minoxidil Residue

[robmartin]

What is a good minoxidil to use if you don't want to get a lot of residue? I've used Kirkland and it makes my head look like it's snowing year round.

It doesnt make your head greasy? only with residue? I get both.
I think if you use rogaine foam youll have almost no residue.

I've tried the foam, the regular liquid, and dr. lee's liquid (#500).

Regular liquid caused dandruff and didn't dry readily, so it left a greasy residue.

Dr. Lee's caused less dandruff and leaves very little residue unless applied too generously - then it leaves a white powdery residue.

Foam caused no dandruff and dries like light hair gel, not powdery or greasy. So in this respect it is best. However, it has a strong fragrance that I found annoying, so I've been using Dr. Lee's.
