Pless tell me your phone number or whats app number
Did you consider to use finasteride?
Your last advice is so important in every aspects of life,thanks for inspiring
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You've done a good job with the rogaine. Hair looks decent now
thanks
KVON are you taking fin?
@@JAYBud88 Id definitely like to know if he uses fin aswell
@@KVONTUBE for the record your hair looks awesome, not just decent
I like how said “make it fit into your lifestyle”. That’s the part I was struggling with. Appreciate the tip!
Best Rogain video ive seen so far
I use Rogaine and have the best way to apply - through trial and error - buy a metal demitasse cup and saucer and keep t in the freezer. When you take it out to apply the Minoxidil, put the plastic can cap inside the cup. When you spray the foam, it will blow up higher in the cap and you will find the very last of the foam will be as firm as the first. Easy and 100 percent of the time, the foam will stay firm and if you're like me, you'll use less to cover your target areas.
I’ve been on minoxidil and finasteride for 1 whole month now and there’s a couple things I’ve noticed.
Context: I’m 24, been receding and thinning alittle forclike the last 2 years and my hairline has gone back like an inch only and I don’t have a bald spot but I have overall , minor thinning.
So back to what I’ve observed.
First of all, my baby hair at the corner of my hairline are literally sprouting again and it’s so cool. They’re still really small but they’re coming back and it’s so cool to see it happen. Like a plant you have growing on your window. It’s just like sprouting so little but I know within 6 months / a year it’ll be even great.
Second of all, the recommended dose of minoxidil has been really flawed in MY PERSPECTIVE. I have like medium sized hair, like half an inch shorter than the guy in this video, and I found that using a half cap full twice a day is just not enough. Cause that’s what it says on the bottle. Using a half cap full is not good for people with any hair at all because so much of the minoxidil foam get stuck in the hair strands as you’re trying to press it over your head and I worry that a lot of it isn’t even reaching my scalp. And I don’t even have that long of hair!!! But I guess that’s the gimmick right? They know minoxidil works, they know minoxidil promotes really healthy blood flow. Minoxidil IS an answer. It is and in order to make money off a product that really works, they have to make it so that the customer consumes more and therefore they charge alot knowing youll use more than they say you need. I Use about a cap full once when I wake up and then again late at night when I get home from work
I’ve been using HIMS brand finasteride and minoxidil but I cancelled my subscription for minoxidil since it’s like $70 for a 3 month supply. I’d rather do the Kirkland 6 pack on Amazon for like $83 I think it was? It’s just much more financially feasible and I’m not worried about the branding. The branding is just the branding. So long as it’s 5% minoxidil you should be fine.
Overall? I think this shit works. I’m pretty optimistic about the future of my results. The way I apply minoxidil is I apply the foam in like penny sized bubbles all around my scalp, giving most focus on the crown and my hairline. And then I first spread it all around with my fingers and very quickly after I mix it with my fingers, I scrub vigorously with the exact massager from this video. The massager is the best thing ever. It’s really literally good for opening up capillaries and letting minoxidil absorbed more. You can tell it’s good for you when you’re done and you feel a warpy feeling of like blood rushing throughout your scalp.
Two takeaways however if anybody even gives a shit. I have been experiencing both brain fog and headaches. These are really strange headaches though. They’re not the typical like…. Headaches I get. It feels different. Usually my headaches and migraines are met with a throbbing of my head and neck veins when I breathe and move a lot. These, from minoxidil, feel like someone’s literally holding to fingers up against both my temples and mildly squeezing. It’s interesting. NOTHING DRASTIC, it only comes and goes every now and again and lasts like 40 seconds but it’s interesting for sure. I’m sure it’ll go away with time
How long did it take you to type that up lololol
@@Irfan-or9sd 17 years
@@Irfan-or9sd nah man, I was just trying to give an in depth review. I know id appreciate the journey someone’s been on and details about it if I were starting a new hair regimen that I’m gonna be on for a while and has potential side effects
how are u doin now ? :3c
Can we get an update bro? How are things?
