Thinning Hair problem

[sing_gunner]

would u guys recommend nizoral 2%, as compared to 1%?
say the scalp has no prob wif 2% at all.
is 2% much better then?

y dun u try using 1% nizoral 1st? i tot buying 2% needs doc's prescription while 1% is freely available on the shelf??

 

[mopiko_boy]

i think 2% can get from the counter pharmacist w/o prescription iirc.
using 1% now... so thinking of changing to 2% for the next one

wts, brand new unused box of growell

I bought one box about a year ago, but never used it cos I'm too scared to try. Any takers ?
Selling for $20, bought for $62.50 from guardian, still have the receipt. Free delivery. the expiry date is Jan 2008. sms me if interested 90229400, tks.

btw its the 5% minoxidil version. In the end I just take vitamins (with biotin) instead, my hair still seems to be there - barely...

 

[Bird_King]

for your information, minoxidil is in no way cheap in JB....

only proscar is........

any shampoo to recommend for oily scalp?

 

[Cold_Zero]

I suggest u to visit ur doc to determine what causes ur hair loss. It maybe due to stress, diet etc.
U must take action immed as u are young, u have higher chance of gaining back ur hair.
just wonder,

1) how often do u ***?
2) Do u exercise?
3) What's ur diet like?

so now what? sex and exercise will affect hairloss? i though it's only a myth that sex will cause hairloss? I know exercise will rise your dht level (especially bodybuilder who has a family history of hair loss) and thus cause hairloss but sex too?

 

[ultimatesg]

exercise can help in hair loss or cause even worser hair loss? it is supposed to help i tot as it improve circulation? or is it not?

Those that help in circulation yes, those that increase testosterone ones may be detrimental to various extent. Try doing invertion with your head lower than body if you do not have high blood pressure. It helps in my experience. Why? I do not know the mechanism exactly.

Tried kerastase or phyto?

Has anyone tried products from phyto or kerastase, are they as good as mentioned in their ads?

FIrstly in order to have healthy hair, you need to have a healthy scalp. Get a clariying shampoo and use it once a week. It is not any other ordinary shampoo as a clariying shampoo will remove residue, oil build up and other impurities for a clean scalp. Personally i'm using Giovanni Tea Tree triple treatment and while using it, it leaves my scalp a tingling sensation. No joke.

I also use Kaminamonto hair tonic. My gf uses it for close to a year and her mum told her that there are improvements. So i'm using it for about 2 months and hair fall is not so tremendous.

I've tried Kerastase products before and they are quite good. Cos my hair is fine, so I use Bain De Force to strengthen my hair. It looks coarser.

Saw this shampoo called Wella System Professional 1.5 Energy Shampoo. It is said to have stuff which can stimulate your scalp as well. Can buy it either at Kimage or those cheap shampoo stores.

Seems like many people hab thinning hair problem. Hab gained much valuable information from this post so I would like to contribute. I noticed some r in NS. Last time i used to see polyclinic n seek treatment for MPB. I am able to acess to free REGAINE 5% during my NS-Hope this is useful to some
Another think to add is that I hab undergo hair transplantation. I grafted 1500 strands of hair into my bald patches n I would like to say that the difference is quite significant (although still hab bald patches).

Sorri, did nt notice the Pm. Ok, i did it 2 yrs ago at the cost of $7K. I did it locally, check out the webbie at www.plasticsurgeon.com.sg. Bascially, the hair to b implanted is being extracted from the back of ur head (a strip of hair with roots intact). So after the operation, u will hab a scar runnin from one end of the head to another. (ear to ear). Locally done, it is a 1 day op. 1500 strands will cover a particular "troubled" area. If u interested in the b4 n after pic, feel free to PM mi ur email, i will sent u b4n after pic.
