Topical products and hair loss

One of the best products for treating many kinds of mild to moderate hair loss is minoxidil. As part of my hair loss recommendations, I advise anyone with hair loss at the crown or diffuse hair loss to use minoxidil daily as instructed.

Topicals that may reduce hair loss

In addition to minoxidil and specialized shampoos and conditioners for hair loss, some people have found other non-prescription topical products helpful.

Argan oil

  • Argan oil comes from the fruit of argan trees, a plant native to Morocco. It can be found in some conditioners, and it is also available as a 100% pure oil.

Topicals that may increase hair loss

  • Acne medication
  • Anti-fungals
  • Antibiotics
  • Anti-clotting drugs
  • Cholesterol drugs
  • Corticosteroids
