After doing research Minoxidil sounded like a good idea taken with finpecia. So I just starting taking it & rubbing it into my temples & hairline. It feels like it's burning the scalp & as alot of people having flaking of the skin. It also looks very red aswell. With this in mind I got to ask if this is actually gonna do more good than not to my hair. I also notice alot of people talking about shedding alot of hair & it not growing back after using this stuff. I would love to know from all people that have tryed this or currently use it, there findings in this matter, I gotta say it fuckin confusses the sh*t out of me????

Many thanks to everyone for your time & help

shedding on minoxidil is quite normal, and seems to be part of the regrowth process.

are you using spectral.dnc ? that stuff does burn because of the capsicum, it's normal. if not, i would stop for a few days to see if it goes down.

Wrong. Taken from Divine Skin website:

Ivy, Hops and Capsicum Herbal Extracts penetrate deep into the scalp next to the roots, speeding up the circulation and the nutrition of the affected tissues, recovering the weakened hair strands. This formula promotes better circulation to the scalp, addresses damaging free radicals with potent antioxidants, helps to block DHT and fights harmful bacteria. This dramatically boosts the effectiveness of Minoxidil and Aminexil SP94 and promotes hair that is healthy and strong

I SUGGEST YOU READ THE BOTTLE


I SUGGEST YOU EMAIL DIVINESKIN. It appears you don't even have the current version of Spectral DNC which now contains Adenosine and Procyanidins. I'm sure their website would not state that the product contained capsicum if it did not. Here is a link to the pdf file for the current package insert which indicates the same thing and I've just emailed them to confirm.

Oh look Otis...there are veggies in Spectral DNC.



Dear ,

Thank you for your email and your interest in Spectral DNC.

Yes, Spectral DNC contains Capsicum at a 1% concentration. Capsicum is contained in Spectral DNC's compound of Herbal Extracts.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Have a great week!

i have the latest version
You obviously never bought it your self
if you did you would read the ingredients on the bottle and yes mine has procyanidin in it.and yes herbal etracts but not what you are talking about.
Dont go by the web site that is selling it.

So you're trying to say that the email I posted above is incorrect iformation and you, Otis, are correct? It's directly from the manufacturer of the product, Einstein. I think they would know what they put in their mix. Anyway, I'm done arguing this point with someone who obviously can't accept that they're wrong. Believe what you want dude.
