Hi I was inspired to give Zix another go after reading Worms megathread- I used to use it years ago and not sure it did much (possibly slowed hairloss down) but it does seem to cut down on scalp inflamation and itch if nothing else.
I initially just made a a batch with 200mg zinc sulphate (crushed healthaid brand) and 150mg P5p (pure encapsulations brand) and 60ml of distilled water- this is Joes (zix creator) original receipe.
Every time I use it I seem to get this dull headache after about 20mins which lasts for a couple of hours- do many other folks experience this? I guess the solution is to stop using it but was anyone who experienced this managed to tweek the formula in any way to mitigate headaches?

I have also experimented with LLLT and microneedling- so my guess is that my scalp is much more porous now and the tiny bit of zix im applying (1-2ml) is possibly absorbing too much?

I found it strange as this is always touted as the side effect free hairloss treatment.

cheers

Zix doesn't work so I recommend that you stop taking it in order to avoid headaches. Try polysorbate 80, strong dandruff shampoo or Keto to minimize inflammation while dissolving rancid, infected sebum from scalp and face.
