I think it works better than many think. I think incorrect or inconsistent use causes many to scrap it and claim it does not work.
Worth adding for sure. Especially now that we have the foam which is 1000% better than the liquid. The foam actually gives your hair volume so it's a win win. The liquid made hair look greasy.
Is the foam really better? I tried using both the foam and the dropper and the foam just seemed like a total nightmare to apply. Did you actually spray it in the little cup first or just lay it down on the scalp straight out of the nozzle? I have pretty long hair so I felt like I was just getting it on the hair not on the skin.
With the liquid I can just drag it across the scalp like a plow and leave a bead of it wherever. I don't know about the results but it feels like it is a lot easier to apply, although maybe it is only affecting those lines where it is put down at.
I did notice that about 4 months after I started using the Minoxidil I had a very heavy shed period. I panicked and stopped but after reading on here I believe the consensus is that the shed is a positive, even diagnostic sign, so I have restarted use.
Does many people really get great results using minoxidil ?
