Hey guys. Been reading the forum for quite a long time but decided to join so I can ask for a bit of help/advice.

I'm in London, UK. Currently using Rogaine 5% Foam which I buy online.
It works well for me, dries quickly and leaves hair OK to style.
But it's not cheap. Costs me about £15/month.

I want to test out some Kirkland Generic Minoxidil 5% solution.
I've read that it causes scalp reactions for 10% of guys.
Hopefully I'll be in the 90% who can manage OK cos it would save me a lot of cash.

So here's my question. Does anyone know where I could get a 1 month supply of Kirkland to test out if my scalp can take it ok?

I've looked on ebay etc but everyone is selling 3+ months supply and I don't want to commit to such a large amount until I know it won't cause itching etc.

Any help/advice gratefully received.

And if anyone in the UK feels like slipping me a small sample, I'm sure we could work something out between us.

Thanks in advance,

Matt

Not sure about 1 month but I did find some site that sells it in the UK with free shipping

just google kirkland minoxidil uk

3 months is about what you pay for one month of foam. Most people use the Kirlands in combination with Rogain Foam.

Foam in the morning and Kirklands at night.

Also keep in mind after 18 months one application per day is all that is needed for maintaining

Cheers for the tips so far. Any other advice still welcome.

Did the Agestop order arrive yet? Does it seem kosher?

One more question: does Kirkland product (compared to foam) take longer to dry and does it leave hair looking/feeling greasier?

Cheers.

Quick update:

I bought a 3 month supply of Kirkland 5% minoxidil from Agestop.
Very impressed with their service & v.quick discreet delivery.

No bad reaction to the PPG so far, managing to apply it with very few drips.
Leaves hair slightly greasier than foam, but not in a problem way as yet.
