Select one component per category. Your build updates in real time.

Your base treatment. Topical 5% is the evidence-backed standard. Oral requires a prescription.
Rogaine 5% Foam (3-mo)$44
Gold standard. Dries in minutes. Propylene glycol-free — fewer scalp reactions than liquid.
Rogaine 5% Liquid (3-mo)$32
Original formula with dropper. Slower to dry. Contains propylene glycol — may irritate sensitive scalps.
Generic 5% Foam (3-mo)$22
Same 5% minoxidil. Kirkland or Equate at half the brand price. Identical active ingredient.
Generic 5% Liquid (6-mo)$18
Budget king. Six-month supply. Best cost-per-day. Requires patience — takes 4+ months to see results.
Oral Minoxidil (Rx)$12/mo
Low-dose 2.5mg pill. No topical mess. Systemic — may cause body hair growth. Requires doctor visit.
Boosts minoxidil absorption up to 4x. Weekly sessions at 0.5-1.5mm depth. Wait 24hrs before applying minox.
Dermaroller 0.5mm$12
Entry-level titanium roller. Replace every 2-3 months. 192 needles, weekly use.
Dermaroller 1.0mm$15
Deeper penetration for stubborn areas. Studies show 1.0mm optimal for hair regrowth stimulation.
Dermastamp 1.0mm$18

Switch between 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm. Start low, work up. One tool for your whole protocol.
These products support your minoxidil results. Ketoconazole shampoo pairs especially well — it reduces scalp DHT.
Ketoconazole Shampoo 1%$14
Nizoral. Anti-fungal + mild DHT blocker. Use 2-3x/week. Synergistic with minoxidil per studies.
Biotin + Zinc Supplement$12
10,000mcg biotin, 15mg zinc daily. Supports keratin infrastructure. Won't regrow hair alone.
Caffeine Scalp Serum$18
Leave-in caffeine stimulates follicle blood flow. Apply between minoxidil sessions. The Ordinary or Alpecin.
DHT-Blocking Shampoo$22
Saw palmetto + zinc pyrithione formula. Reduces scalp DHT when combined with ketoconazole protocol.
Tools that improve accuracy, absorption, and consistency. Not essential, but they make the protocol easier.
Precision Dropper$8
Calibrated 1mL glass dropper for liquid minoxidil. Precise dosing, less waste, targeted application.
Scalp Massager$12
Silicone bristle brush. 2-min daily massage boosts scalp blood flow. Helps product absorption.
Travel Protocol Case$15
Waterproof zip case fits minoxidil, roller, and supplements. Never miss a dose on the road.
Compatibility: Wait 24 hours after microneedling before applying minoxidil. Foam is gentler on sensitive scalps. Ketoconazole and minoxidil are a proven pairing — use keto 2-3x/week on non-minoxidil wash days.
