    Default Rogaine question

    Hi. For the past 9 months I have been using Rogaine 5% liquid. However, my job requires me to travel and I am currently in a country that only sells Rogaine 5% foam and Rogaine 2% liquid. I thought I had enough to last until I return home but it looks like I am going to be about 3 days short. My question is, if I were to purchase the foam solution and use that for the time being should I notice a difference? Since it is the same strength but just a different form I am hoping I should be okay. What are your thoughts?

    Even if you didnt use it for 3 days you would be OK. So yes

    Even though you're probably right.. I hate the feeling of missing an application. To just confirm - you are saying that you think switching to the foam for a few days will be ok and still do the trick?

    you should switch to the foam permanently... it's the exact same thing dude, once the temp from your scalp warms it, it turns to liquid. absolutely no difference, just easier to apply.

    Really? That's awesome to hear. The only reason I've been using liquid is because I don't have short hair so I think it would be easier for me to apply. That being said I haven't actually tried the foam!

    I think you are right about that, the liquid is much easier to apply than the foam if you have long hair. The liquid also absorbs into the scalp more effectively than the foam. The only reason not to use the liquid is if you cant apply it for some reason (like running out of it (; ), or if you have an allergic reaction to it.
