Clifton gives an update after a year of using minoxidil
Tackling hair loss is a long-term process. You have to stick with it for a while before you see any results. We spoke to Clifton in December 2025 about the results of using 5% minoxidil. He was very pleased with it at the time. Nine months later, we wanted to know how things were going: “I’m still absolutely delighted with it!”

Tackling hair loss is a long-term process. You have to stick with it for a while before you see any results. We spoke to Clifton in December 2025 about the results of using 5% minoxidil. He was very pleased with it at the time. Nine months later, we wanted to know how things were going: “I’m still absolutely delighted with it!”
'My hairline is looking better than it did 9 months ago.'
Hair grows about one centimetre a month. If you want to stimulate hair growth, we’ve found that it takes at least three months before any real results become visible. The results achieved also vary from person to person. There are even some people for whom minoxidil does not work. This is not the case for Clifton. He is still happy with his decision to use minoxidil. “I had my doubts at first. When I used it at home in Kenya, it didn’t seem to work very well. But here in the Netherlands, I saw results quite quickly.”
Den form av Minoxidil som vi rekommenderar för de flesta män.
Koncentrationen 5% har visat sig vara mer effektiv än 2% för att stimulera hårväxt.
Minoxidil kan ge synlig hårväxt efter 4 månader med effektiv användning.

Clifton has been using minoxidil for over a year now and has also seen an improvement. “My hairline is better than it was 9 months ago.” Sticking to the routine is no problem for him. “No, it’s very easy. I spray it once a day. I think it’s important to spread it all over your hair.”
He’s also positive about how his hair differs from a year ago. “Yes, I think it’s brilliant. My hair is even fuller. I’m genuinely surprised that even my hairline has improved compared to before. I look younger too. I’m a model, after all, and this helps me with that. When I video call my family, they even notice it through the screen, and I get compliments about it.”

“What surprised me was the science behind it. That it really works. I’m even thinking about taking it to Kenya and perhaps starting a little business there! I’d love to show it to my friends who are also suffering from hair loss. The fact that my hair now looks healthy and my natural hairline has returned gives me self-confidence.”
