Rogaine and yellow nails???

[DoneWithIt]

Does anyone have this problem but me?
I use the rogaine 5% foam and notice the fingers i use to rub the foam onto my scalp has a strong yellow tint.
the fingers i dont use do not have the yellow tint, and i never had yellow nails prior to rogaine.
being a girl i cover it up with nail polish anyway but its annoying still.
and oh i do always wash my hands with warm water and soap after applying rogaine.

Have never heard of this?
Are you sure its not reacting with any product on your nails already, like a clear?
Try doing what I do. Place it on the head and use a fine comb/brush to really get it in there.
I barely use my fingers anymore.

i do always paint my nails but i notice since rogaine the fingers i use to rub in the product are yellow and the nail polish on those fingers kinda cracks too so i have to paint them more often.. :S
this is weird, i've never heard of yellow nails as a side effect of rogaine either but it's definitely the rogaine as i never ever had this problem before and i painted my nails before too!
and it's not because i dont wash my hands after cause im always careful to wash them right away and very well.
thanks for the tip though
