FOLIGAIN® 2% Trioxidil® — hair loss shampoo for men, 236 ml

Hair loss shampoo for men: care starts in the shower

When your hair looks thinner, choosing a shampoo takes on a new meaning. You're looking for a product that's clean, feels good, and has a place in your overall routine.

FOLIGAIN® 2% Trioxidil® for Men combines a cleansing formula with cosmetic care for thinning hair types. It cleanses the scalp and prepares your daily routine: wash, condition according to your hair's needs, and apply a topical product.

Hair loss and baldness: what role does shampoo play?

When choosing hair loss and balding products, start with a clear goal for each step. FOLIGAIN® 2% Trioxidil® is a rinse-off cosmetic treatment for the scalp and for thicker-looking hair. For visible thinning, it can be part of a structured routine tailored to the cause of your hair loss. If you suspect balding, discuss the appropriate approach with a dermatologist.

Three reasons to include it in your routine

Cleaning. Removing buildup and dirt is the primary job of shampoo. Start with a clean scalp before moving on to the next step.

A denser look. The formula is designed for men who notice a loss of visible thickness and want fuller-looking hair.

Orderly care. Instead of choosing products without a clear sequence, define the role of each: shampoo cleanses, conditioner conditions, and serum is applied separately according to its directions.

What does 2% Trioxidil® mean?

Trioxidil® is a proprietary FOLIGAIN® cosmetic complex. The 2% mentioned refers to the complex as a mixture, not to each individual ingredient. The shampoo is a rinse-off product; the 10% serum has a different role and a different method of application.

Choosing between them doesn't come down to the higher number on the package. It's more useful to consider what steps you want to include and which ones you can follow consistently.

The composition up close

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 and Red Clover Extract are a peptide and plant component in caring for the type of thinning hair.

Hydrolyzed wheat and soy proteins, biotin and amino acid components complement the multi-component formula.

Jojoba esters, glycerin, urea and allantoin are present in the composition along with plant extracts of chamomile, lemon balm, horsetail and tea.

Salicylic acid is listed as a keratolytic ingredient according to the manufacturer. The product also contains fragrance ingredients — check the label if you have any known sensitivities.

What does the series' research show?

The manufacturer published a 120-day study from 2019 conducted by Princeton Consumer Research Corp with 60 adults — 30 men and 30 women. A combination of shampoo, conditioner, and Trioxidil® topical formula was tested.

Cosmetic parameters including volume, visible density, shine, softness, scalp condition, and breakage were assessed using expert assessment, controlled combing, and participant self-assessment.

This is data for a combined routine. It does not determine the result of using the shampoo alone. Individual results will vary.

Track your own care with realistic criteria: how it feels after washing, how easy it is to style, and how your hair looks. Photos taken in the same light are more useful for comparison than casual glances in the mirror.

Method of use

1. Wet your hair and scalp.
2. Apply the shampoo and massage gently. 1–2 minutes.
3. According to the manufacturer's instructions, let it stand for a while. 3–4 minutes.
4. Rinse thoroughly.
5. The manufacturer recommends use 3–5 times a week, followed by FOLIGAIN® Triple Action Conditioner.

Follow the instructions on the packaging of the purchased product. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

How to combine it with the 10% Trioxidil® serum?

Wash and rinse well. Follow the serum's instructions for scalp preparation and application. Schedule both steps so you have time to do them at your leisure.

If you are using minoxidil, follow the instructions for washing it. Do not mix the products in the bottle or in your palm.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it contain minoxidil?

This is the 2% Trioxidil® version. It is different from the FOLIGAIN shampoo with a combination of Minoxidil and Trioxidil.

Can it replace the serum?

The two products serve different functions. The shampoo is a rinse-out product, while the serum is a separate topical step.

Is it faster than minoxidil?

There is no confirmed comparative test that establishes such superiority of this shampoo. Trioxidil® is a cosmetic complex.

When should I expect a change?

There is no universal deadline. The combined system testing lasts four months, but does not provide a guaranteed deadline for the specific user.

What should I do if I have sudden or patchy hair loss?

See a dermatologist to determine the cause and appropriate care.
