Rogaine Foam vs. Kirkland Minoxidil

I have been using Rogaine for a long time (more than 3 years), but I recently switched over to Kirkland Minoxidil. Here is my review of the two products. 

Pros

• Feels less greasy on the scalp
• Dries faster on scalp

Cons

• Expensive. Over $30 for three months supply
• Foam gets onto the hair very easily 

Pros

• Cheaper than Rogaine. $33 for six months supply from Amazon. 
• Easier to apply directly onto the scalp 

Cons

• Dries up more slowly 
• More greasy feeling on the scalps

Overall Recommendation

I would recommend Kirkland Minoxidil. The satisfaction level of the two products is pretty much the same. I don't think one product has noticeably better impact than the other. Kirkland is half the price of Rogaine, so I think Kirkland is better for long term users.
