    Default Rogaine is working but shedding tiny hairs??

    Been using rogaine for 2 months now, and it's working! I'm no longer using my normal hair, but instead I'm no shedding a lot if tiny thin hairs. What's going on?!

    115 views and no replies? Perhaps it's due to my original post being full of spelling errors (wrote from my smartphone). The correct post should have been:

    Sheds tend to be a good sign when starting minox, usually what happens is you'll shed smaller weaker hairs and stronger ones will take their place. Also the sheds can come any time in the first few months of starting, not always right away.

    The thing that's bothering me is that I'm now into my 3rd month of using rogaine liquid, and this kind of shedding is something I haven't seen before. 2-3 weeks after using rogaine my shedding stopped until this month so I didn't experience any shedding for over 2 months, so why now? I do tend to only apply it once a day sometimes. It's just sad to see that what seemed to work in the beginning is losing its effectiveness and btw; some of the hairs that I'm shedding ATM are thick as well as thin hairs
