How to Use Minoxidil

Minoxidil Usage Guide for Men and Women

(EACH PACK YOU BUY FROM US COMES WITH A FULL AND DETAILED INSTRUCTION LEAFLET)

1. Application

  • Apply 1 ml of Minoxidil solution or foam directly to the affected scalp areas.

  • Use on a dry scalp (or slightly damp hair if freshly washed).

  • Massage gently with your fingertips to spread evenly. Don’t worry if coverage isn’t perfect—Minoxidil will still affect nearby follicles.

2. Frequency

  • Men: Apply twice daily for best results.

  • Women: Apply once daily when using 5% Minoxidil.

Consistency is the most important factor—missing applications can reduce effectiveness.

3. Derma Rolling (Optional)

  • Use a derma roller weekly or every two weeks.

  • Roll gently across thinning areas to stimulate follicles and improve Minoxidil absorption.

4. Hair & Scalp Care

  • Wash with a mild, sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner to avoid irritation.

  • Exfoliate gently during shampooing with your fingers or a silicone scalp brush to remove dead skin cells and boost penetration.

  • Trim split ends regularly to reduce breakage and maintain healthier hair.

5. Patience & Consistency

  • Results typically appear after 3–6 months of consistent use.

  • Temporary increased shedding may occur at first—this is normal and usually subsides.

6. Safety & Precautions

  • Avoid contact with your face, eyes, nose, and mouth. Wash hands thoroughly after use.

  • Consult a dermatologist before starting if you have scalp conditions or health concerns.

  • Side effects (rare) may include mild irritation or itching. Seek advice if these persist.

7. Lifestyle Support

  • Eat a nutrient-rich diet, stay hydrated, manage stress, and get adequate sleep—these all support hair growth and overall scalp health.


Remember: Every individual responds differently. Staying consistent and patient with Minoxidil is the key to achieving the best possible results.
