This is a question that bugs me.

We all know it grows hair, but don't you have to stay on it permanently to maintain the hair growth?

That's expensive, and bad for your cardiovascular health, not to mention how toxic it is to animals, id have to get rid of my pets.

Oh yeah and the shedding phase

peppermint oil, is about a dollar a bottle and is insane for hair growth

(Sa-saline)
(Jo-jojoba oil)
(Mxd- 2% minoxidil)
(Peo- peppermint oil)

So why shouldn't we just take peppermint oil instead, since there's ZERO harmful side effects and is cheap

Not sure, been on 5% topical 2x a day on lashes alone and seen an insane amount of growth in the last 2.5 months, haven't had any side effects at all so far.

Also paid like 25 bucks for a bottle which lasted me roughly 2,5 months and I just ran out yesterday but have a backup on hand.

Because I don’t think there’s as much evidence peppermint works and defiantly nowhere near as much

Pretty sure minoxidil results are FAR superior to peppermint Oil, and also WAY more researched since Minoxidils purpose is to regrow hair. (This is from my knowledge anyways)

Also, Ive been using topical minoxidil for a while, BUT ive seen almost no result from it and 0 side effects.

Its all kinda weird.

How are you applying it and where? I've only had progress

Twice a day on my eyebrows. Rubbing it in, using a good amount. Im planning to switch to oral

Interesting, I put topical on a cotton swab and smear it on my upper and bottom lashes, works great imo, haven't done brows since I already have thick ones so it might differ
