For anyone that has used Rogaine 5% before, do you feel Lipogaine is more effective?

I would say the old formula was but not the new formula. The makers will claim there is nothing different but I beg to differ. I use generic Kirkland minoxidil and I try to use it 3x a day spaced out when I can. What I also found useful is Nizoral because Ketacozolone is shown to reduce DHT. GL

Yes and yes!!! I have used Rogaine foam and Kirkland brand and Lipogaine is the best. Used Lipogaine first and results were awesome. Tried saving money and switched to Rogaine foam and results were ok, but Kirkland brand didn't work at all. Back on Lipogaine and all is well again. It's worth the money

Honestly probably not I used it for awhile and didn't really notice much. I think the derma roller is a lot better and I actually saw results

My derfmatologist My dermatologist recommended I switch from 2% Minoxidil solution to men 5% foam and it works very well. As Rogaine (or generic minoxidil) is no witch medecine, I strongly suggest you consult your own doctor. Pregnant women and those with heart condition must avoid self-medication.

I had the same hair loss and shedding after I first started using Rogain, but now two months in the shedding has dramaticly stopped. Don't give up yet.

I had the exact same problem and this one really works, plus the curls are made five times as fast as when you use a straighter! When it comes down to it, it all depends on your hair, but I personally found that this worked so much better.

I don't think it causes any problems with light colored hair. I don't know about highlights because I have never had any. I use The Big 3 Shampoo from Lipogaine. I derma roll every Saturday night and use Lipogaine mixed with Minoxidil and Pumpkin Seed Oil. On a daily bases I mix Minoxidil with Lipogaine (to extend Lipogaine it's expensive) and put that on my hair with a little Pumpkin Seed Oil. Sounds crazy I know too much product, really all you need is a little of each.

I have been used Hairmax Lasercomb since I bought it but I'm using it with a rigorous treatment (good specialized shampoo and a local drug use called minoxidil) to prevent hair loss and I believe I`m seeing some improvement but is difficulty to associate this improvement to this product only.I'm doing this treatment already for 1 year and I'm hopeful with it.

My hair fell out while using ultrax. I'm having a lot of luck with the Bosley revive 3 pack and minoxidil. Give it a shot!

I notice my hair growth has slowed down quite a bit. Also the hair is not as coarse as it used to be. I use on my face and on the legs. I love this product!!

It works for most people, but it takes awhile. Give it 4 months. At first there will be just fuzz, but don't give up on it. Your hair will never be as thick as it was when you were younger. But it will be thicker. You get a bottle of Rogaine and an eyedropper with the amount to use clearly marked. Use it twice a day, If you just use it once a day for several days in a row, you will experience some hair loss. Using it 3 times a days will not be beneficial. Be sure and wash your hands afterwards if you rub it in

I don't think so, but it didn't stop the rate of my hair loss at all. I feel like it really only changed the texture of existing hair follicles making my hair only "appear" a little better right after using it. I am on Propecia (Finasteride 1MG) now and I swear by it. It has done so much for me. I just wish I had someone to tell me before I started using the LaserComb, and topical oils, and hair loss prevention shampoos, etc.

I did not have any shedding which was great. I have not noticed a lot of new hair growth yet but that does not surprise me since your hair grows in a 3 mth. cycle. I am just excited that it is not falling out in handfuls and what does come out is just small, normal amounts. :) My hair looks very healthy. :) I hope that answered you question. I can not use Rogaine because of the chemicals in it that conflicts with my having leukemia (it is in remission) but I have to be careful not to use anything that might be absorbed into my system. That is another reason I am so thrilled with this shampoo !! Good luck I did not have any shedding which was great.

I take one per day and seem to be getting results from thicker hair over the last 3 months. I am continuing use for that reason.

Janet, I can only tell you that as a peri-menopausal woman, Rogaine did not work for me. I ended up seeing a dermatologist and using essential oils to treat what seemed like eczema.

Not sure. As long as you let the Rogaine sink in for a little bit before adding gel, I wouldn't see any issues.
