Hi everyone.
I started with Minoxidil a year and half ago.
The first Minoxidil I used was a 5% liquid from a local brand.It made my scalp extremly itchy after 2 weeks of use so I stopped using.
3 months later I started to use Kirkland foam.Same deal here,after a week my scalp began to itch pretty bad so I dropped it.
Six months later I started using Minoxidil 2% as advised here,got same response.
2 weeks ago started using Lipogain for sensetive scalp(pretty expensive) and STILL my scalp itch like hell.
I also should mention that I use only on my crown,0.5ml once a day and I get that response.
When I'm using,every time I scratch my head I get thin hair on my fingers.
Did anybody else experienced somthing similar?
Is the itch and the shedding of the thin hairs means that it's working and I should just suck it up and continue to use?
The thing is,I can't tell if the itch is a bad sign,and if im doing damage to my hair because of a sensetivity to minoxidil,or maybe it's just somthing that everyone are experiencing?
