Hi Guys,

I don't use Nizoral that much as after washing it my hair feels brittle and dry. Can I was with Nizoral and then do another wash straight away with a better shampoo to make my hair feel better?

What shampoo do you recommend?

Also Nizoral 1 or 2%?

There used to be a Nizoral non-medicated conditioner (discontinued).

I don’t think there should be a problem with a second wash.

lee has a less harsh 1% keto. I hope they know the keto is what is reponsible, and not the shampoo, and that the vehicle is not critical.

One thing i HATE about nizoral is if I get it in my eyes it burns burns burns. I'm going to squirt a little aloe and a little oleic acid in it.

I just started using it this week, I seem to be having no problems with it. How much do you guys use? Sparingly or lots so that there's full lather coverage? I noticed that it seem to have much lather and wondered if I'd used enough.. :roll:

If you pre-wash with a gentle shampoo you could use a very small amount of Nizoral.
I’ve been using the same bottle (4oz.) for 6 months and still have a month’s worth of shampoo.

I may try that, thanks. I've used Nizoral twice now in 5 days thinking about using it again tomorrow, if I'm having no problems with it could I use it as my only shampoo every other day? When did those of you that have had problems with it first start noticing?

I'm pretty new to all this, but i got some Tricomin, and it REALLY helped with the itching from Nizoral (I used to scratch like a monkey when I used it)and some cosmetic thickening. I'd give it a shot- sure, it's $ 48.00, but you don't need to use that much.
