For those suffering with male or female patterned baldness (or wanting to prevent it), minoxidil is a go-to solution to help stem the loss of hair. But what percentage of minoxidil is best? With our catalog offering as much as 5 percent, 10 percent, and even 15 percent amounts of minoxdil in our formula, which one does one pick?

We just want to say, less is definitely more, especially when it comes to the powerful nature of 2% minoxidil products for regrowing hair. If you want to begin a treatment that will stem hair loss, we suggest starting off with Xandrox's 2% minoxidil solution, before you order anything larger.

Products that have a larger percentage of minoxidil are not suitable for every situation. Sometimes, these dosages of minoxidil can cause adverse affects for sensitive scalps, such as itchiness or dryness. A smaller dosage gets the job done, without heavy side-effects. In addition, 2% minoxidil is especially recommended to women, because it is less likely to cause hair growth in other places when used. Even when minoxidil is carefully applied to the scalp, the hormone imbalance that it causes can affect hair growth in places such as the upper lip, arm pits, and more. To reduce those side effects in women, 2% is a great dosage.

Usually, most people are happy with the 2% solution, especially if they just started noticing hair loss, or are taking preventative measures of hair loss or thinning due to knowing their family history when it comes to baldness. Until you try the 2% version, we don't recommend going past that, unless you know it is ineffective.
