As of writing, 2,305 Amazon shoppers have left the Minimalist Hair Growth Actives Serum a glowing five-star review, as they say it "works like charm" and that they have noticed a "reduction" in hair loss within a few weeks. One positive review read: " Effective product , really works well. I have noticed reduction in my hair loss.... And strength of hair increased." A second impressed shopper said: "100 per cent recommended. I have completed three bottles. OMG! This serum is excellent. Please try it out. It's slightly oily. "For dry scalp, it would take 2 times application to make scalp slightly oily but for oily scalp, you might feel slightly oily from first use. But it works like magic. I can see baby hair. Value for the money. Totally recommended." Someone else added: "Lightweight, saw growth within 4 weeks. Absolutely amazing, especially for that price." A repeat purchaser said: "One of my fave products to go back to every time! I don't know how many times I have re-purchased it. This is simply one of the best products for hair care targeting hair fall and hair growth. I started seeing the result within 2-3 weeks of using it. It is one of the staple products of my haircare range." And another wrote: "Works like a charm. Tried many products, but none worked, finally found something which actually was up to the mark. "As promised, the hair fall reduced greatly within two weeks, I can feel the shine and thickness in my hair already within 4 weeks. Just apply in the night in scalp and wash it off in the morning, the only condition is scalp must be clean before applying. Go for it." It didn't seem to work for everyone, as one shopper who branded it as "average" wrote: "For me personally, this one didn't do any good neither did it do any harm, my hair fall did not reduce nor did I grow new hair strands."
