community Been doing daily 3% topical peppermint oil for 6+ months (never used minoxidil). Have had growth that seems as good as minoxidil. Might strenghten the idea that peppermint is a good low-cost treatment, that potentially works by another route than minoxidil.

They suggest peppermint oil as a potentially effective, low-cost alternative or addition to minoxidil, with the added benefit of a pleasant smell and ease of use.
