Applying topicals and seeing the hairs fall

[hoople]

Just curious to hear other peoples level of shedding when they routinely apply their topicals. I count around 10 hairs when applying Tricomin, 10 when applying spironolactone fluid, and about 20 when applying minoxidil freaked2. Then I wash my hair and lose around 50. I'm not sure if this constitutes shedding.. but seeming as I have far less than the 'average' amount of hair on my head, i'm assuming it probably does.

I definitely experience this. I apply minoxidil all over the head and massage it in, and generally drop a good 30-40 hairs before the application process is over. Many people will tell you that a lot of the discarded hair is unhealthy and will be replaced by new, thicker hairs, though, so try to take heart in that.