For what it's worth. The hairloss docs on the harloss show here on UA-cam pointed out that 30-45 min is plenty of time to let the minoxidil absorb for the most part to which you can go ahead and exercise, shower or whatever you want to do. This guy has the right idea 👍
The advice this man gives at the end is great and very helpful.
The thought of rubbing the foam in my scalp like that gives me anxiety from all the hairs I know I’ll see 😂 great video, I’ve ordered 3 months worth so I’m praying this helps. I was taking Finasteride but didn’t notice any results despite taking for a long time so I stopped using. But I’m going to use both minoxidil and Finasteride together this time.
Combining both of those medications brings the best results. I’m 4 months in and it’s working great. The shedding sucked but it will slow down. Also had no side effects
Update?
Thanks for all of your videos man! You are the one that finally got me into using Minoxidil. 1 month in. Keep it up!
Hope it works out for you 🙏🏼
Hey man how’s it going? Did you experience any shedding?
He man how you been did the product worked for you
@@kinga_a2029 Yo! Sorry for the late reply, I never saw these messages pop up. So I've been using Rogaine for about 8 months. I definitely had shedding. I had about two shedding faces. It seems like the hair loss has stopped though. I don't look worse than what I did 8 months ago. I will say, applying the foam makes my hair appear thicker.
Update bro?
If I brush my hair the way you do I’m sure like 50 hairs would fall out lol
Same... weak ass hair
hahahahahaha, wtf?..... hahahahaha
@@gobirds6181 hahahahahaha, wtf?..... hahahahaha
@@tonylaree8299 did i stutter
@@gobirds6181 did I??? hahahahahaha...bye.
I just apply 3 lines from the back to the front of my scalp and then rub it in, its the fastest way and way quicker than doing little dots all over the scalp like most people do
Yeah I just do 2 dots lol
Okay but somebody help me please
I don’t EVEN USE THAT MUCH! The bottles of minoxidil I just got like a week ago say a months worth but I’m only a week in and I’m already running out of my first bottle. I use like 3/4 cap full twice a day. This guy uses two huge globs on the crown and front part. Wtf. Should I just keep ordering it over and over and putting as much as I like on? That sounds expensive
@@illuviium put penny sized dots in lines all over ur scalp parting ur hair, so do 3 lines and on each line 3-4 penny sized blobs and spread. Then part ur hair again and repeat
@@techalpha7362 here’s what I think I’ll do actually, but thank you for your suggestion. I’ll stop ordering my 3month minoxidil foam subscription from HIMS and order the generic KIRKLAND 6month supply foam from Amazon for only like 10 more dollars. People say the Kirkland brand is literally the same thing and for $10 more, I can both order it whenever I want cause it’s not a subscription every 3 months AND it even comes with 3 more goddamn bottles for not much more money. Excellent idea right
I like the part where you mention you scrub the solution in hard, and to not care about making hairs fall out, cause they’re going to fall out regardless. That’s what worries me the most. Is scrubbing in the solution hard to make it effective, but IN DOING SO, making already weak hairs forcefully fall out due to force. I shouldn’t worry about that momentary scare because I’m the long term, all that blood flow youre creating with minoxidil will compensate for momentary loss of weak hairs you see falling out
Bro I really enjoy these videos and they are very helpful also mentally because you're a real dude. thanks a lot for these and keep em coming!
No problem! Thanks for watching 🤟🏼
Hii I don't have much say but I like to nw so plz call me back +254729582347
Here’s a rogaine hack, especially for people with long hair.
