RegaineExtra Strength Scalp Cutaneous Foam (3x 73 ml), Treatment for Regrowth in Men with 5% Minoxidil, for Male Hair Loss

I’ve been using the Minoxidil Spray Foam 5% for a few weeks now, and I’m already seeing great results! The application is super easy and convenient, thanks to the spray foam. It absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue, which is a big plus. I’ve noticed some new hair growth, especially around my thinning areas, and my overall hair feels fuller and thicker.The foam is gentle on the scalp and doesn’t irritate my skin, which I’ve experienced with other products in the past. I love how fast it dries and how comfortable it feels once applied. I’m impressed with the effectiveness of this product and would recommend it to anyone looking to combat hair thinning or hair loss.Overall, it’s been a great purchase and worth the investment. I’m excited to continue using it and see even more improvements!

I can’t thank you enough, incredible product. I have been using this this product almost 9 weeks now, and I can already see my beard incredibly well, both my dad, grandfather and even my alder brother they don’t have a beard at all so it is our genetics but with this Regain I am able to grow a beard, thanks team.

I'm a woman in my late 30s who's been losing hair due to a combination of stress, PCOS, and malabsorption for over a decade. It wasn't until the last year or so that I realised my hairline was severely receding. My temples were completely bare and my front hair line had been pushed back significantly, making my already large forehead look even bigger. I'm not a particularly vain person, but I was distressed. I was used to having bald patches on the back of my head that were covered by my waist length hair, but losing hair around my face was new.I looked into the various hair loss treatments, deciding the medication from the doctor had far too many side effects, and the shampoo didn't have nearly enough evidence that it actually worked, and so settled on the over the counter foam. If it didn't work then I'd only wasted 40 quid, and if it did, I could easily justify the price going forwards. It's no more than a coffee a week, if that. Incredibly, the "for women" version is twice the price for half the product, despite having identical ingredients now that they offer the same percentage of minoxidil. They suggest that men use the product twice a day, and women once, so I bought the "for men" for a much better deal and applied it once a day.When they say you'll lose hair when you start treatment, they mean it. But it is hair that you would have lost anyway, as part of the natural hair growth cycle, you're just losing it sooner. All of the hairs that I lost were very thin and weak compared to the rest still in my head. I didn't lose any thick hairs, or chunks, or start balding where I'd applied the product (on my temples and across the front of my hair line, where my hair loss was showing, even though there were many claims that this specific placement wouldn't work). I didn't have any topical reaction to the foam at all, except maybe some slight itching, but that could have been my imagination or even just the summer heat. I just lost the weak hairs that were going to fall out anyway, all at once, over the course of a couple of days. And then nothing.Within about a week of use, I could feel fluff on the previously completely smooth areas I'd been applying the product. Once nightly, although I definitely missed a few days here and there over the longer term. The foam itself dissolves quite quickly on the hand and I was finding it difficult to get it onto my head before it turned to liquid, which then ran down my face, so I started spraying it directly onto my head at one temple and spreading it across the top of my forehead to the other temple before rubbing it all in. Very sloppy, highly unattractive, but it worked for me. I made sure to massage the foam/liquid in to my problem areas until it had been absorbed, just like a moisturiser. Any that dripped down my face just got wiped up as I was washing my hands afterwards. It wasn't a big deal or difficult in any way. I managed to get my hair pretty damp when I was first figuring it out, but it dried down quickly and didn't leave any residue or need washing again or anything. I pretty much halved the amount they suggested using so that it stopped running down my face and didn't see any negative impact.Maybe a month after starting, I was losing one or two hairs every few days. Nothing at all compared to the brush full I'd have to pull off after brushing, or the massive amounts that would actually block the drain when I washed it. I switched to a Tangle Teezer as they're supposed to be more gentle, and carried on my haphazard application every day (or so) until last month, which was the 3 month mark. At this point I hadn't even finished the first of 3 bottles. That happened at 4 months, a few days ago.My hair has always grown fast, but I now have 3-ish inches of brand new growth around both temples and along my front hair line. I look like I'm growing in a rather pathetic fringe. There are still areas on my temples that haven't taken to the treatment and the hair is definitely not as dense as the rest of my head, but given the placement and the fact that I'm fair anyway, I feel like this is normal. I'm now applying the foam once every 3 or 4 days just to maintain what's there and have been doing this for a month so far without any hair loss as a result, although I'd not like to try and go without and have to start again. I've read a lot of people say that their growth started falling out within a week of stopping and complete loss occurred within a couple of months. Just the stuff they grew because of the foam, not their whole heads, this will not make you bald if you're not bald to start with. I've also noticed thickening on my head in areas where I haven't applied the foam, like at the back of my head where I do have thinning and patches but it can't be seen unless my hair is tied up tightly, and along my parting. I assume this is because the drug has entered my blood stream, but I haven't noticed growth anywhere else on my body increasing at all.I wouldn't say I'm a changed woman or that my hair loss has been completely reversed, but there is a very obvious and significant difference in pictures from July and November that I can only attribute to using this product. I had no expectations going in, but knew that if it did work, I'd need to keep using it. I don't see it as any different to taking a prescription medication, except instead of stopping a heart attack or diabetic attack, this stops hair loss. I still have 2 bottles left, and at the rate I go through it, they should last me until this time next year.I'd definitely give it a try if you're curious. A taxi home after a night out will cost you more, and you might end up surprised by the results. And if it doesn't work, there are options from your GP or even transplants if it comes to that. It's not going to work for everyone, but that's normal as we aren't all losing hair for the same reason.

