I bought nizoral cream 2% the other day.

I usually have about 25 hair sheds a day.

I rubbed again tonight/saturday, and this is the 2nd time, almost 40 hairs fell while i was rubbing it in.
is that normal? has anybody experienced that.

I didnt have necessarily a visible shed with niz cream but after 2 mos i had noticeable thinning in those areas

scared the crap out of me i never had that before
stopped it after 2 mos

it grew back much thicker later
than it was before i started the niz cream

still i dont like sheds, that unnerved me

so u wouldn’t say that it stopped ur shedding?

Stopped my shedding? i did not have any shedding to stop before the niz

i did not notice shedding with the niz, just thinning and then i stopped it and it grew back way thicker

just unnerved me the thinning, maybe though it is part of the healing process, shocking the weak hairs out then they regrow stronger

According to Department of Dermatology, Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan, another option is actually a dandruff shampoo called Nizoral.

Its very harsh and can alter the immune response in the wrong way - suppressing it too much locally :frowning:

So its safer to use a safer alternative Piroctone olamine :slight_smile:

So wait, just to clarify… the cream makes you shed initially and but ultimately the hair grows back thicker?

I dont know if I would call it shed
the cream initially made me thin considerably in the top front later it grew back much thicker yes

niz shampoo is much too harsh
it contains HCL hydrochloric acid

gets rid of dandruff but so would a blowtorch

I tried the shampoo many years ago.
and my god, i would come out of the shower with a tomato scalp, very harsh.

thanks for recommending the cream Hangin, its good
