Just learned why it's important to put the cap on the minoxidil bottle...

As I was brushing my teeth, a black speck on the tip of my rogaine foam bottle caught my eye. It was a a dead fly, a tiny one. So I picked up the can and looked into the tube and I thought I saw more.

So I sprayed a little into the sink...like 6 to 8 dead fucking flies came out, I shit you not. I don't ever see any flies in my house, I am a clean mfer. But I also, usually right after a shower, apply the foam directly from the can right into my hair. And I leave the cap off the bottle. So...I've probably been applying dead flies to my hair every day for years after showering.

Apparently they like the ethanol in the foam formulation. I've never felt so grossed out. I don't know where the fuck got in from, but...never again.

Sorry you had to read this.
