...what i mean by "too much minoxidil" refers to per application...

...i suppose my hair loss isn't as extreme as some(given my age, @ 26-27 i had a ton of hair)...so consequently, i have refrained from pro & only use minoxidil currently...

...the issue is the amount used...

...i wear my hair anywhere from 2"-6" long and i go through an entire bottle of minoxidil in 3 to 6 days(max)...3-4 days when longer & 5-6 days when shorter...

...also, not only is this proving to be excessive but i go through this amount by applying only ONCE per day(very rigid, hardly ever miss)...

...ive been on this regime now for the better part of a yr...

...can anyone here please educate me on any possible side effects of this excess in use(i rub the minoxidil in w/ my finger pads{not nails} vigorously...

...to date, outside of the dusty powdery "greyish" look the minoxidil leaves on my hair when finally dried(i cant help but satuate my hair), my scalp appears fine(no flaking, redness etc)...

...i will try and post some pics of my noggin soon for further input from everyone, but in the meantime, any advice on my apparent current "addiction" to minoxidil :freaked:

trust me, i do just that...

...im always parting my hair to reveal scalp before sparying/dropping minoxidil...then i take to massaging vigorously throughout...

...for whatever the reason i must be a complete idiot because i generally always end up using the same amount...ugh...

...so im just wondering if i may be causing any irreversable damage?

I would'nt use anymore then the recommaned dosage of 1ml twice a day in the crown of your head. Just follow the instructions which came with the minoxidil and you can't go wrong. Your just waisting your money by using more of it.
