When you use minoxidil 5% liquid you get a lot of residue and oily hair...so I need to wash it everyday to get it clean.How often do you guys wash your hair if youre using minoxidil?

My dermatologist told me that HS is pure sh*t in terms of antidandruff shampoos,I used to use it myself for a while, it dried my hair and scalp completely,I used it 3 times a week average.
I stopped using nizoral as it is too rough on seborrheic dermatitis fighting and dries scalp too much too. I have a tad bit of seborrheic derm. and some cronic little dandruff flakes presence on top of my scalp.I use now KPL, I think it is much better than nizoral,it also has ketoconazole,I buy it at pharmacy.

It didnt for me, everything works different for everyone, but you have only been using them for nearly more than two months,at that point,I thought everything was just great, my hair wasnt so oily and then it went really dry.
I respect your choice, each of chooses their own products.

The older version of head and shoulders classic clean worked much better for me than the newer version that has been out for about 2 years now. They both are 1% Zinc I believe but the older version definitely would dig deeper to clean the scalp. The older version had these little blue particles in it, the new version is pretty much white. Now the new version just kind of takes care of surface dandruff, thats it. I'm so disapointed that they changed it.
