How bad is Nizoral for your hair?

[danmrtini]

Heard that it can thin your scalp or something? Started using it and like the way it makes hair feel afterwards but....

where the hell did you hear that?

[danmrtini]

Either here or on hairloss help. Just wanting to use something to unclog the pores. A little nervous about putting Lithium in hair.

well, this is the first time i've heard that nizoral can thin your scalp. Steroidal creams, however, will thin your scalp. But, there are no steroids in nizoral.

nizoral is a mild anti androgen AND stimulant. to save the hassle from getting a prescription, hit up amazon and look for the 2% if you're interested

my hair feels great after using niz in the shower. However i'm not sure if my hair is getting thicker or looking thicker due to the drying affect/ effect (I forgot which is the noun). if you do decide to use it, get a good conditioner
