what is going on guys my name is Mira
and welcome to the new office this is
gonna be the new space that we're gonna
be filming in so I hope you like it let
me know some things that we're gonna be
working in the background so just let me
know if you have some ideas on what to
put on the walls or actually I'm
thinking of making this like the main
space to film this wall back here but I
don't have a couch and I'm probably
gonna put a couch over there and maybe
an LED strip or whatever but till that's
in the work in the background will work
with this background for now and let me
know what you guys think about this one
anyways today I want to talk to you
about that a things that you should know
if you're thinking about using Rogaine
Rogaine is something that I've been
using for the past like two and a half
almost three years now and these are
just eight things that are the most
common things that I wish that I knew
when I started and some common things
that I've been getting DMS from from you
guys on Instagram in the comment section
below and you know there's frequently
asked questions that I think need to be
answered so with that being said what
the hell are we waiting for without any
further ado let's go ahead and jump
right into the video the first thing
that you should know about Rogaine is if
you want to use it if you plan to use it
do not expect 100% of your hair to grow
back that's just the truth of it Rogaine
is never guaranteeing you that you're
gonna be restored with a full head of
hair all this simply does is it helps
prevent hair loss by freezing your hair
by word ad and potentially restoring up
to 30 to 40% of your hair so if you are
going in with a bald head and thinking
that oh by using Rogaine I'm gonna have
a full head of hair like how I had when
I was I don't know 13 years old then
you're gonna set yourself up for some
major disappointment so realize that
Rogaine is simply a freezing factor
where it's just gonna basically freeze
your hair where it's at so the balding
doesn't at least progress any further
but it's not actually going to restore a
100% of your hair if you want to restore
your hair and stop it from the root
which is excess DHT then you should
maybe look into finasteride as it is a
drug that does come with some side
effects but weigh out your pros
Conn's and see if you're a good fit for
that number two it takes time this is
something you guys who DM me two months
in asking me yo this stuff is not
kicking in instead I'm losing hair you
need to realize that rule game takes
time it goes with your hair process so
don't worry about gaining your hair bag
or seeing results or seeing a decrease
in your hair loss until I'll say at
least the fourth or fifth month that's
when the complete process actually
begins and the process of the hair jus
Venetian will start that's when you'll
actually start seeing some kind of
result until then hold tight and keep
using it twice a day and be patient with
the process number three in the
beginning stages of using Rogaine you
need to expect hair loss
this is otherwise known as the Shetty
phase which happens within the first
month or two where rogen basically comes
in and it kills all the week hair and
the hair cycle actually kicks in in your
hair comes back and a gross bag fuller
thicker and stronger so as we said just
continue using it don't freak out when
you see hair loss don't freak out when
you see yourself abnormally going bald
just stick with the process be patient
with it stay consistent and those
balding spots that you see will recover
and this 100% normal and it's just part
of the process number four this might be
a tough pill to swallow for most of us
the usage of Rogaine and minoxidil will
have to become part of your daily
routine this is not something it you can
just use get results from and just ditch
it and they feed don't and if you choose
to just use it for the results and ditch
it do you're actually gonna lose your
results and look even worse than you
were before so this is actually a very
big drawback that sets back most people
from using minoxidil this is actually a
huge factor that you should consider
before even starting the treatment is
this something that you can see doing
for as long as maybe you can afford a
hair transplant or maybe they have a
better solution out there or this is
just something that you just don't want
to do because it can get expensive
personally it's not a big deal to me
because I just see it as if
dialing my hair so whenever I'm styling
my hair with my pomade I'll just throw
and Rogin over there it's really not a
big deal to me and I found a way to kind
of make it more of a natural thing to me
rather than a process where I have to go
through a bathroom apply it and make the
process very long and painful and hard
and number five if the benefits outweigh
the cost for you and if you guys do end
up saying yes I'm gonna do this yes I
don't mind using Rogaine if you want to
save yourself from a lot of itchiness a
lot of irritation a lot of mess a lot of
just nasty
unorganized mess then do not use the
liquid when I first got into using
minoxidil I wish someone had told me
this before I bought a three month
supply of the liquid because the liquid
