Evaluation of Cysteic Acid in Bleached Hair Using Infrared Spectroscopy

The conversation discusses the lack of clinical studies on cysteine alone for hair loss, with the original poster already using medications like Minoxidil and finasteride. Suggestions include trying 2ddr as a growth stimulant, though concerns about side effects like gas are mentioned.

The conversation discusses the lack of public information on the chemical structure of PP405, a hair loss treatment, and the challenges of synthesizing it without a patent. It also explores a patent related to hydrogen-based topical formulations for reducing oxidative stress and inflammation.

The Derma Harmony Sulfur/Salicylic acid soap bar shampoo caused significant hair shedding, oily scalp, and cystic acne. The user experienced better results with rosemary shampoo.

Amino acids, particularly Cysteine, are important for hair growth and may be lacking in a normal diet. Using a protein powder that includes these amino acids can help improve hair growth and strength.

Selenium sulfide shampoo helped with a sore scalp but may cause hair root damage. Users experienced hair loss with selenium sulfide and ketoconazole, suggesting reducing use if hair loss occurs.

CHK-Cu (copper peptide) and C-60 (branched carbon chain) are discussed as potentially more effective than minoxidil for hair regrowth. Some users are skeptical about the claim that DHT isn't the root cause of hair loss, and others are trying these products to see if they work.
