Robert-I saw that you use nioxin and nizoral, alternating days of use. I am just 4 weeks post op, is this a regiment that I could use right now? saw some people scared of using nizoral so soon after a HT. any advice would be great! thanks a lot

tkerr22,

First of all, Nizoral 2% is a prescription medication so if you want that, you'll have to go to a physician. Nizoral 1% can be bought OTC, though. It can also be effetive in promoting scalp health, if you didn't want to go through the hassle of getting a script.

If you have concerns, shoot your physician an email about the Nizoral. If I remember correctly, I began using it around 2 weeks post-op with no real problem. I use it 3 times a week and always use the Nioxin "Scalp Therapy" conditioner after the Nizoral. I find it helps to combat the dryness that Nizoral can bring on.

Anyone try Nexus shampoo? Costco stopped carrying Nioxin (they used to sell it real cheap) and replaced it with Nexus.

Sorry, no. If you do try it, I would appreciate it if you shared your experience with it.

I found Nioxin to be a really good conditioner to be honest with you.

I have been using Nioxin for about a year. I love it. I started using Nioxin because my hair has always been thin and never has gone very long. Well, now my hair thick, healhy,longer then its ever been-without a weave, and beautiful. I used the scalp therpy and cleanser #8.

I used Nioxin for several months prior to looking into my first HT procedure (June 2006). Given that I was almost counting each and every hair at that time, I cannot say that I saw any visible difference in the thickness or quality of my hair while I was using it, so, given its cost, I stopped. The mint smell was refreshing, but that's about it.

My favorite shampoo is Infusium; my hair generally feels softer and fuller when I use it. It's a little more expensive than, say, Fructis or Herbal Essence or one of those brands, but seems worth it.

Try Revita ..

I have tried many of the other but no doubt this one is the best . It also has Ketoconazole
which is one of the few active ingredients which have some science behind it ..

I love Nioxin. I have been using it since 1998. It is a great shampoo and maybe the scalp therapy as well. But the rest of it has never worked for me. I say to just stick to the shampoo and use minoxidil and propecia
