Hey guys,this is probably one of the most ridiculous stories you'll hear,I went to the Doctor cuz my hair is thin,ALOPEXY (Minoxidil) 5% was included in the prescribtion alongside with BIOXINE shampoo,so I washed my hair with BIOXINE in the morning and I applied Minoxidil at night,and there I was,reading the notice with Minoxidil,I noticed that one of the side effects is changing in the texture and color of the hair,and ooh boy I freaked out,so I googled Minoxidil to see other ppl's experiences,and yeah...a lot of ppl experience hair texture's changing and shedding from the first week and stuff.
I personally love my wavy hair (loose waves) which resembles straight hair and don't want anything hapening to my texture.

SO,here's my question in a nutshell : WILL MINOXIDIL AFFECT MY HAIR AFTER USING IT FOR JUST 1 HOUR??? I hope you guys answer me cuz I'm really scared,Thanks.

Yes, there is no going back. Either you continue or you will lose all the remaining hair..

Do not read about finasteride or minoxidil on the internet - period. There is nothing by scare-mongering from a mixture of hypochondriacs and some who likely did suffer the rare side effects.

So Crespo88 is trolling? Will Minoxidil affect me? Btw does BIOXINE shampoo have the same "side-effects",like "all the benefits gained from it goes away after using it (or worse)" or "texture changing"??

I'm sorry if I don't seem serious,I have no experience in the hair loss field,I don't know what could happen,that's why I'm asking stupid questions
I see now that you're 18.
No, you won't shed any hair after ONE application.
No, your texture won't change after ONE application.

But... the real question is: why did you want to use minoxidil in the first place? Because hair is thinning. When hair thins, do you think it maintains the same texture it had when it wasn't thin? No. The first thing that happens to thinning hair is that its volume and possibility to comb it go SOUTH

Well my hair isn't THINNING,it's already a bit thin,and I noticed that around 3 years ago,but it's probably thin even before that,anyway I thought I could improve what I have

This. You're pretty much doomed once you've started Minoxidil. I think it's time for the big guns dutasteride / RU / Oral spironolactone for you my dear friend, I don't see any other way around this.
