what shall i use on my hair to make it not so dry? my scalps fine, its just my hair.

I'd shampoo your hair less often. I'd still use the Nizoral every 3 days, but try something like this, just a sample:

Monday: Nizoral
Tuesday: non-nizoral shampoo
Weds: NO shampoo
Thursday: Nizoral
Friday: NO shampoo
Saturday: non-nizoral shampoo
Sunday: Nizoral

Giving your hair a break from shampooing a couple times of week may help your hair be less dry. The reason for this is that your hair has protective oils in it, and when you wash your hair frequently you wash some of these oils out. For some people it's too much. So give your hair a break and skip shampooing a couple nights a week.

If you aren't using a conditioner already, use one after every time you shampoo.

If these two things don't work, try putting mayonnaise in your hair. It sounds really stupid and far fetched, but it actually does work for some people. Leave it in for 20 minutes a couple of times a week and then wash it out.

What do you think?

 

[ANDREW_J_I]

Some nice suggestions there JayMan. Cheers. I do feel alot cleaner and that my scalp is healthier washing every day tho. I may just start using a conditioner. What is That Emu Oil about thought? do u know?

 

[templemonk]

you situation seems pretty good i think you can recover alot from the treatment that's just from looking at success stories and their hair looks alot like yours
good luck

 

[ANDREW_J_I]

did u look at the update pis? i may put my next all the first page so people dnt miss them. iv got them scattered throughout different pages, thas the thing.

 

[templemonk]

are you talking about your 2months update? yeah i saw, but i couldn't really tell much since in before pic, you almost shaved your head and after pic, you had some hair grown out.. but overall, it looks like you AT LEAST maintained what you had. Q.anysides yet? please in detail..

 

[Guest]

yes i agree. it is hard to tell andrew, because your hair is quite a bit longer in the 2 month pics compared to baseline. maybe you could comb it back and show us the hairline?

 

[ANDREW_J_I]

i have runny semen as a side effect. pisses me off abit. had it for awhile now.

yeh it is hard as i have grown my hair since day one. it def looks better longer i think. too early to see if treatments are taking affect i think.

 

[Ray777]

Andrew it looks like you've grown out more hair already in the 2 month update, looking good man. Look on the bright side, you already seem to have a good amount of hair on your head and most likely you will improve. I hope the same for me, only 17 .

Andrew, I am in much the same boat as you. I am a diffused thinner and have had some thinning (probably about as much as you) on the top and some slight recession of the temples (about 1 inch). I am also on finasteride + nizoral for a little longer than you (a little over 3 months). I haven't added minoxidil yet because i don't want the hastle. I also have my hair a bit longer than yours and it isn't noticeable yet to anyone but me, no one has ever made a comment to me about it and my girlfriend says that my hair looks the same as the day i met her (about 1 year ago). Anyway, I just though that i would let you know and perhaps we could keep each other posted on our progress. you can look for my story (leons story) if you want a little more info, or i can answer any questions you may have. So far I haven't noticed any significant loss or improvement, i continue to shed slightly, about 5-10 hairs in the shower and about 15-30 on the pillow when i wake up. When i brush my hair i always get a few coming out and if i do the hair pull test i will usually get between 1-3 hairs. I don't know if this is a normal amount to shed or not, but my hair doesn't seem much worse.

 

[ANDREW_J_I]

^yeh man, definately keep eachother posted. im losing hairs now, i cudnt find a single one when washing my hair for the first 7 weeks, then i started losing some.

 

[ANDREW_J_I]
