The opinions and information on these boards over Nizoral(keto shampoo) seem to vary greatly, as far as what it actually does for hairloss, how effective it is, and the appropriate amount to use it.
We have the studies(of which some are skeptical), showing both 1% and 2% to give some maintenance/thickening when used about 2-4 times a week. There is also the study showing 2% nizoral to be more effective than 2% Minoxidil for growth.
There seems to be dispute as to what nizoral’s intended role is in the hairloss battle. Is it just for inflammation? Or does it directly influence the follicles somehow? nizoral is considered to be the least important piece of the big 3, with many contending that it does nothing at all. Then there was just a member on these boards claiming to have gotten regrowth from using it every day. Most seem to use it more sparingly, i.e. a few times a week. Myself, I’ve been using it about 2-3x a week for the last few months.
I would like to get to the bottom of this nizoral business, especially as using it is easy and risk free. How can we best maximize the benefits it provides? Is there an advantage to using it every day? Every other day? Or is a few times a week sufficient for its purposes?
