flaking with Xandrox

[20something]

Any tips on how to avoid the flaking after applying Xandrox to your hair? I usually apply, let sit for 15 minutes and then style my hair in the morning. But it leaves some white flakes that are visible on my frontal hairline. Not exactly practical to wait 4 hours to wash before leaving the house.

Mine would dry the first couple weeks and be flaky but it was not noticeable. I cut the dosage half a millileter and it fixed my problem.

Yeah that is happening to me to. I thought I had developed dandruff but that is highly unlikely because of the Nizoral.

I have minor flaking too, my guess is its the azelaic acid in the xandrox.

I did not get that with Retin A?

No, Dr Lee's regular formula also causes white flakes. it's emberassing, i try to wipe the hair and not touch the scalp to get it off an hour or two after i apply it.

It's definitely not dandruff because it's only visible on my hairline where I apply the Xandrox. It also makes me itch a little too but I'm willing to put up with that as long as people don't see anything. I've been on for 3 weeks. Is this something that might normalize or is it a permanent side affect?

I might cut down to .5 - .75mL and see what happens.

Umm.... hate to say it but the flaking is 99% most likely your skin, aka dandruff.

Remidies: nizoral, TGEL, TSAL, and I can't say it enough

Okay, well I currently use Nizoral (2%) and I might add TGEL to that. If it's not better in a couple weeks then I'll look to add Folligen.

Do you recommend the spray, lotion or cream?