1. Places the foam into the cap
2. Using any type of heat to melt the foam in the cap making it into a liquid.
3. Use a 1m bayster found on the regular liquid minoxidil
And there you go, you just made liquid minoxidil that dries in 20 minutes, no greasy, and can be applied directly to scalp with baster applicator. This is amazing for guys with long hair
why not just apply the liquid form?
rocky9555 I’m assuming you’ve never tried liquid minoxidil if your asking that question. 1 it’s greasy, like putting oil to your head, 2. It dries in 3-4 hrs just horrible and inconvenient. 3 it has a ingredient that for some causes nasty side effects. The foam is just way better because he doesn’t do any of that and dries in 20 mins, but it hard to put it on the scalp, especially if you have long hair it sometimes gets stuck in hair. And you NEED minoxidil on scalp not head.
@@edgardelgado8753 I know as have been trying it and I have the issue with skin irritation. I liked the idea of converting the foam to liquid and have been checking out convenient ways to do it
In your response I did not see you mentioning about the liquid, so was checking.
rocky9555 yeah I personally use my heater to melt the foam but a nice hot day will also do it. I know the liquid minoxidil Gave me horrible side effects to the point it was unusable. The foam is where it’s at
Foam is the best 🔥
i started applying the Kirkland minoxidil after watching your videos and it has been a month now, i can feel the top of my head started falling quite alot of hair, i took a picture under sunlight and it was pretty scary, and people say it is normal and I do hope so, hope some new hair will come out in the second month, really wish all my hair can grow back and can be as thick & dense as yours.
If you watch my 3 month video, you will see I went through very similar things. Check it out, it might relieve some of the stress.
I apply the foam by making parts in my hair, putting some on a paper plate and use a q-tip to get some of the foam and apply it directly on the scalp. The foam is so much better than the liquid, but due to the cost, I only use the foam twice a week-on the day I wash my hair.
Thank you so much. Bought the same brand as you and was stressed out on how even to start: when where and how. This video was tremendous help
What was your timeline with minoxidil hair shedding and how noticeable was it?
Those positive words at the end are really outstanding.. thanks!!
Simple, clear and to the point. Thank you. 🙂
No problem 🙏🏼
I love this video cause it’s super informal and it shows how vigorously you can scrub with a lot of the solution still being like viscous but I don’t like how it looks like it mostly got on your hair where it DOESNT count
I use the same brush now based on your recommendation. Works awesome brother. Went a little shorter on the cut-usually my hair is longer-I found it easier to apply and absorb. Going with once a day as well. Cheers!
Cheers! Hope it all works out for you 🙏🏼
What brush did you get? Looking online right now please share a link!
Did your hair re-grow?
@@satishk5356 maintained and regrew slightly.
Please i have a question : are there no side effectivement like érections problems
Best review of Minoxidil that i can find - im on month 4 - starting to see results - thanks man! - I have been putting it on pretty much the same as you - no difference you only need 25 - 45 mins for it to absorb / use it once a day as Minoxidil has a half life of 18 hours - this guy has it completely right!
Thanks 🙏🏼
Awesome vid, been waiting for this one. Thanks for all the detailed info!
TheTurtleDancer no problem bro 🤟🏼
This should have a million views, straight to the point and honest 👍
appreciate that
Ohh damn! Thanks for the reminder. I set a recurring alarm on the phone twice a day except for when over at girlfriends house or when they are over I don't apply on those days.
I miss a few days here and there as well also, hasn't seemed to have any negative impact as of yet.
Thanks man, waiting for the absorbtion twice a day forever isnt gonna be for me. Thanks for showing us the easiest way to go about this.
Thanks a lot bud I have just bought minoxidil and your video was the one that made me feel anxious free.
Hey, your speech at the end about not stressing over the little things is solid advice bro. So, I've been on finasteride for 10 months (no sides) and am just started minoxidil now. Question for you, do you have any flaky scalp/dandruff from applying the foam? Also, do you think it's better to apply the minoxidil to damp/wet or dry hair? Still trying to figure out if I should take it at night or in the morning. I don't want it to spread on my pillow at night (even if it's absorbed right away).
