If you buy the foam you can fill the cap and then place the cap in hot water. The heat will melt the foam into a liquid that is not be greasy like the spray or liquid version. 

I fill the cap with Minoxidil 5 % foam and then l put hot water on the cap in order to turn the foam into a liquid is that what you meant ?

Hello. Do you prefer Minoxidil 5 % in spray or in foam ? And why ? 

I’m currently using the 5% foam, only been taking it just over a month maybe, no progress yet, some shedding first few weeks

Lower the cap in hot water so the water doesn't get into the top of the cap. The heat will melt the foam into a liquid that is less greasy and easier to use than the liquid version itself.

Turning the foam into a liquid means that the liquid is easier to use if l did understand. Am l correct ?

Spot on. It’s an old trick. 👌

If the goal is turning the foam into a liquid better to get the liquid form directly right

Oral gave me some chest pain 

Topical Minoxidil didn't do anything for me but until I added Tretinoin (activates sulfotransferase enzymes). Game changer for those who don't respond topically.

No the liquid form for sale is greasy to apply. When you heat the foam version it is far more viscous and easier to apply. 

Ok l get it now
