I hate washing my hair every day but I can't simply stretch washes as I exercise daily at night. So whenever I exercise, I take a shower after and wash my hair, for it seems to diminish the inflammation on my scalp. However, I decided to give ketoconazole another chance and started using a few weeks ago. I started using once a week but now I want to use it twice. That is, if I use today, I will wash tomorrow with a neutral shampoo and the following day with keto again, using it only the next week. I wonder if it would be drying enough? I want to kill this fungus or yeast at all costs, or at least put it to sleep for a while. My head has been itching (before I took initiative it was burning) since december last year. I lost hair all over the scalp, and only now I'm noticing a bit of regrowth.

I appreciate all your answers

Yes Keto 2% is meant to be used 2-3 times a week for dandruff. Try conditioning your hair after washing maybe 2/3 a week if it's dry; try caffeine shampoo or shampoo such that have ingredients like saw Palmetto to make it thicker/prevent hair loss.

I use Regenepure DR daily have done for years, contains 1% Ketaconazole as nizoral is way too harsh for daily use.

Try

Regenepure DR + NT daily.

Nizoral twice per week.

Washing your hair everyday will strip it of its natural oils, I have destroyed my hair before from washing it too much, it dries it out and causes split ends.
