I'm wondering if anyone has tried I-Soft shampoo for hair loss? It has both ammonium lactate and salicylic acid. I'm curious about the effect of the lactate in particular due to recent threads regarding its involvement in hair loss.

I've used 12% ammonium lactate lotion for years to great effect to treat my keratosis pilaris, which affects my shoulders/back/chest. This condition causes your body produces excess keratin, blocking follicles and causing reddish dots all over as hairs are unable to push through the follicle to the surface due to the waxy layer. When I use the lotion, my skin clears within a few days. I've long wondered if this condition is also responsible for my scalp hair loss, since they began at the same time (age 15-16) and my pattern of loss is very unusual (recession in normal male pattern baldness fashion, but diffuse thinning all over, huge vertex thinning, and retrograde alopecia on the sides and nape of the neck).

So has anyone tried this shampoo for hair loss, and if so what were the results? Also, any ideas on how to purchase it (or any sort of ammonium lactate based shampoo) in the US? Seems to only be available in the UK. Thanks for any feedback. :)

Where do you get it?

I don't get it (rather, I apparently can't get it, as it's only sold in the UK - there's an online pharmacy that comes up when you search for I-soft ammonium lactate shampoo). That's why I was asking if anyone had used it, and what their experience was. Also, if they knew how to purchase it in the US or knew of a different ammonium lactate shampoo sold here.

There are other ammonium lactate products

Such as? When I google "ammonium lactate shampoo" I get zero hits for any American product or product sold in the US. I know there is ammonium lactate lotion available here, since I use it. But I haven't seen a shampoo.

Given that no one has responded (shame on you all! :p ) and that I cannot find an ammonium lactate shampoo for sale in the US, I decided to try out using my 12% ammonium lactate lotion on a test area at my side front hairline (Perrigo brand, as I've found that this absorbs and works far better for me than 12% lotions made by other manufacturers - I imagine their delivery vehicle and other chemical components must be different in some way aside from the 12% AL active ingredient to account for this).

I've been using it 2x/day for about a week. I'll report back with any results I see. Even if I personally see any results from this, however, it may only be beneficial for those with the same hair loss etiology. Or, it could be more broad in application and be due to something related to the recently discussed "lactate protocol" in general. We'll see.
