2) Revivogen Shampoo and Scalp Therapy
The Revivogen line of shampoos has been well known for two decades. The Revivogen MD Bio-Cleansing shampoo is the company’s bestselling product. It removes sebum from the scalp and contains natural DHT blocking ingredients. It is dermatologist forumulated and sulfate and paraben free. In addition to DHT-blocking ingredients, Revivogen contains botanical blends to soothe scalp irritation and itchiness. You can also purchase the Revivogen Pro BioCleansing shampoo.
3) ADENOVITAL Scalp Essence 180ml
A Japanese product. There is solid scientific evidence and backing behind Adenosine. The company (Shiseido) that makes this product is one of the world’s leading cosmetics companies and is also working on a hair loss cure. Shiseido Adenovital is a big hit in Asian markets.
4) Redensyl, Capixyl, Procapil and Baicapil based Serums
A number of new hair growth serums and topicals contain all four of: Redensyl, Capixyl, Procapil and Baicapil. Redensyl stimulates stem cells and human fibroblasts from the dermal papilla, which leads to and increase in hair growth. Capixyl is a biomimetic signal peptide complex. Procapil contains three plant-derived ingredients that reduce hair loss. Baicapil contains a combination of three botanical ingredients.
Ever since this excellent product was first made available in the much easier to apply foam version, I have always maintained an ample supply. Rogaine’s key ingredient Minoxidil is FDA approved to treat hair loss. Besides helping my hair, this foam product also acts as a weak gel. Make sure to read my post “How does Minoxidil work to treat hair loss?”
6) Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo
This is my favorite shampoo to tackle dry and itchy scalp problems. I have written an entire post on Nizoral shampoo, summarizing scientific evidence behind this product. However, do not overdo it. I try to use this product twice a week at most. Make sure to keep it in your hair for at least several minutes before rinsing it off. This product contains 1% Ketoconazole.
