I walk up early and go for a run, then come back take a shower, apply minoxidil and head to work. After work, late in the afternoon, i go to the swimming pool for like and hour and then take a shower again and head home.
I've read that its better to apply minoxidil to a damp scalp instead of a dry scalp, so its recommended to wet the hair before applying minoxidil. The problem is that to do that at night, i would have to shower again in my home.
My concern is that taking 3 showers will damage my hair. I do not know if its a myth or not but i remember someone telling me that hair should only be washed 2-3 times a week.
I also do not know if the same damage can be done to the hair by just wetting it or damage is done by shampoo.
So what do you think i should do with the night minoxidil? Apply it to a scalp that has been dry for some hours or take another shower and apply it to a damp scalp?
Also, do you think that the water in the swimming pool can damage my hair? Im concerned about the chlorine. However, if that could harm hair then all swimmers would be bald so i do not know..
