I used baking soda on my hair and scalp for 20-30 minutes and since then have experienced diffuse hair loss and miniaturization. I keep getting a diagnosis of AGA although 3 years of minoxidil and finasteride have not helped and hair gets worse each month. All labs are normal and scalp appears normal. Can this hair loss be stopped?

Hi there,Generally it is recommended to not wash your hair at least 4 hours after application and I recommend using it at night. If you apply it twice a day then can leave on during the day and after shower apply pm dose. I do not recommend never washing your hair again after applying minoxidil.
