Should I Apply Minoxidil After a Hot Shower?

1- is it good to use minoxidil after my scalp pores are opened by steam (should I use it after I take a hot shower)?

2- what is the best thing I could do to make minoxidil work faster and more effective?

thanks

1. In my opinion, hot showers or steam do not matter as long as you use the minoxidil as directed (twice a day).

2. The best thing to make a medication work is to use it as directed. One small study suggested that using a microneedling instrument before applying minoxidil did help some men see greater results, but I don’t have much direct experience with this method. You can read more about that study here.
