Is it okay to apply Minoxidil 5% once a day and slightly more than 1mL? I’ve been using 2x/day so far. Not reaching scalp well.

I’ve only been using liquid Rogaine for 2 weeks and have noticed that it’s hard to apply it on all the parts of my scalp that I’d like. My hair is about two inches but very curly and makes it hard to apply directly to all the parts on my scalp. I’ve seen a post from someone with a similar problem who stated that they use minoxidil 5% 1x/day, approximately 20 hours apart, but apply more than the 1mL(but less than 2mL) in order to ensure the medicine is applied to all desired parts. Can this work?
