I think i'll try mixing some emu oil at a 1:1 ratio when i use nizoral...

The only thing im worried about is that the emu oil will hinder the performance of nizoral in some way so that you don't get the max benefits of keto...i dunno...

emu oil might coat the scalp so less nizoral is absorbed?

Emu oil is actually penetrates the skin pretty well. I wouldn't be too worried about any interactions considering Revita uses emu oil as well. My concerns about revita are all the other countless ingredients used together.

If your really worried then just seriously moisturize your scalp at night with emu, jojoba, olive oil, or whatever to counteract the overdrying effect of your morning shampoo routine.

the thing with that is if you leave emu oil in your hair, your pillow gets all oily and gross

is emu oil any good?

So for what i readed.

Nizoral is number 1 option if you wash 3 times a week (it's the indicated?). but if you wash more you can always alternate with revita.

What do you mean by

Aren't they all proven ingredients?

by tricomin i meant tricomin follicle spray to apply after washing, it has copper peptides, looks a good choice.

I said I was just worried that all the ingredients Revita throws in there might react with each other - they use so many damn active ingredients -, but I HAVE NO IDEA. I use Revita and like it, but I'll probably be dropping it due to the cost.

Revita is primarily Caffeine and Ketoconazole, I believe.

I can handle Nizoral 2% every other day. For the other days, I began using a piroctone olamine shampoo mixed with Giovanni Triple Treat Shampoo with tea tree oil. This further helps with any antibacterial/inflammation issues.

Every day I prewash with Neutrogena T-sal.

This is the best my scalp has ever felt. Hands down.

So when you are saying Nizoral, is everyone refering to the 1% or 2%? If 1%, why would you not just use Revita?

I use nizoral every other day and i use Body shops Ginger antidandruff with Piroctone Olamine in when im not useing nizoral. I wash my hair every morning and evening before applying minoxidil. So basicaly i use 2 P/O wases to every 1 nizoral wash. and my scalp feels great all itching and inflamation has gone and my hairs as strong as its ever been seriously i cant barley ever find hairs in the bath sink or pillow. I do use emu oil and essenital oils to counter act the drying its a great routine and my hairs getting better everyday.
I find by washing before minoxidil and towel drying so my head still hydrated the minoxidil absobes so much quicker. also i add 2-3 drops of emu oil to one 60 ml nottle of minoxidil and again i can beleive how well it absords it actualy makes the minoxidil less greasy because it gose staright in the skin. I beleive that emu oil is one od the best things to penatrat the skin and im seeing more growth in the last 5 weeks using it that the 4 mounths prior since i started my routien.

Dr. Proctor,
Since both Tricomin and NANO are SOD'es, and NANO is presumably a more stronger SOD, would hairs that were grown due to Tricomin be maintained with NANO?

NANO is a pyridine-N-Oxide hair growth stimulator. We don't know exactly how it works, but it is not an SOD that we know of, though it is possible that it gets converted metabolically to one..

Presumably you are refering our other SOD's. Some of these are blue copper peptides. These are analogous to the one in Trichomin.

Other important SODs in our formulations are the nitroxide spin labels TEMPO and TEMPOL. I prefer these spin labels as SOD hair-growth-stimulators, but leave in copper peptides, just in case. Every bit helps. In fact, TEMPOL is currently in clinical trials for radiation-induced hair loss.

BTW, I hold the primary patent on both the copper-peptide SOD's and the spin labels as hair growth stimulators.

For hair loss? I can't decide between NANO and Nizoral. Screw Tricomin. In the shampoo world, I think alternating between NANO, Nizoral, and a third cheap, non-medicated shampoo would probably be the way to go.

Why screw Tricomen?

I seriously doubt that Tricomin shampoo has more than just a token quantity (if even that much) of the active ingredient that's in Tricomin solution. BTW, I feel the same way about Revivogen shampoo.

I thought so. How about Tricomen solution? What can I expect? Would I be better off with Folligen spray?

Tricomin solution should be useful to help fight balding, as should Folligen. But which one of those two products is really more effective than the other is anybody's guess. That issue's been hotly discussed and argued over for years! :)
