Tricomin Spray Update

Well, I used Folligen spray about 4x per week for about 6 months before making the switch to tricomin. After 6 months, I still have almost 1/2 bottle of foligen left in the cabinet - and may return to it for a change of pace someday. I got used to applying that stuff - which was difficult at first because it was so green and runny. My biggest beef w/ the folligen spray was that after you applied it - it left your hair looking kinda ookey.

Tricomin - what a difference.

It's much more user friendly. I like the fact that you can apply it to a dry or wet scalp - versus folligen's dry only application.

I use it every day. 1x, sometimes 2x per day.

After 1 month - I've gone through almost 1/2 bottle. So it looks as if one bottle will get me through maybe 2.5 months. The price tag is a negative. Close to $50 per bottle.

But it goes on easy, drys pretty quickly, and leaves your hair looking OK afterwards. I'll give tricomin its full 6 months before switching back to folligen. I plan on trying American Crew someday also.

I wish I could say my hair's regowing to it's former luster - but I can't. At least I know I'm trying. And I'm giving the tricomin revitalizing spray 2 thumbs up.

Why "dry scalp only" for using folligen therapy spray? :?

> Why "dry scalp only" for using folligen therapy spray?

Don't know - but that's what they say.

Another folligen anecdote . . .

I'd read where Dr. Lee had said it'd be OK to apply folligen immediately after applying xandrox15 - as the folligen would act like an oclusive layer and help keep the xandrox better absorbed or something . . .

What a friggin' mistake - I only did it one time.

Usually you can rub the folligen in so there's no hint of the green color - but the consistencey of xandrox15 is like fast drying elmer's glue - and to put something green on top of that was just too weird.

That green folligen just sat on my scalp. I don't think it even penetrated through the xandrox15.

Thats why I put the folligen spray on first. I wonder if it is okay to do that. I sure hope. It still looks greener than the incredible hulk though......either way. :?
