hi
i'm using kirkland 5% minoxidil for 2.5 years on the hair line temple area only and it's regrown me a peach fuzz and nothing more

i'm also use emu-oil,retin-a,scalp roller to improve absorbation of the product
recently added HAIRMUCK to the minoxidil mixture
but unfortunely with no visable improvment :thumbdown2:

and 0.5 mg propecia and nizoral

recently i'm thinking about rasing the minoxidil doage to 15%
has any one switch and notice improvment?

I've upped the doseage and noticed improvement. I did 3x per day, 1 bottle per week. That's 4x the does. I was a greasy mess. Yes, I got grew hair fast. No telling if I would have got there anyway with the lower dose though. I was in a hurry and got there in 2 months, then quite because I did not like the oily minoxidil hair.

If you are not getting side effects, you can also increase absorption by applying it after taking a shower. Just wipe off any standing water, wait 5 minutes, and apply before your skin dies. I'm surprised your scalp is not red and painful with all the stuff you are doing to it.
