Im going to try and make my own topical (based on zix formula) but i have no experience with this, but i really need to do something topically to my scalp.

So is the basic foundation of a topical to have ethyl alcohol and water together and then i can add zinc,b6 and whatever else i want to it?

Or will azelaic acid alone work to fight DHT topically?

Or should i just go for something else topically (not minoxidil, wish to fight the root problem here, DHT, and apply this stuff once a day or EOD, not twice daily stuff).

I red topical spironolactone didnt regrow hair but whats your thoughts?

And i also consider pumpkin seed oil and rosemary oil into these mix.

Basically what im asking:
Is it really that simple that i need water and the ethyl alcohol together then i pour whatever in it as well to make a topical?
I got no experience with chemistry...

I dont want to waste cash, time and hair on this.

Any reply is appreciated but stick to the topic.

If u check the zix thread there’s a lot of ppl who’ve been on it on 6 months and claim it doesnt work. Sorry, but minoxidil or finasteride. Maybe try brotzu if u have $ & can’t wait.

You’re using ingredients like pumpkin seed which inhibits dht like finasteride anyways, just weaker. May as well hop on finasteride.
