Hey everyone,
Been using Minoxidil 5% 2x daily since Dec 1st. Happy to say I am seeing regrowth on the crown. Also using 1.25mg/day of Finasteride.
The first downside to Minoxidil was the flaking... What got rid of the flaking was using a little mix 2-3 times a week of the clinical strength head and shoulders anti dandruff shampoo (Selenium sulfide dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis shampoo in a blue bottle) and 2% Salicylic acid.
The flaking stopped but I still itch like crazy, and my scalp never felt quite clean, despite washing it.
My barber knows about my regiment, so he washed my hair the other day with some tea tree oil mixed with some heavy conditioner. It's a natural antiseptic.
He rinsed with extremely cold water. So I've been using that once a week along with the cold rinse, and it feels fantastic.
He also suggested always rinsing your hair with extremely cold water, and said it promotes healthy hair, and good skin.
Any way, just wanted to share this info.
