What's with all the Foam negativity?

[JWM]

Seems like every other thread has people reporting that Rogaine Foam has made their loss worse.

Let's assume, for a moment, they are telling the truth. What possible explanation could there be for this, OTHER THAN the foam not reaching the scalp.

In my opinion it doesn't absorb as well, especially for people like me who have medium length hair as a lot of it just gets lost in the hair.

Liquid minoxidil with Retin gives me really good results, whereas Foam doesn't give me any at all.

Saying that I still use foam in the morning just in case, and because I think it actually helps my hair look a bit thicker once its dried, but as for actual regrowth from it... well none would be my verdict (and thats even on the bits where I have no hair).

What if you were to just double up on the foam, work it in a little better? It's what I'm doing right now and it seems to be okay. I can't handle the liquid sh*t - you go around looking like a grease ball.
