I have been using both the DS Labs Shampoo and Conditioner
for more than a month, does not seem to affect my libido,
nor hair growth. Maybe still too early for both =:p
They seems to be helping my falling hair, dandruff, and itchy scalp reduction, but not sure for how long.

Thanks for sharing. I still can't seem to find any reliable articles that have conclusive evidence on whether or not it will affect. So far not so willing to try yet.

None of these herbal treatments, laser & alternative treatment have any substantial scientific evidences of their efficacy. The only 3 thing which have been medically proven to work (to varying degree) are:
1) Propecia
2) Minoxidil
3) Surgery - Hair transplant

I have tried propecia for the first time around 5 years, but it gave some sides. I stopped and the sides went away. After 3 years plus, i decided to give it another shot, but within weeks i experienced the same sides. I stopped taking, and i was back to normal within days. Concluded that i am one of those unlucky minority which does not tolerate propecia well.

Bought a few cans of Rogaine foam (minoxidil), but never had the discipline to use it twice a day for a prolonged period. Did not experience any major sides, nor see any substantial growth.

Last year, i buckled down & decided to go for a hair transplant. It was not an easy decision though. I did my own research, consulted a few specialists here and read through other hair loss forums. In the end, i decided to have my first HT surgery done in BBK by Dr. Pathomvanich (in short. Dr.Path).

Had to say that i have absolutely no regrets! It was not easy deciding to have a HT surgery, and flying abroad instead of doing it here made it even more difficult. But i certainly have no regrets today. Dr.Path is a very experienced & renowned surgery in this field, u can simply do a google search, and the team of nurses at his clinic provided really quality care throughout my surgery. In fact, the level of service i experienced at his clinic in BBK beats many of those specialists which i consulted here.

Hi bro. I've stopped taking fincar for a long time already. Been trying to exercise and eat well. Below is my latest pic taken a few minutes before this post. So far I think I've maintained it well.

Anyway I haven't checked this thread in a long time, just decided to drop in and saw your post.

Oriental hair solutions $428 for hair growth treatment 10 sessions - is it worth?

no, dont waste $. All these, it wont work... and it is expensive..

basically needs to deal with the lifestyle first. Sleep early, drink enough water, less stress.

I too am looking for a daily shampoo for oily hair. Happy to hear recommendations.

I'm about to try Nizoral for use every other day, but this is specifically to deal with the hair loss problem by getting rid of DHT which apparently causes hair to drop.

For daily use, Pura d'or Premium Organic Argan Oil Anti-Hair Loss Shampoo has been recommended online. It's not cheap, but the Amazon ratings are high:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...rue&ref_=ox_sc_sfl_title_2&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

It's free shipping if you buy 4 bottles (or any other qualifying products that add up to >US$125)

QOO10 sells it for S$70+. If you buy a single bottle from Amazon it's about S$68 with shipping.

But to deal with oily hair specifically, the quick fix is dry shampoo. It's essentially spray on powder that absorbs the oil. Think of it like a blotter for hair.

It works quite well. Might suit your purposes. Watsons sells it for about $12 a can. Brand's Bastiste and it comes in many scents. Q0010 has it slight cheaper.

Just to check is Nizoral working well, does it really get rid of the oily condition by removing DHT?

When they scan my scalp, it has lots of oily scaps surrounding my hair folicles.

What's the best solution for this?

I'm afraid I haven't started yet so I don't know how effective it is.

I'm unsure how to reduce sebum (oil) production on my scalp. To be honest I don't know who to listen to. Seems like every hair stylist is pushing some product or treatment to reduce oil but I'm unsure if there's any proof behind their claims.

I think oil production is genetic. Can't be changed. Only solution maybe is to wash more? But I think that may also cause the body to produce even more oil!

Sorry, new to this journey too! Last time never really pay attention now older starting to see the effects haha.
