Senior Member Squatch Posted November 21, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted November 21, 2014 You can use minoxidil and a concealer at the same time. I used minoxidil and Toppik. I would put the minoxidil on first and let it dry then apply your concealer. I have only used Toppik so I cant say about others. I was amazed how well it stayed on the hair and only came off with soap generally. Good stuff in my opinion. Gave me about 5 extra years before my HT.

paul74 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I use both Nanogen and minoxidil. I have the problem that if I use the fibres during the day after my first application of minoxidil then will I have to wash my hair before my 2nd application of minoxidil.

Squatch - did you notice that Toppik or other concealers were hard on your follicles? I used it a few times and it seems like I lost more hair in the immediate area within just a few days after application. I would like to have tried it more, but I think between Rogaine and trying the concealer, my hair loss seemed to accelerate in the 2 years leading up to my HT. It could have just been my physiology timing and severe losses of hair matched up with my attempt at the products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member AB2000 Posted November 27, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted November 27, 2014 When I was on Dermatch and hair fibers, I took two showers a day so that I could apply minoxidil twice a day. That meant reapplying the hair concealers every day. As far as having these products affect hair loss, during the two years I used Dermatch and Nanogen hair fibers, my norwood level remained the same. Actually I was concerned that I would see hair loss due to painting all that Dermatch on day after day, perhaps not giving the scalp enough oxygen to maintain my hair level. But I never saw any further balding so I continued. My Hair Loss Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice increased shedding when I would start using Rogaine again. I was not very faithful using it. I should have not have stopped and started it so much in the past.

Regular Member dsm2894 Posted November 27, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted November 27, 2014 I've tried it in the past - not harsh. Just have to let the minoxidil dry then apply the concealer. It worked well for me. I'm not using concealer now, but it worked well when I needed it. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. Quote from Charles R.
