    My hair routine that helped me get strong hair growth is:
    - Brushing hair
    - Take a shower
    - Carefully dry my hair
    - Put hair oil (2 times a week)
    - Apply littllexttrra reactivate hair serum for growth nightly
    - Finished

      You can use it over the top then. It isn't only specific to bald spots as far as I know. No need to wait for more thinning then.

    • @og-pretty
      @og-pretty Рік тому +6

      The official literature says it's not for thinning hair from aging, only for hereditary androgenic hair loss. In other words, balding. However, our use is a known off-label use. Hopefully we will see results close to those from the required regulatory testing.

      Use it now. It also can prevent further hair loss. I wish I would've started it as soon as I noticed mine thinned out. I'm still trying it to see if it helps, but I'm afraid it's too late for me because I waited too long

    • @awkwardah
      @awkwardah Рік тому +56

      Im pretty sure the reason that it says it only works on that area is because the medical trials were only conducted on the crown of the scalp. I think using it on the harline should also help regrowth

      According to my dermatologist, I should put it all over the scalp. The packaging also says the 5% solution is not for women but my dermatologist says women can also use it. The packaging says only for men because the trials of 5% were only done on men and that’s what was FDA approved but it can also be used for women.

    I have a question for those using minox for hair growth. We are told to use it twice a day on clean scalp. So everytime we are to use it, we have to clean our hair first? So I'm assuming that we have to use shampoo twice a day so we can use minox effectively on a clean scalp right? Bcoz I dont think its clean enough to wash our hair only with water after using minox bcoz of its residue. On the other hand, we are also taught that its not good to wash our hair frequently as it will remove the natural oil on the scalp. So any suggestions regarding this?

      use ketoconazole medical shampoo (commonly found as nizoral) every other day or less. it dries out the scalp, so frequent application may cause irritation. avoid dandruff-treating shampoo which do not use ketoconazole as the active ingredient.
