Should Minoxidil be applied to wet or dry hair?

Minoxidil should always be applied to a dry scalp for proper absorption. If your hair is damp or freshly washed, moisture can dilute the product or prevent it from reaching the scalp.

At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we recommend waiting at least 30 minutes after showering before applying Minoxidil. Similarly, avoid washing your hair for at least 4 hours after application to allow the product to absorb effectively.

If you use styling products, apply Minoxidil first, let it dry completely and then style your hair as usual.

Maintaining a consistent routine helps maximise results and ensures the product works as intended. If you’re unsure how to integrate Minoxidil into your daily routine, the team at Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic can help create a simple application schedule.
