Good q, The minoxidil should go directly on your scalp! It needs to absorb into it to work. Also any skin the minoxidil touches can start growing hair so I’m careful to keep it off my face and wash my hands well after applying.

O and re full scalp I separate the top of my head into 4 like chunky cornrows and do a few drops between them then some at the back of my head around the height of my ears.

Nw! I used to get a prescription from my derm, but just switched over to Hims. The packaging is needlessly gendered but the dropper is good!

I only do it once a day at night and that has worked great. I also try to make sure any leave ins don’t touch my scalp just in case.

So type 4 coily gal here. I feel you on the LC hair loss. 5% minoxidil works for me. I use the solution with the dropper for more precision.

Also I use head and shoulders shampoo bc dandruff can induce hair loss. I’ve heard head massages to increase blood flow to follicules but haven’t tried.

By “tomorrow” I mean October 25th. For those of you who are out there drinking water, applying sunscreen, or otherwise not chronically online 🥲
