Regular Member Maddog1 Posted December 19, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have been using Rogaine foam for some time now, using it twice a day. I have recently started using Dermmatch as well. I was wondering how the rest of you applied Rogaine in the evening? Do you shower off the Dermmatch or other concealer, before applying Rogaine? I called the 800 number for Rogaine, and spoke to someone about this, and they said that I should wash this out of my hair before applying. Sounds like a pain each night. Do you all do that? He also said that I should wait 15 minutes after applying Rogaine to put in any gel or concealer. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Maddog, Dermmatch hair loss cover-up can create a thin (or even thick) layer on the balding scalp quite possibly preventing full absorption of the Rogaine. Though it's not highly convenient, I happen to agree with the Rogaine representative that washing out the Dermmatch before applying Rogaine is the best way to allow for full penetration of and absorption into the scalp. I also agree that it's best to let the Rogaine dry on your scalp before applying any styling products or concealers. If you don't want to wait 15 minutes, use a hairdryer on a low cool setting and run it over your hair for fast drying. Be sure not to use heat. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
