U can use oil for hair and not on scalp if your hair is getting dry.
If you want to apply oil on scalp apply 2 hours after application of minoxidil.
Also try the foam instead of lotion of minoxidil. It could help combat dryness and irritation on scalp.

Hello Sir,
Minioxidil is used in male pattern baldness. If you use it regularly then keep a gap of 3 to 4 hours. If you use it on alternate days, then apply the oil on those days when you are not using it.

Age? Homeopathy is highly effective in promoting hair regrowth and reducing or curing baldness in the process. People with a penchant for having thick dense hair or if they are suffering from baldness can turn to homeopathy for relief. Many medicines that are known to promote the hair growth are silicea, kali carb, lyco,nat mur, phos,kali sulp. You can consult me online for homoepathic treatment without side effects.

Hello lybrate-user! a healthy scalp is one of the factor for hair health. Dry scalp is one of the reasons for dandruff. Other reason is yeast which naturally lives in hair follicle, when it multiplies it causes desquamation resulting dandruff.
Regular washing of hair with shampoo will gradually reduce dandruff. Use anti dandruff shampoo twice a week and other days use a mild scalp cleanser. Tea tree oil contain anti fungal properties. If added to your shampoo it soothes scalp.
