Hey all, I've noticed that whenever I use Nizoral shampoo I shed significantly more for weeks, like 3x the amount of hair in the shower. I rarely use Nizoral (maybe once every 2 or 3 months) and without fail my hair begins a heavy shedding for weeks after use. Has anyone else experienced this?

I quit using keto shampoos because it fries my hair. Dry and brittle. The one from minoxidill express was alot better on my hair than nizoral. It has gentle ingredients and didnt dry out my hair as much. If nizoral causes shedding and you use it rarely then why keep using it?

Why do I keep using it? Great question. I sometimes headcase about scalp inflammation and itching so thats why. Ive never really had any scalp issues before so I dont think I will use it again going forward unless I really have to.

Gotta kill those mites on your scalp mate. The itching could be from them. Gotta keep the mites colony under controll. They love twinks like you too much.

You can use a conditioner after shampooing, being careful to prevent it from contact with the scalp. I use Nioxin 2 conditioner for progressed hair loss.

Just swedish beer its pretty strong 10.2% sitting on a bench in the sunset now im gonna crack open my beer. I need to go to court next friday as a witness and I hate it. My ex friend cut off his moms head while his wife helped him.
That's so insane every day would become drinking day for me. I hope you're holding up ok. A very similar case happened where I live. Small town, hadn't had a murder in 100 years then some dude cuts off his mothers head claiming shes a witch. He's in a secure medical facility now.

Ye im pretty anti social person to begin with and to have to talk in court around lots of people will make me very nervous and stressed. I hate talking infront of even 10 people. My heart pounds fast and hard and my voice shakes. Im gonna drink a beer before court 100% to relax my nerves..alcohol makes you more brave and less stressed and calm.
