When used, it works. You must continue to use it though.

iachick, have you tried Wen Tea Tree Oil?
I did a comparison of the two on the Wen forum a while ago.
I have such good results from it, I cut back on my Rogaine use.
I have been using Wen Tea Tree Oil on my entire head (hairline to nape, ear to ear) since March. My hair is course and curly. As of right now, I have new growth that is fine (not downy) and straight. My hairline is filling out also, to the point where I see less forehead.
I use it prior to every Wen cleanse, so 2-3 times a week at night.
It doesn't have the shedding period that Rogaine does, so I saw growth quicker. I also don't have to be concerned about using it on healthy hair. All of my hair and scalp benefit from it.
Rogaine is every day, twice a day. Wen Tea Tree Oil is 2-3 times a week.
I now use Rogaine on the edge of my hairline. It frames my face, so I don't want the shedding that will occur when I stop using it. I also use Rogaine on my crown. There was a bald spot there, but, because of Rogaine, the hair has come in and it's completely covered.
When my new hairs get longer, I'll stop using the Rogaine and solely use Wen Tea Tree Oil.

Question: Does it change hair color? My hair is white and I don't want regrowth of darker hair like I had before I got older. I like the white!
Thanks!

Maren, Rogaine doesn't change hair color. I'm about 5% grey and Rogaine hasn't caused any color change. My new hairs grow in as my natural color.

The foam process sounds much more doable,. Here's a video that I looked at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOU_GNPnf6I
My dermatologist also said it was the only truly reliable method.
It really isn't!
I do it after I brush my teeth. I apply it to my crown and the edge of my hairline in the morning and at night. Like iachick said, you just work it in with your morning and night regimens. It takes less than a minute.
Thanks, HonnyBrown, that's good to know. Appreciate getting your perspective. This is an informative thread
That's great that you are having such good results from Wen's tea tree oil. I'm going to have to look that up...it sounds good.
I was curious about another product which apparently some people take while using Rogaine. Has anyone tried Mynoxidrin? a supplement from nexgen Biolabs. $39 for 90 pills, & most people take 2-3 per day. I was really surprised to see it getting 5 star reviews from nearly 157 people on Amazon. I've never seen any hair-regrowth method get such high ratings- has to be rigged.I've just never seen such large scale rigging on amazon.
ETA: never mind; I just checked, and every product from this company is getting unanimous 5 star ratings. And many products have 100-200 reviews. They went to a lot of trouble and expense to fake those ratings! There's so much snake oil out there in the hairloss industry.

mustbuy, you are very welcome!
Rogaine is a lifetime commitment. Keep that in mind when you get it. It takes about 4 months to kick in. It's worth the wait because you get your hair back!

On 12/19/2014 HonnyBrown said:Hearts4, yes, there is a "trick!" It will drip all over if you squeeze the dropper too hard.
Apply a small amount to your fingers and rub it into the desired area. Avoid your healthy hair if possible. Keep doing this until you have finished the dropper. This will work for a part.
If it's a bald spot, just release the dropper slowly while rubbing the medicine in.
Thank you, I tried your suggestion. I still seem to get too much all over my actual hair rather than just on my scalp and then my hair is very sticky after the solution dries. It's hard to comb/style. Guess it takes practice. Plus, the stuff fades my hair color! I imagine it's the alcohol in the formula. Very frustrating, but I will stick with it.
