Regular Member mikeh Posted July 13, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 I have been reading about emu oil and its use as a carrier oil since it penetrates the scalp and skin so easily. I have started using emu oil on my scalp and then putting the rogaine liquid on top of that. There are a few articles I located through google about this. The thinking is that since it is so penetrating that it can help carry the minoxidil deeper into the scalp thereby causing it to be more effective. I've started this in the past 2 weeks and will keep everyone posted. In the mean time has anyone else tried or heard of this? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Smoothy Posted July 13, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 Interesting application of emu oil as transfer agent for rogain. I dont know if it has a "transfer or dilation" property, but please keep us posted as many successes come from unusual avenues and positive side effects from other things.

Regular Member Marko Ramius Posted July 18, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 18, 2008 Just looking at the structures of the molecules, I think propylene glycol is probably a better vehicle. However, an organic chemist would would be better able to answer this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
