Yeah . . .

Yeah, the benefits of having a shaved head when applying Rogaine are tremendous. I remember two years ago when I was letting my hair grow it was a b**ch to put on Rogaine. The greasiness feeling of my hair . . . ugh . . . But, it's so much better now that I shave my head. I mean, it's annoying when the stuff drips down the sides and back of my head, but it's a thousand times better than applying it on full hair, with all due respect to the people here who do grow out their hair.

Item # 503. Dries in 15 to 30 minutes and works just as good maybe better since it has more alcohol which leads to better absorbtion. I will never touch regular store bought minoxidil again.

thanks, but dr lee is quite well respected for his treatments, dont you think? wouldnt you say hes the most reputable maker of generic minoxidil, and a lot of people trust his treatments?

Well Lee is generic in the sense that he's not Upjohn- he didn't put minoxidil through FDA trials and be the first to market it. His sh*t is more expensive and actively marketed too, unlike any other generic product. Plus he's a doctor, not a storebrand.

Yeah your right. But at roughly $16.50 a month (for item #503) it is extremely cheap considering the benefits. It works out actually a little less than legit Rogaine. Some pharmacies will mix you up the same formula for a premium. I called one place and they wanted $45 a bottle.

Ah yes item 503. You are correct sir.

Just curious- do all of Lee's minoxidil products contain less ppg? That's the point of buying from him right, even if you don't want the retin-a or azelaic acid or whatever else.