No I don’t. I had some dandruff and scalp irritation when I started but that went away and it can be reduced and eliminated by using a scalp massager and a ketoconazole shampoo imo.
Where did you find the massage brush?
Are you using both finasteride and minoxidil as your hair treatment? How has the growth been?
Today I buzzed off my hair and I’m going to start my minoxidil journey. I’m 25 & although my hair isn’t gone (just thinning a bit) my confidence definitely is. Let’s see how this goes
Good luck bro 🙏🏼
Minox q&a dropping tomorrow if you need some more info 🤟🏼
KVON thanks 🙏🏽
If u see shedding dont worry continue applying
If anyone is keeping up, I’ve started shedding. Your confidence takes a mild hit but hey, better than nothing
The fact that you said Mild means your a naturally confident person. That shed was super tough on me mentally. But it def got much better after that. Gotta look at the bigger picture sometimes.
The best how to apply minoxidil video till date. Thanks for sharing
Awesome feedback!
Results look great. Most people don’t know that minoxidil has a 17hr life span meaning you should def only use it once a day. The only reason it says twice a day is because that’s what they tested on. I would highly recommend checking The Hair Loss Show channel because they were the first to test minoxidil.
Thank you for the info. I’m hoping that it works and I hope that I successfully call someone here. I’m really looking forward to it. I’m so glad that I was able to look at your video and to handle things you have to say because I was kind of curious about how to do my hair with minoxidil hopefully that it works and if I does evidence, I will be writing back to you letting you know my progress. Thanks a lot I have a good one.😊
Really good video. I just started minoxidil foam s couple days ago (25 yo.) and this seems like a good way to apply it. The first time i did it i got it Alllll over the ends of my hair, and it looks like you avoid that, somehow. Brought the brush, its worth trying out.
Yeah this is good advice, the name of the game in hairloss is try and get away with doing the less amount of therapies.
When people notice hairloss they usually panic and jump straight into finastride,ketoconazole,minoxidil,dermarolling, biotin vitamins.hairloss consumes their life’s they become frustrated and aren’t consistent. All the while a simple ketoconazole shampoo and minoxidil could’ve gotten them the same results. Now I can’t stress this enough the Earlier you start therapy the better results!!
Yeah, but I'm not telling people not to take fin. Fin isn't as dangerous as people make it out to be. You should do whatever your comfortable with and stop anything if it effects your health in a negative way.
@@KVONTUBE fin worked for me but give me bad sides in the long time.
@@thefoxysoldier9073 like what ?
Bro I love this channel and ur so straight forward :). I love it!! Thank you for helping us know what to do to help our hair baldness. God bless you 😊
Video starts at 2:20
Thanks for the quick simple and very informative info
Appreciate the video. I’ve been doing it the exact same way with the same massager. Glad to see I’m not the only one
You got them nice curls coming back. Looking good bro.
Yeah man, who knows. Maybe the curly hair videos will make a comeback in the future.
Thanks KVON for this great encouraging video!!
I apply it in the evenings around 4 to 5. I wet my head with just water, let it dry and apply it on. That way I can easily let it dry, take its due course action. By the time I hit the bed it dries up, and in the mornings I can style my hair without it getting all greasy and oily.
Does your hair grow again ?
@@ricorodrigues489 well I haven't noticed any new hair growth but the current number of hair fall has reduced and the shafts have thickened to some degree. I'm on 4th month now
It doesn’t always promote hair RE growth. Sometimes it just prevents further hair fall.
@@hoejackborseman1059 thx for the answer
@@KVONTUBE I was thinking about a hair transplantation but I think I will first try minoxidil a couple month.I have full hair in the front,only in the middle it is very light
Great video, very detailed and quick, thanks. Oh and I’m buying the massager where did you buy yours?
you can apply minodoxil at night so you dont have to worry at day because by that point its fully in your scalp
Perfect, you answered my question about wash out between Appalachians. Thanks!
