just wondering whats the best way to apply my minoxidil so it makes good contact with my scalp? i follow the directions and part my hair and apply it with the dropper, and if any of it starts to run down my face i scoop it with my fingers and rub it into other parts of my scalp...though an hour later it feels and looks like my hair is absorbing all the minoxidil and it acts wet like its been gelled...

common it makes your hair greasy looking. I just take the dropper and try to put it directly on the scalp and then rub it in with my fingers.

Is your signature related to a Jadakiss song?

is it better to rub it in or apply it directly to the scalp and let it dry on its own?
I do the former - to great results. I apply some directly on my scalp/on top of parted hair close to the scalp and then rub and massage it in on the scalp in that area. Repeat.

yeah same here, it sucks cus when i part hair and apply minoxidil it holds it like gel and makes my hair look bald with the way it parts hair and makes gaps, but after it dries for an hour or so i rub my hair with my fingers and it looks good :)

I know exactly what you mean, but at least it looks decent within an hour or so already. :)
