Acnes in hair follicles of hairs and beard
Doctor your last video of hair acne helped me alot. I exactly followed and got benifitted. But now the problem is grey hair, where these pimples came and my hair shedding alot while I shampoo.
I used Nizoral for a couple months, washing every 3 days. I didn’t really notice a difference other than really dry hair 😞
Me too
Me too
Me too, totally drying
Maybe try just using it once a week?
@JenniferTrika I only use it once a week, and it still feels like straw. 😒
Thank you for helping me to pick a shampoo! You always give great information! TFS!❤️
I don’t like how she is doing this but it’s like she’s reading my mind 😅 I need this, I’m dealing with this now.
I have heard of Nettle being used for hair growth for centuries but it is never spoken about. Goes back to Greece and Rome!
You can get nettle tea at most grocery stores in Poland, we always said it’s good for hair and nails!
I started drinking stinging nettle infusions 3 years ago. I get it from iHerb. It WORKS! At length though, not follicles. But it makes your hair grow like a weed. Tastes good too. Like a caffeinated tea with no caffeine. Love it.
Klorane has nettle infused line & there are nettle teas in some stores
Please also do a vid about hair oiling for scalp and hair growth. 🙏
I’d look up her videos that focus on oils. She’s got one on best oils for hair growth and videos on individual oils like argan, jojoba, marula, coconut, etc.
Hi Dr. Dray, thanks for this video. Could you review the Dercos shampoo from Vichy? The one for hair loss. I used it when I was a teen and it seemed to magically keep my hair on my scalp. 😅. Haven’t used it in years but I just found it online and I’m about to buy it again. Hair loss has been a problem for me since I was 14 and I’m 40 now. All this time I’ve ben fighting PCOS, insulin resistance and a lot of stress.
If you mean the one with olamine piroctone, in another hair video, she mentioned in the comments, that it’s not well studied or used much in the US.
Hi Dr. Dray! Could you make a video on the topic of hair shedding and what is considered “normal”? Are there any dietary supplement that have been proven to work? Thanks 😊
Dr Dray has videos on hair supplements. Not sure what you mean by hair shedding. She does cover that in some of hair hair loss videos.
I’ve been using Alpecin shampoo since your last video when you mentioned it. I like it, but it smells like mens cologne! I use it for my first shampoo and let it sit on my scalp for 2 minutes. Then I wash with a nicer smelling shampoo. 😆Massage and 5% Minoxidil has helped me! (PS: Don’t mind my picture. I had brain surgery and the right side of my hair was shaved 😂 )
I do the same I wash w the alpecin then wash w/ rosemary shampoo after due to its smell
I actually use the Bare one from Head & Shoulders mainly because I like the smell but I only wash my hair once a week. I alternate it with Nizoral which I feel does a better job at cleaning my scalp but can be a bit drying. I have hard water where I live and I have to use a lot of leave-in conditioner/gel to keep my hair in place.
I use this same combo. I’m almost 40 and have more hair than most 20 year old men. I use a bore bristle brush to brush my oils down my hair shafts.
Alpecin shampoo is aimed at the male audience because in their clinical tests they found that men responded better to its active ingredients, while women had little or no benefits. However, I used it for a while and I did enjoy the volume it left in my hair 😀
That’s interesting. On their site it says that it is effective in women as well.
Alpecin tonic is very effective. I used for a long time and my hair loss reduced significantly. I used a mix of Alpecin tonic with 10 drops of rosemary essential oil. Just be careful if you have high blood pressure.
@@MariaDiazskn Have you been diagnosed with andeogenetic alopecia?
I feel like shampoo/conditioner for hair loss helps me during 3 weeks, then PMS hits and it’s shedding season. It’s a competition between the haircare and my hormones. Hormones are winning.
Have you tried spearmint tea? It’s not the most delicious beverage I’ve ever had, but drinking it once a day for the past 30ish days has definitely reduced my hormonal acne. It might reduce hair loss too
Yes to Nizoral! It really does seem to allow more hair growth, and on my hair, it turns into Big hair. Haha. May or may not happen to you, but it looks fuller and has a nice sheen.
I use HIM shampoo that I get on Amazon, it’s 2 bottles and one bottle can last me for around 6 months. I also take minoxidil pills so that’s been helping me a lot :)
To my dry, kinky/coily/curly hair friends out there: before you hop in the shower on wash day, fill a small applicator bottle (I buy the two pack of 2 oz bottles from the craft section at Dollar Tree) with equal parts Nizoral and water. Gently move it around to mix. Now use this to apply the shampoo solution directly to your scalp only. Massage in, let it sit on your scalp for a few minutes while you head to your shower, rinse it out holding the ends of your hair up above your head, and follow up with whatever shampoo you want.
Excellent tip, thank you!
@@debraraby4376 You’re welcome! Happy to help. I’ve been doing it this way for 6 years now (for my seborrheic dermatitis). The direct application to my scalp has saved my strands, and diluting the shampoo has saved my wallet 😋
I have fine hair and, similar to Dr Dray, also find that Nizarol gives it some volume- I really like it
I like the Head and Shoulders. It is gentle on my scalp and hair. Reduces my scalp inflamation.