Just video I was looking for. Thanks mate 😁
No problem 🙏🏼
just subbed and started minoxidil, this is the best video i have seen and helpful, thank you
Can u share ur progress bro
Rogaine/minoxidil and hair implantation which one is the best please?
you look like Daniel ricciardo the F1 driver
Why do you prefer this foam version instead of the liquid? Won't it be easier to apply the liquid version?
I was worried i was putting too much lol! This guy is hilarious man! He put way too much!
I might have, but with longer hair it absorbs into the hair so I use more to compensate for it. With shorter hair I use 1/4-1/2 the amount.
Thanks for the video. How long did it take to see results? You had excellent results but, sorry, no disrespect meant, but the way you apply it causes most of it to be sucked up by the hair.
Good video, thanks. Starting the process today - want simple and sustainable too.
Do you have any side effects from using Minoxidil for so long?
Great video thanks, I just started using minoxidil and was looking for the best way to apply.
Well and now did you see good results with it ?
Do you have a video on your full hair loss routine. What other treatments are you doing ?
What towels do you use? And do you wash them separately from other clothes?
Thanks for the demo! Just bought this stuff today. Quick question, when you were applying twice a day, did you wash you rinse away the old application or just repeat the process? I was thinking about applying right before bedtime and again when I wake up.
Thanx BUT usually I shower after 12 hrs if necessary bcz minoxidil last in 12 hrs for next dose 💓
do you experience any side effects?
Would anybody reccomend using wax to style my hair after using this product? I do enjoy styling my hair, but I've grown concern because I'd have to use this once-twice a day & I wouldn't want the wax to conflict with this product. Any suggestions? I've thought about using an Aloe Vera based gel instead, but Gel's v.s. Wax usually doesn't style my hair as nicely as I'd like. I'm def going to use this product, but seriously, any suggestions? I also wash my hair 3 times a week Mon,Wed, & Friday. Than I take a break on Sunday to use a DermaPen on my head & wouldn't use Minoxidil @ all or maybe early in the AM once
Thx for the informative video, also what about the minoxidil overdosing ? Is it really a thing ? because i think most people dont even care about how much they put on 😄
Hey man, how did you get your hair so thick looking, although only see front facing hair. Looks wicked! what other products do you use, or did you get FUE ?
Love your Videos big up from Dublin Ireland 👍🏽
Just started using today. Fingers crossed
You like the foam or the liquid better
KVON, so do i have to use it for life time otherwise my hairs will fall off? how is your hair now as well? thanks
I’ve read that rapid weight gain is a side effect of using Rogain (minoxidil). Any truth to this? I’d rather not sacrifice the work I’ve been putting in terms of my physical fitness for a full head of hair.
Very useful explanation 🤘
Thanks 🤙🏼
The bottle I use states specifically to not get it in the hair itself. Could you explain how you got to your progress in reference to that?
I have started using this brush two days ago. When I shake my head after brushing, there are A LOT of hair falling off of my scalp. Way more than before brushing. I guess the brush really pulls out the weak hair. Is it normal?
Yeah, those hairs were going to fall off anyways. You can be a little more gentle and see how that goes if you like.
Thanks for sharing your routine with us. Excellent video.
Thanks 🙏🏼
Hey, thanks for the video. I'd like to ask you what type of baldness do you have? Is that androgenic alopecia or something different? Thanks!
Thank you for this video!!!
No wonder why it started getting less effective for you after a year. If you have long hair your suppose to apply foam version directly to the scalp with hair parted. It's more time consuming but worth it.
Have you done boxing before? Any tips for someone who is planning to start boxing/MMA?
Bape with rogaine? Just apply it before bed.
This doesn't work for me..Ive been using it for four months
Dam fucking love your videos. Straight to the point. Tell us the agenda and get to it. Imma do it next month, thank you very much!
