    Minoxidil for intermediate hairs?

    Hey all, does minoxidil turn intermediate hairs on the hairline into terminal hair? If so, how long does this process take?
    I am currently using minoxidil 5% nightly and nizoral 2% every 3 days

      Minoxidil usually does not work in the hair line for males. If you are one of the few lucky guys for whom it will work in your hair line, it can take 12 to 18 months before you will know it.

        I have never seen this happen in my patients. It sometimes takes very tiny minturized hairs and turns them into small miniturized hairs.