When I say "not enough people", I am including myself within this group. When I bought this product it was somewhat of an impulse purchase. I was losing my hair, and I was panicking about it. I knew If I did nothing about the hair loss, the situation wouldn't improve, so I turned to the internet to research potential products.I initially stayed away from Regaine, due to the price and inconvenience. Presuming each bottle lasts a month it will be costing over £160 per year, which in my opinion is a lot to be spending on hair loss products. It's inconvenient in that it should be applied twice a day, but in all honesty it doesn't take much time. So instead, I started off simple, and cheap- with caffeine shampoos. Hoping that they would do something to slow the hair loss. I can confirm they did nothing of the sort. A completely useless product to treat hair loss. So much so that I believe Alpecin (a popular producer of caffeine shampoo), have recently been banned from saying that their product can reduce hair loss. I believe they can help thicken the hair, and perhaps make the hair stronger, which in itself makes them a better option than your regular supermarket shampoos. However, in terms of hair loss- nothing.I was losing my hair at a greater rate than ever now. It was then that I decided to turn to Regaine. As I said, it was somewhat of an impulse purchase. I was losing my hair, and Regaine is supposedly one of the most effective hair loss treatments. I put the price and inconvenience aside, and without doing much further research, I decided to purchase it. What could go wrong? Well as it turns out- a lot.A couple of days after using it I started to notice myself losing more hair than usual while in the shower, but initially I thought nothing of it. After all, it does state in the product information (although very unclearly) that hair loss may temporarily increase as the hairs are making way for "new, thicker hairs!". So I thought nothing of it, and stuck with it until a few days later when once again I lost a lot of hairs in the shower- even more than usual. My hairline looked visibly worse than it did before starting Regaine. Considering the reason I started using Regaine was to improve my hair loss situation, these were very worrying signs as Regaine was making my hair loss worse rather than better. With that in mind, I decided to further research into the product and discovered that this initial shed of hair is very common and in some cases can be very bad, which really isn't made clear by the manufacturer. I also found out that Regaine doesn't actually help hair loss as it does nothing to block DHT (as finasteride does), rather it regrows temporary hairs in the areas which it was applied. Unfortunately, all these hairs will be lost within months of using Minoxidil, essentially making this a life long commitment. If you want to keep the "regrown" hairs, you will have to buy this product every month and apply it twice a day for the rest of your life. This creates further issues in that Regaine is often said to stop working within 5 years of use. After this research I decided to stop using immediately. This was after just 5 days of applying it once/twice a day. I decided that it would be better to stop using it as soon as possible.And then...came further problems. After I stopped using it, I started losing hair at even greater rate (much more than before I began using Regaine). I also developed a very itchy scalp, which was something I've never suffered from previously. And this itchy scalp still remains a month after I've stopped using the product. So just over a month after using Minoxidil, my hairline is in a much worse position and I have an almost constant itch. It is crazy to think of all the negative consequences after using this product for just 5 DAYS.In conclusion, I would not recommend this product to anyone. That is unless you're fully committed to using this product every day, for the rest of your life. And are willing to accept that your hair will get worse before it gets better...along with the possible negative health consequences. What I do recommend, is to work on improving your health, diet, try to relieve yourself from stress and make sure you're getting enough sleep.These are all things that can accelerate the hair loss process. It's important to not panic- hair loss is inevitable for most men and without hair transplants and more advanced (and expensive) treatments, is irreversible. Accept you're losing your hair and do your best to slow the process. Don't turn to falsified products such as Regaine. Products I do recommend are Nizoral and Regenepure shampoos, both of these I believe have minimally helped with my hair loss, and I haven't experienced any negative side effects from using them. Just make sure to condition every time you shampoo, because they can dry out your hair.Good luck on your hair loss endeavour.