🙏🏼
Hi thanks for the video. I was wondering with your method how long does a can last? Thanks
Hi there
I need a hand, lm new using Rogaine foam, I got a 3 months treatment, I’m on the first can, and the first two weeks the foam was coming out normal, but now seems like doesn’t have enough pressure to shot the foam and all it come out is the liquid. I been applying this straight to my head, shooting little by little and being careful to not use more that the cap as the instructions say. Pls guys let me know if I’m doing something wrong 😑 or if this is normal thing to happen, but I’m confused 🤷🏽♂️ because it should be ok
Thank you
Javi.
Should’ve touched on the Biotin Shampoo you use and tell us if it works
It’s hard to say if it helps or not, I only use it once or twice a week.
Esoteric Coaching is that the only shampoo you use ?
Yeah
thanks for this video man
Is it okay to use hair product with minoxidil? And how long should I wait after I use the minoxidil to then use the hair product? Thank you!
Started my treatment today but the shedding scares the F out of me
where do you get that brush? Looks fun to use :)
Maybe this has been addressed already, but the brush you've linked to isn't the same one as what you've shown in the video. The number of brush spikes (or whatever you call them) aren't the same.
I love this video of yours. Love ya bud 😊👊
🙏🏼
love you bro!! thanks
Thanks for the tips it is really inspiring,
What do you think of the liquid version?
I’m not a fan, just because it’s messier and takes longer to dry. Works the same way as foam though.
Great inspiration for me!Congratulations on your gains. I have been on Minoxidil (Kirkland topical solution) for 4 months and I am still seeing shedding. Maybe I will try the foam. Appreciate your thoughts.
The shedding might be from the minox or could be your hair just producing too much dht. Look into getting a ketoconazole shampooz
Great videos! Very nice of you to share :) Did you start using the 2 hair loss prevention/dht shampoos at the beginning of your minoxidil treatment? Do you observe any benefits from using these specialized shampoos? Or are they in the "doesn't hurt to use it" category? Thx!
I was using the cheaper option before in conjunction with minox as a way to help boost the results and recently I switched to the new one with ketoconazole. Big difference in quality and feel, but to early to say whether or not I’ve benefited from it.
@@KVONTUBE thanks for sharing your experience!
🙏🏼
@@KVONTUBE which shampoo ? I only know nixoral. Do u mean that ?
@@turkicaz5505 Nizoral Shampoo has 1% Ketoconzale. It's a small bottle about 7fl ounces for $15 @ Target. I use that Mon & Friday than I use Head & Shoulders on Wed using their "Full & Thick" formula infused with caffine. I use a DermaPen on Sunday or "stamp" in my case for like $20 on Amazon (usually use on face, but I use on scalp since it's adjustable needles). All of this I have noticed less hair loss over 2 months now. Not sure what's working & not but I heard Ketoconzalo & Caffine is good for hair loss, mostly the Keto though.
Bro I bought a Minoxidil, his name is remixidil in foam, you know ??
Hey bro what’s the difference if there’s any is there in minoxidil foam and the non foam minoxidil? Thanks in advance
What about derma rolling?. How much time before or after can I do it?
KVON, this video is great! Please answer this though: I have a huge problem using foam. It takes me like 15 minutes for every application because I'm doing parts in all 3 thinning areas and I rub it with my fingers but I'm so afraid that it gets into the hair and not the scalp that I'm rubbing it for so long my hands hurt. It spend way too much time for this. So the question is have you been applying it the exact way you do in the video with the brush since the beginning? Because I really need to stop doing it the way I do. Your way looks far less time consuming and more convenient than mine. Thanks in advance!
Is it normal that the minoxidil dries when you constantly rub it or should you just rub it for a few seconds and let it dry on its own?
thanks for the advice pard
Do I have to apply it before I have a shower or after. Do I have to wash it after or not?
update us bro on ur finasteride and minoxidil journey
