00:00Hi, in this video I want to show you this Amazon Basic Care Minoxidil Foam.
00:05So this is basically hair regrowth treatment and it contains 5% minoxidil.
00:10So I'm going to open it up and show you what it looks like.
00:12So this is something that I have been using for a while and yeah, it works pretty well.
00:18It's supposed to work for most people.
00:20It doesn't work for everyone.
00:21So if it's something you're thinking of trying, I mean, maybe try it.
00:25It has really good directions and it talks about like how to use it.
00:28And in this video, I'm just going to show you what it looks like and I'm going to put some
00:32on so you can see what it looks like.
00:34So you get 1, 2, and 3.
00:41Now I've been using the liquid version of this product.
00:45This is my first time purchasing the foam version.
00:48Now I have other foam I use.
00:50That's a different brand and I've tried most of the brands.
00:53And the thing with these is it takes so long to see results.
00:56It's really hard to say, okay, this brand is better than this brand.
01:00So what I usually do is I try to buy brands that I consider personally reputable.
01:04So for example, Amazon, at least Amazon Basics, all the Amazon brands are pretty good.
01:10So Amazon Basic Care is an Amazon brand.
01:13So I decided to try it.
01:14So this is what it looks like.
01:18And to undo it, you have to line up the arrows.
01:22So there's an arrow here and there's an arrow here.
01:24So if I just pull, it's not going to open, okay?
01:26You have to line up these little arrows and then you pull.
01:29It's a really weird system.
01:31And I know it's that way because the other brands I've used are the same.
01:36Okay, so then you just put some on like this.
01:39You're supposed to use half a capful.
01:41I'm just going to put a little bit just to show you for demonstration purposes.
01:47There we go.
01:48Just a little bit there.
01:49And you're supposed to just basically put it where you have the hair loss.
01:52So I have some hair loss in the typical area up here.
01:56So I just rub it in and you're good to go.
01:58Now, compared to the liquid, it's different, right?
02:02It's different.
02:02Some people prefer the foam because they feel that you can rub it in better.
02:06With the liquid, you could also rub it in.
02:08So I kind of just go back and forth between the two.
02:11I do both.
02:13I do the liquid and I do the foam.
02:16So then you want to wash your hands after you use it.
02:19So typically what I do is, oh, and to close it, let me just show you really quick.
02:23You see it won't close.
02:24You have to line up the arrows to close it.
02:26You see that?
02:27See the little arrow here and the little arrow here?
02:29So now it should snap into place.
02:32There we go.
02:33So typically I use this in the morning when I wake up and then at night before I go to
02:40bed.
02:40So right now it's neither.
02:41So I'm using a little bit extra just for the purposes of this video.
02:44It doesn't have a scent.
02:46Yeah, and it doesn't really.
02:47And yeah, it takes several months to see results.
02:50And the directions indicate that.
02:52You know, you have to be patient.
02:54It's one of those things that, you know, if you're thinking about trying it, I say try it.
03:00Definitely read the directions.
03:01The directions will kind of give you some, you know, indication of what to expect.
03:05And they also give you hope because this stuff does actually work for a lot of people.
03:09So I think it's worth trying and see what happens in your situation.
03:15These are the directions it comes with.
03:19So it tells you everything you need to do.
03:22How to prep your hands.
03:24Prep hands with cold water, it says.
03:25Interesting.
03:26Yeah, and then you're supposed to wash your hands when you're done.
03:29It talks about the Aero as well.
03:31So yeah, pretty cool.
03:33I've used these products before.
03:35I've tried multiple brands off Amazon.
03:38And again, it's really hard to say that, you know, one brand is better than the other.
03:42So what I do is I just rotate.
03:44I try different stuff.
03:46And each of these should last about a month, I believe.
03:48It should be a three-month supply.
03:49Usually that's how it works.
03:50Yeah, three-month supply.
03:52It's typically how it works.
03:54Also, Amazon Basic Care also has the little liquid drops.
03:57I bought those.
03:58It's been a few months.
03:59And I've used them all.
04:00So I don't have any more.
04:01So I decided this time to try the foam out.
04:04So, so far, so good.
04:06I just got it.
04:07And I will finish all three of these.
04:10And it's just something that I use, you know, on the regular.
04:13You know, I use it in the morning.
04:14And I use it before I go to bed at night.
04:17So I think it's kind of cool.
04:18Amazon has a brand.
04:19And they're selling these.
04:20So it's pretty cool.
04:21Exciting.
04:22I hope this video has been helpful.
04:23And if you're thinking about getting it, I say try it.
04:25See what happens.
04:26Oh, as far as side effects.
04:28So I did have side effects once with a different brand.
04:31It was, I won't mention the brand, but it was basically the liquid drops.
04:35It wasn't this brand.
04:37And I think it had, like, alcohol in it.
04:39And it had too much.
04:41And it kind of just, like, irritated my scalp.
04:42So what I did was I switched to, like, a foam and a different brand for, like, a couple days.
04:47And then it went away.
04:48So something to keep in mind.
04:50If you have irritation, just scale back, right?
04:52Stop or scale back.
04:53And it should go away.
04:55I've never had irritation with any of the foams I've used.
04:58It's only been with the liquid.
04:59And it was another brand.
05:00And it was the drops.
05:03So, yeah.
05:03And all it was, it was itchy scalp.
05:06It just kind of dried out my scalp.
05:07This doesn't really dry out my scalp.
05:09So that's it.
05:09I hope it's been helpful.
05:10And good luck in your hair loss journey.
05:12Hopefully, you can get some of your hair back.
05:14Take care.