when you put it on it's just very nasty
you put it on and then it starts
drizzling in the back of your ear and
goes in the back of your neck and very
unorganized very messy compared to the
foam the foam you can just shake up the
bottle put some in your hair and just
apply to the specific area where you
need it a lot of people care to argue
with me and they say in the comments
like yo the liquid is more effective it
does this it does that but it's honesty
it's all the same thing it's all about
how you apply it if you're applying it
to the right spot and it doesn't matter
if it's a foam or a liquid they will
both equally give you the same result so
guys if you have the option to pick
between foam or liquid please do go with
the foam will make your life a whole lot
easier and it will save you from a lot
of irritation a lot of itchiness and a
lot of mess in the future especially if
this is your daily routine you don't
want to make a mess
number six this is from my guys out
there who think Rogaine is overrated ly
expensive and I want you to realize that
Rogaine is not the only plan you can get
monoxide from there's so many brands out
there there's like Kirkland there's hims
there's keeps there's all these other
subscription services and things that
help make minoxidil actually more
affordable than you may think
so don't think that you're just limited
to the Rogaine brand because at the end
of the day Rogaine is just a brand but
they all create one similar thing which
is minoxidil minoxidil across-the-board
are pretty much the same so I don't
think that you're using the Rogaine
or the Kirkland brand will affect your
results you can go with either or the
reason why I personally like Rogaine
morris because I just like the density
of the foam it feels a little thicker
and I can control it in my hand more
when I work it in for me it just feels
better and for some reason for me one
little bottle of Rogaine last me longer
than the same sized bottle of Kirkland
maybe it's just me but that's just my
preference you don't have to stick to my
preference you can do your own research
and at the end of the day minoxidil is
minoxidil does not matter what brand
created it it will still give you the
same exact results don't think that you
can't afford it don't think that whoa oh
my god this way to expense it's gonna
break the bank but because no honestly
you can get this stuff for like 20 bucks
for a three-month supply I'll actually
go ahead and help you out and link some
affordable stuff in the comment section
below so you don't have to go anywhere
if that's what you're considering the 7
thing that you may want to know about
Rogaine is if you are a good candidate
for some people yeah Rogaine may be
great for them but for others it might
not be so good for you will actually get
the best results from Rogaine one is if
you're balding for less than five years
- if you hadn't gone completely bald yet
and three if your bald spot is less than
four to six inches so back here if your
if your boss spot is basically from here
to here it's you're probably not a good
fit you know and you want to be
realistic with this stuff you don't want
to end up wasting your money and time in
your first just to be let down evaluate
yourself to see if you're a good
candidate for this if not then there are
always other options out there and that
leads me to the last thing that I'm
gonna say about hair loss and Rogaine on
all these other treatments out there
that are for balding men like us I want
you guys to know that Rogan is actually
not the only option
out there for you if you fall into the
category that I listed where you've been
maybe balding for more than five years
or that bald spot is maybe too big maybe
it's actually time to consider a hair
transplant you know if you actually want
your hair bad enough if not just
completely accepted shave it off Rochard
with a beard and you will be just fine
it's all about how you feel about it and
if you feel confident in your skin into
rock of bald head and for other people
out there who want to see results with
their hair but are not ready to actually
commit with Rogaine
and make it part of their daily routine
there are definitely other options out
there like I restore which is a laser
hair growth era P company they make
laser hair growth helmets which I would
also highly recommend if you're into the
natural stuff there are natural oil
massages that you can use there's PRP
therapy there is finasteride there's all
these different things that you can use
to actually maximize your hair growth
and minimize the hair loss itself and
I've actually created a video on the six
things I've used to reduce my hair loss
and to basically restore my hair so if
you want to check that out I'll link it
up there and in the description below
guys I hope I answer some of your basic
questions that you guys had about using
minoxidil I know it can get confusing
cuz there's so much information out
there so I just took basically the most
common ask questions and I put them in a
video so let me know what you guys
thought about this video in the comment
section below and let me know what I can
add to the office as well because I am
still wondering and I'm not really you
