🧴

i have basically always struggled with dandruff, and have had trouble finding a solution that worked consistently--some products seem to work for a bit, but then eventually seem ineffective. i went to a dermatologist because my dandruff was bothering me so much; he explained he was pretty sure i have seborrheic dermatitis, which can just express itself as a chronically flaky scalp. his solution for me was to cycle through three kinds of shampoo for a few weeks at a time: one prescription ketoconazole shampoo, then regular Head+Shoulders and Selsun Blue. i also get a prescription for clobetasol propionate solution in a little dropper, which i'm supposed to use for more intense outbreaks that might happen. luckily, so far, i have been fine just cycling shampoos! recommend giving this a shot :)

nizoral

struggled for years trying all the other products out there before finding this -- there are many causes and this shampoo targets ones not covered by LCD/ZPT shampoos. i use this every few days and other days low-poo/no-poo to be gentle on my scalp. hope you find something that works for you!

Nizoral as pre-shampoo

if you experience flakes and/or general scalp dryness, Nizoral is the best-kept secret. dermatologists frequently rec it both for flaky scalps and hair loss. rub it into your scalp (leave it on for a few minutes so it can do its thing) and then use your regular shampoo and conditioner after it. you’ll seriously never have flakes again, and you’ll be doing preventative care for hair thinning.

Head and shoulders anti dandruff shampoo

Sooo, I don't have acne, but I get some outbreaks often. And I've heard from multiple people (including myself) that this does work really well. I apply it while showering so I can rinse it off immediately. Though, it depends on where you live because apparently the shampoos in Europe don't work, it doesn't have the ingredient (whatever that ingredient even is).
