In the most recent post, I was telling you readers that I would be be buying the Nizoral shampoo to cure my oily scalp but I just stopped short of buying it as the pharmacist introduced me another shampoo called Stieprox shampoo which he said could be used to treat a larger number of conditons such as oily scalp.
Nizoral and Stieprox were shampoos I used in Aug 2006, prescribed to me by a well-known hair loss expert in Singapore upon the onset of my hairloss. Please read my earliest posts on my experiences. She said it was not hair loss, but I think she should have retracted her judgement if she is to study my scalp now!
When I used these 2 shampoos 3 years back, my hair loss persisted but I thought it might be still due to the effect of laser. But now as my hair gradually thinned, I realised my hair loss was not a temporary effect of laser or medicine, it is a protracted and worst, a sign that will not fade away until my head goes BALD!
Well among the two when I used in 20o6, Stieprox delivered a cleaner wash. Nizoral as one of the readers of my blog has mentioned, and in line with what the pharmacists have told me, it is used to treat scalp fungus infection. But I read in the internet that Nizoral can cure baldness too, with its effect on par with Minoxidil, surprising right?
Anyway, this is my routine to share with readers now and if you have followed closely with Singapore Hair Loss Support Group, you will now know that I am advocating the following maxim: "To cure a balding scalp is to cure an oily scalp".
Thus I practise the following regimen these days. Twice or thrice a week, I will wash my hair with Stieprox to wash off all dirt and oil. On other days, I will wash with Kanz hairloss shampoo to activate and promote hair growth. I do not now put any hair tonic on my hair now and I ensure my hair is dried up before I go to bed.
I did try scalp massage before but it does not work.
Will update you readers on my progress here.
