It’s just annoying sometimes, honestly–having to apply the stuff every single flippin’ day.
And the liquid solution is kind of greasy.
I don’t like that.
Granted, I could spend a few extra bucks on minoxidil foam, which isn’t greasy, but as I’ve said before, I don’t enjoy spending money.
After each treatment, I have to wash my hands–also mildly annoying.
I’ve had minoxidil land in my eyes on a few occasions too.
That was my own fault.
I was probably intoxicated…
But those experiences were quite unpleasant nevertheless.
As far as the money goes, no. I can’t really complain about that.
I spend somewhere between $5 and $8 per month.
That’s less than most people spend on coffee in a given day.
And the benefits are amazing–improved density at the crown, namely.
And peace of mind.
Hair loss isn’t something I think about very often, aside from when I’m working on this hair loss blog.
Other side effects?
No.
I guess I really have much to complain about, do I?
But of course everyone’s experience with minoxidil is unique.
As always, this blog is ultimately about you.
Which leads me to this question…
What is your biggest minoxidil complaint?
