I share some photos of my mum's recovery from alopecia, along with detailing the products that we used.
"Fungal infection cream" - Miconazole Nitrate: average price £2.75 for 30g | Cons: Difficult to apply on thicker hair, can give headaches. Effectiveness: We didn't find this effective, no growth noticed
Mega-Tek: average price £20 for 473ml | Cons: Expensive to use as a conditioner, difficult to apply only to scalp if you have thick hair, increased hair shedding Effectiveness: mildly effective, some growth noticed
Sulphur Oil Mix - 250ml of carrier oil (we used castor oil) with 1/2 table spoon of sublimed sulphur: average price of sulphur powder £2.50 for 100g | Cons: very smelly, some scalp irritation Pros: Easy to apply with applicator bottle Effectiveness: moderate, definite growth noticed
Jamaican Black Castor Oil: average price 236ml for £13.99 | Cons: a bit expensive Pros: ease of application Effectiveness: very effective, stubborn patches also showing growth
