Applying Regaine®

Do's and don'ts
Getting into a routine

By incorporating Regaine® into your daily routine, it will soon become a natural part of your day, just like brushing your teeth.
   Once in the morning
   Once in the evening, about half an hour before going to bed
   Leave roughly 12 hours between applications

Some routine advice
   For the best results, you must use your chosen Regaine® product twice a day, every day. There's no point doing it more often – it won't make any difference. And if you miss a treatment, you can't make up for it by using more the next day.
   The best plan of action is to simply slot it into your daily routine. Just a few minutes morning and night and before long you'll be doing it in your sleep. Although we don't actually recommend that.
   In the evening, you should apply your chosen Regaine® product at least half an hour before you go to bed, so that it has time to soak into your scalp and doesn't rub off on your pillow.
   If you’re used to using hair styling products you might find NEW Regaine® for Men Gel easier to apply but remember to apply this gel to the scalp, not your hair.
   Try to make sure that you always have enough available to continue treatment from one bottle to the next.
   Regaine® Extra Strength is available in a triple pack. This is a more cost-effective way of buying Regaine®, and also means you'll never get caught short and have to miss any treatments. Buy online at www.pharmacy2u.co.uk and you don't even have to leave the house!
   We also suggest you use our gentle, non-silicon based shampoo called Pregaine® which complements our Regaine® products by cleaning your hair effectively without preventing your treatment from being absorbed.
