same effect happent to me.i lost more hair with rogaine foam.i used 2 months.i hope those hairs come back.but i think there is a problem with rogaine.i wrote johson & johson company and fda.i used rogaine foam before also but it didnt make my hair like this.maybe they changed its formula.if my hair doesnt come back,i will apply to court.

You were not losing hair in the first place. How many people think they have hair loss while it's just their short hairstyle and their scalp being visible because of the angle the picture was taken. Anyway, shedding is normal after a month on minoxidil.

LOL good luck with that. In all seriousness, shedding early on is considered normal.

Looking at your pics, I would say it is normal. It sucks, but shedding is a normal part of using hair loss treatments. Stick with it, and be prepared for tremendous regrowth.
