If Any Alleged New Treatments/"cures" Work, What's The Game Plan For Diffused Thinners?

[g.i joey]

I've used min in fits and starts (as in a few days) but I've never stuck with it. So many people seem to say it's a waste of time. And I'm very unclear on how to apply it. I'm diffused in a Norwood 6 pattern, so I've got a huge area to cover, but I do have a lot of hair - so I feel like most of the minoxidil just gets dried up in the hair and never reaches the follicle or scalp. Do people think it's worth it?

Yeah, part your hair as good as possible and use the foam,
Once a night, just do t right after you brush your teeth and it becomes way less of a hassle imo

I feel like we have the same kind of hairloss

f*****g sucks doesn't it? Its so bad that sometimes I see clearly balding dudes but who have better density and I'm jealous. Jealous of a Norwood 3 or 4 bald dude...that's when you know you're fucked.

I feel you. I too sometimes wish i had a dense nw3 hairline instead of a diffused nw1-2. Diffuse balding looks sick.

Minoxidil is fantastic..use it, yes some will get on hair but its okay if its foam wont affect how it looks
you can go to rogaine website they have videos how to do it.
I use a china plate like a saucer, keep in bathroom drawer..put foam on the plate..then part my hair with a comb, then with my finger pick up some foam and just smear it where i part the hair on my scalp..if its too melty too fast for fingers they rinse fingers with cold water it helps not to melt the foam

I was so fear mongered with minoxidil..its harmless if you follow directions, dont double dose it or anything.
Do it gradual like a few nights to get make sure you are not sensitive to it.
Don't let cats or dogs eat or lick it is toxic to them, let hair dry fully if you have pets, rinse everything good put it away. rinse out sink etc.
great drug.
