Works...with costs.

Kirkland Minoxidil so far has been working for me. I am 28 years old and before using this product had a large bald spot on the top of my head and a lot of thinning in the front. I am almost at the two month mark and have had a decent amount of hair regrowth. Both on the crown of my head (bald spot) and the front area. The product suggests that you should not use it in the front but let's face it that's what more people will be looking at when they are looking at your face. Anyway the hair isn't as long and thick as the rest of my hair but it has begun filling in those balding areas despite. They say it takes a good solid couple months to see the full effect and I had to stop using it for almost a week when I forgot to pack it on a vacation. I imagine if I had the hair would be thicker and my bald areas would be even more filled in. This progress comes at a cost though. The product is a great value compared to Rogaine especially when they basically are the same things and offer the same type of potential for hair regrowth. But still plan on buying it continually because if you stop applying it the reqgrown hair will fall out after a few weeks. Another cost is the commitment to daily routine. It has to be applied in the morning and before bed. By the way the product is a clear liquid that you basically drip onto your bald area and massage it into the scalp. Sometimes it makes your head itchy. But a third kind of negative point...you need to give it a good hour to dry. In the first hour or so after you apply it your head will be kinda nappy...by that I mean sort of stiff and sticky. That has been my experience so far...hope it helps.More detail ...

needs slightly more wind velocity

good product. Needs slightly more blow power. A low heat setting would be nice also rather than high heat or none.More detail ...

It grows weeds on your balding scalp

For now it gets a 4 because at least it's showing some results. The product asks to wash with shampoo twice (1st wash for 1-2 minutes 2nd for 3-5 minutes) and at least five times a week. At 180 ml it's about the same volume as the Neutrogena T-gel I also have. So for the price it's at on Amazon I think it's a decent price for what it claims to do.



The shampoo smells really good like a lighter version of Herbal Essence and not overwhelming like those Axe shampoos. It contains antioxidants to prevent inflammation of the scalp so I was surprised I could use this as an alternative to the tire-smelling T-gel for treating my seborrheic dermatitis. A small amount lathers really well (just like T-gel) so even though it doesn't look like much the product lasts quite a bit.



I did not see any results within the first week but I am on my third week now and am beginning to see tiny sprouts of hair where my receding hairline was. Before using this shampoo my hair used to fall out often when washing. It still falls out even now but not as much as before. It used to be maybe 7-10 strands of hair falling out but now it's 2-4 and I also notice that the base of the strands have a thicker follicle.



Judging by how much I have left I say one shampoo lasts 2-3 months considering I wash in the morning and night and use it about 5-6 days of the week. So far my scalp isn't red and it doesn't itch (great alternative to T-gel) but I'll have to give it an extra month to see how those sprouts do before giving this 5 stars.



7/12/09 UPDATE: A little girl's bday party yesterday helped make the final decision to say this product works. So before this product I would wake up with thin flat hair. About a year or two ago the older sister (about 11 during the time) of this little girl used to ask me why my hair looked thin and say "the top of your head looks empty." I told her I was getting old and balding. Yesterday this very same sister of the bday girl said "you look different it's like you have more hair." Reacting to her comment I realize my hair had more volume and felt bushy. Looking at the mirror I also realized it was thicker than before. This product may not work for everyone but it works for me. =)More detail ...

Five Stars (not really)

I reviewed this product a week prior to this post. The review lasted on Amazon just a few days before Amazon removed it. I gave it two stars. There was nothing offensive in my review so it is befuddling why Amazon removed. So I give five stars in this repost... if this post lasts then a skew may exist for keeping high-star reviews vs low-star reviews. Anyway I have some important items to share here. Just two stars in the prior review because of a couple of major gripes: (1) too strong of fragrance and (2) just mild regrowth results. If not for the scent I award the Rogaine foam 3.5 stars.



Years ago I used the original non-foam Rogaine product. That was before Rogaine Foam entered the market. That was 17 years ago. And I had good results with the non-foam version until I developed an allergy to the polypropylene-glycol (PPG). So I had to stop use about 12 years ago. Back then there was no foam version.



Turns out there are many like me who develop skin allergy to PPG. Fast forward 10 years... the foam version hits market which uses glycerin in place of polypropylene-glycol. The glycerin is much better tolerated. So restarting use the Rogaine two years ago this time foam version I had no allergic reaction. Yet the new product now has an added very strong fragrance. Still there was some regrowth using the product. So do try the product and see for yourself. It may work for you. Yet keep your expectations in order. And beware that when you first apply there will be an overwhelming flowery scent that lasts for about 45 minutes until it dries which can be embarrassing if not accounted for. In case makers of Rogaine are reading please make a fragrance-free foam version (and soon). My wife has a sensitive nose and complains mightily so I usually have to leave the room.
