The conversation is about evaluating the ingredients in Davines VOLU shampoo for potential red flags. The user is concerned about which ingredients to avoid despite the shampoo being sulfate-free.
Dutasteride can drastically reduce sebum production, leading to dryer hair and shedding. Alternating shampoos and periodic silica supplementation can improve hair quality and thickness.
A user tried various hair growth treatments, including drinking topical minoxidil, using oral minoxidil and finasteride, and applying GHK-Cu, growth hormone peptides, and liposomal sulforaphane. They experienced thicker hair, while others discussed the risks and benefits of these methods.
Red light therapy has shown promising results in hair regrowth for the user, who avoids minoxidil and finasteride due to side effects. The user follows a healthy lifestyle with diet, exercise, and sauna use, and will continue monitoring the therapy's effectiveness.
The user experienced red pimples and a rash from using topical minoxidil, possibly due to propylene glycol. Suggestions included seeing a dermatologist, switching to foam without propylene glycol, using Nizoral, and adjusting application timing.
