~ Common questions before using Regaine®

  • Hair sprays and other common hair products can be used while using Regaine®, however it should be applied to the clean, dry scalp before the other products are used.

  • Your hair can continue to be dyed or permed. However, tell your hairdresser/barber that you are using Regaine®. It may be best to stop using Regaine® for 24 hours before having your hair dyed or permed to avoid the possibility of any chemical interactions.

  • Sunscreens should be applied four hours after the application of Regaine® to ensure that the sunscreen does not interfere with the effectiveness of Regaine®. If it is not possible, the sunscreen should be applied no sooner than two hours after application. For your second daily application, the sunscreen should be shampooed off the scalp. If your scalp gets sunburnt do not apply Regaine® until the burn has healed. A hat may be worn as an alternative to using a sunscreen. Make sure you wait at least one hour after using Regaine® before wearing your hat.

  • You can use Regaine® after swimming as long as your scalp is dry.

  • Regaine® is clear and colourless, however its colour may vary and occasionally have a yellow appearance. The colour of the solution will not affect its effectiveness, nor should it cause staining of clothes or skin. The solution will have no colour when it has dried on the scalp.
