OK everyone! Here comes the questions rolling in!
I heard that a Hydrated Scalp helps with Minox absorbtion. How much hydrated does this mean? One stroke of a towel after shower...2 strokes? Please shine some light thanks. I'd like to ensure a good absorbtion although too much may not be good!
Next, how do people generally use Rogaine or Kirkland? Do you just rub it in all over? For how long do you rub it? Do you also have to do circular "massages" on the scalp to make the stuff go in?
What about other topicals? For Spiro and Revivogen I'd have the same question.
Lastly, is it true for Tricomin and Folligen you only spray the stuff on without rubbing and massaging?
Thanks!

I gently massage it in for about 10-20 seconds in each area that I apply the Kirkland Minox. I want to make sure that I get good absorption.Next, how do people generally use Rogaine or Kirkland?

I have used Dr. Lee's 5% spiro cream in the past, and I did not rub this in. I basically placed a small amount in an area and spread it out as a very thin covering (so thin that it became completely transparent).What about other topicals? For Spiro and Revivogen I'd have the same question.
I apply Revivogen in the same manner as I apply the Kirkland Minox.
I have not used Tricomin, but I have used Folligen in the past. I found it to sting quite a bit after application. I didn't massage it in and I used a very small amount to just lightly coat the areas where I applied it.Lastly, is it true for Tricomin and Folligen you only spray the stuff on without rubbing and massaging?
