Rogaine Women's Rogaine 5% Minoxidil Foam-Review
Product Claims Of Women’s Rogaine 5% Minoxidil Foam
This is our review of Women’s Rogaine 5% Minoxidil Foam, manufactured by Rogaine. This product claims that it can regrow thinning hair in as little as 12 weeks for initial regrowth and for results that can be seen, in some 24 weeks, with daily use. It is said that the product can help with the hair loss that women suffer due to genetics and other factors.
Ingredients
The product’s most active ingredients include:
- Minoxidil 5% - The main ingredient in hair loss reversal products for men and women. In its infancy during the 1950’s, it was often used to treat ulcers and in the late 1970’s in tablet form to treat high blood pressure.
- Purified water
- Stearyl alcohol - An organic compound used in hair conditioners, cosmetics, lubricants, and more.
- Citric acid - An edible acid that is found in fruits, especially citrus fruits like lemons and limes.
Although our research shows that this product does not have some essential ingredients like Vitamin C or Vitamin D, it worries us some that it does contain propane and butane which make it potentially flammable.
Dosage Instructions
This product is not taken internally and it is recommended that consumers follow the exact directions for best results. Using more than is suggested will not enhance hair regrowth or make it grow any faster or thicker. Using less than the recommended dose will also not work in your favor.
The instructions indicate that you should use half of a capful once a day and to apply it directly to the scalp where the hair loss area is. Step by step instructions are given to the customer with the package or a how-to-use video may be watched online.
In our research of the item, we found that there are several warnings that the customer should be aware of. Customers interested in buying the product should fully read and understand all of the warnings prior to making a purchase.
Cost and Guarantee
The product is available in two and four-month quantities. The prices found on the company’s website range from $29.99 for a two-month supply up to $69.99 for an eight-month supply. There are coupon codes and rebates available to customers to save money.
The company offers a 30-day money back guarantee on any product that is unopened. Due to the special handling of the products by the courier, they must be returned in their original shipping box, and customer service will need to be called before returning any items.
Summary Of Our Women’s Rogaine 5% Minoxidil Foam Review
Our review of Women's Rogaine 5% Minoxidil Foam concludes that it has its advantages. Chief among them are the fact that studies have shown that the product has a success rate of over 75%, and the product is FDA approved and tested clinically.
If you begin treatment and see results, and then stop the treatment, hair will begin thinning again. Basically, if it works for you, you are chained to this product. We're also unimpressed with the limited money-back guarantee and have some concern about the percentage of negative product reviews on Amazon (at the time of writing). While a small majority of the Amazon customer feedback was positive, a notable minority was not.
