My first Rogaine foam order will be arriving shortly. I'm kinda excited - though not sure if that's the accurate word to use....

Here's a thought that just popped into my head. If you're meant to apply it on clean hair, do you have to wash your hair AGAIN at night prior to application? Two times a day??? If not, I would imagine applying the foam in the evening w. the toppik that will be in my hair (from the morning) will cause a seriously dirty mess (foam mixed with toppik mess).

Please let me know how people deal with this. I'm sure it's a regular occurrence for many.

Thanks.

Ideally it should be applied on a clean scalp to maximize penetration

I wash my hair twice a day, before each application, but I get why many would see it as a hassle

I recommend you try to make at least 1 of your daily applications on a scalp fresh out the shower

Showering twice a day seems time consuming, especially when the sole purpose is to re-apply Rogaine. Again, I'd assume not showering and applying foam with toppik would be an unholy mess. Man, what have I got myself into....

Any suggestions are much appreciated...

Maybe just start showering at night instead of the morning?

Put minoxidil on in morning, followed by toppik when it dries. At night take shower, washing out toppik, apply minoxidil, go to bed, repeat.

Interesting idea. So the minoxidil in the AM would basically be put on top of the minoxidil from the PM before. Wouldn't that make for a greasy hair day? Not taking hot morning showers is def not optimal!!
