Minoxidil users can safely use salicylic acid shampoo to manage scalp pimples and dandruff. Nizoral is also recommended for hair gain and treating scalp pimples.
A 24-year-old male experiencing increased hair thinning and shedding recently started using rosemary and castor oil, microneedling, and an anti-dandruffshampoo. He is considering adding Saw Palmetto and seeks recommendations for a good shampoo.
A 20-year-old male using Minoxidil and finasteride for 6 months and keto shampoo for 5 months saw initial improvement in dandruff, but the condition returned. He recently started using 3% salicylic acid shampoo and seeks advice for persistent dandruff, which is oily and localized to the left side of his scalp.
A 28-year-old experienced significant hair regrowth over four months using 1mg finasteride, 5% minoxidil, and Nizoral shampoo. The user reported no side effects except occasional dandruff and emphasized the importance of consistent application.
A 24-year-old with male pattern baldness experienced side effects from oral finasteride and switched to a topical minoxidil/finasteride combination, later incorporating daily shampooing and scalp brushing to manage hair loss and dandruff. After initial shedding, the regimen led to reduced hair loss and new hair growth, with the user now using a densita mf combination (5% minoxidil/0.1% finasteride + redensyl) nightly.
