I would say there has been some slight regrowth at the front and most noticably all over the scalp the hair is thicker and darker. I would not be surprised if in another 3 months I saw significant improvement in this area. I dont think there is enough juice in the tank to grow back my flowing locks from 15 years ago, but I'm impressed with Kirkland Minoxidil and I use Alpecin caffeine shampoo everyday...which some people suggest as anti hair loss. Check the photos in my album out, not the best quality angles, but will be interesting to see after 12 months of treatment. I would appreciate a second opinion incase I'm deceiving myself! Cheers

    Before starting Minoxidil Also hair cut to grade 1 which it had been for years. Shortly after this photo I started a new job and with the early signs of improvement I decided to cut my hair to grade 3, so from 2/3rd week my hair was cut to grade 3 for the first time in nearly 10 years.

    minoxidil 5% results

    Hi Just thought I'd share my progress on minoxidil and alpecin shampoo. I'm 35, have been thinning and receeding since i was 20 atleast. Never really bothered me, think I look ok with a shaved head, but thought why not give minoxidil a go, particularly after I found a relisticly priced brand made by Kirkland for 3 months supply. Three months and 9 days in, noticeable thickening I believe and possible growth at the front. I felt a tingling the first time I put the minoxidil on the scalp and within days noticed a change in my hair and possible very fine light hair strands growing at the front which I hadn't noticed before. To be honest I started a new job shortly after starting the minoxidil and with the feeling that there was improvement in my hair density I decided to let my hair grow from a grade 1/2 for the first time in ten years and started using grade three on the clippers. The most recent photo would be slightly longer than grade three on top. I have notice no side affects and using the lotion with the pipette I find it practical to give it a quick rub in before bed and when you wake up. In summary I was so impressed after the first two weeks I almost went and bought a years supply. I have just started my second three month supply and look forward to seeing the results in three months. Mind you know one has said anything, I havent told anyone, but I notice people are starting to look at my hair when they talk to me now lol, im just waiting for the day some comments and I can spill the beans.
