Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
Morr ( Minoxidil 2 %) solution is a treatment for female pattern baldness. If you are having female pattern baldness, then it is appropriate. If you have dandruff it is better to avoid oil, otherwise you can oil your hair. As minoxidil solution dries up and forms like crystals on scalp washing hair daily is useful to wash the crystals off, but it is not compulsory to wash hair daily.
You may use a mild shampoo like Triclenz or volumizing shampoo like X-gain.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
