I don't know whether is it the permanent solution for u or not, but i benefited a lot.\nTake turmeric powder (2/3 teaspoon) + curd (4/5 teaspoon) + juice of one lemon + some water.\nMix it & apply on ur hair. Let it for around 1 hour.\nAfter that wash ur hair but don't use any soap or sampo atleast for that day.\ncontinue this thrice/twice in a week. Definately soon u get posetive result.

Use a different shampoo.  Some shampoos can dry your head causing flakes.  You will need to try different shampoos until  you find one that doesn't do it.  I will say, however, the cheaper the shampoo (especially store bought varieties), the more likely it will be to cause dandruff.  So, if you buy your shampoo from a salon (usually more expensive), then you will be less likely to have problems.\n\nI would recommend Head and Shoulders (or other dandruff shampoos), but these dandruff shampoos never seemed to help me much and usually left my hair greasy.  \n\nAs far as the fallout, that's going to happen no matter what shampoo you use and has nothing to do with the shampoo.  If you're concerned with fallout, you might want to look at your diet to make sure you're getting enough protein.  However, you may simply have genetic pattern baldness.  And,  if that's the case, there's little you can do to stop the genetics.  Although, you might try Minoxdil (over the counter) or Propecia (prescription) to see if that can curb the fallout.

My son had this problem.  The dermatoligist told him to wash his hair with a dandruff shampoo.  Something to do with oil from his hair.  Has been several years since then, and he has no problems now.

This will stop after a few weeks,brush your hair well every day at least three to four times, to rid your scalp of loose hair.  Use a gentle shampoo. Pamper yourself, you have had a real body experience,take it easy as much as you can,it will all come right...and by the way congrats.....

Wash your hair in lukewarm (if you can stand it) or cool water, use any kind of shampoo containing aloe, and use a moisturizing conditioner.

If normal dandruff shampoos aren't doing it for you, you may have more than ordinary dandruff.\n\nTry a coal tar shampoo, available at pharmacies and most grocery stores. This will help with mild cases of "psoriasis" and "seborrhaic dermatitis".\n\nGood luck!

NO! That will dry your scalp more. You should wash your hair every other day or 2x's a week. Try using a dandruff shampoo like Selsun Blue or Tegrin.

try some home treatments. they are really inexpensive. first, have your hair trimmed. it is healthy to have it trimmed every four to six weeks.  then, once a week, rub some extra virgin coconut oil on your scalp and on your hair. massage for about ten minutes. then, leave it on for around 15 more minutes. wash off with your favorite shampoo and condition. do this for at least twice a week. oh, by the way, check your shampoo it may not be compatible with your hair. avoid hair colors for a while, if possible. otherwise, use really mild ones. avoid blow drying your hair too much too. blow drying dries your hair and makes it suceptible to split ends and tangles. moreover, do not brush hair when it is wet. instead, use a wide teeth comb. goodluck!

One method puts pressure on the scalp (scalp tourniquet) to block blood flow, thereby preventing the drugs from damaging the hair follicles. Another method uses ice or cooling devices (scalp hypothermia) to decrease the amount of drug taken up by the hair cells. Lastly, certain medications have been used to prevent alopecia.\nto treat an irritated and red scalp and minimize hair loss include:\n• using a mild shampoo\n• using hair brushes with soft bristles\n• avoiding the use of hair dryers, hot curlers, and curling irons\n• using the lowest setting on a hair dryer (if a dryer must be used)\n• avoiding hair dyes\n• avoiding permanent wave solutions\n• wearing sunscreen or a hat when outdoors\n• using a satin pillowcase

Try using Head & Shoulders shampoo. If that doesn't help ask you doctor for a prescription for a stronger anti-danduff shampoo.

A CURE FOR\nDANDRUFF!\n \n\nYes, I did "cure" mine and so have many others using a substance that most people have at home.\n\n\n\n \n\nWhat Is Dandruff?\nFollowing are some the definitions I have come across:\n\nDandruff is a bothersome problem sometimes thought to be associated with inefficient hair care. Nothing could be further from the truth - anyone who has dandruff knows that!\n\n\nIf you're troubled by dandruff, that snowy, dust-like stuff that falls from scalp to shoulders, you're not alone: Nearly everyone has dandruff to some degree. But care must be taken not to confuse simple dandruff with other conditions that also cause flaking of the scalp, such as seborrheic dermatitisor psoriasis.\n\nDandruff occurs when the scalp sheds dead epidermal (skin) cells in large clumps. Dandruff scales appear dry, white or grayish, appearing as small, unsightly patches, especially on top of the head.\n\nScalp cells replenish themselves in a pattern similar to that of hair, but more rapidly: The skin of the head renews itself about once a month. Dead scalp cells are constantly being pushed from the deepest layer of the epidermis to the skin's surface, where they gradually die. Usually the scalp sheds them in a nearly invisible way. But for reasons that are still unclear, cell turnover sometimes becomes unusually rapid, and dead cells are shed as the visible flakes called dandruff. Although most people assume dandruff comes from a dry scalp, the opposite is true: People with oily scalps tend to suffer most from dandruff.\n\n"This may be due to an oily scalp supporting the growth of yeast in the scalp, which is thought to be instrumental in the development of scaling and scalp irritation," says Joseph P. Bark, M.D., chairman of dermatology at St. Joseph's Hospital in Lexington, Ky. "A large preponderance of males have dandruff, which may suggest some role of androgen hormones in dandruff."\n\nBark says that dandruff has its bright side: If the scalp doesn't shed its dead skin cells, the human scalp would be tremendously thick. "But when the cell turnover goes too far and increases, then you get not only visible excess scaling, but redness and itching," he says. "Redness and itching is actually seborrheic dermatitis, and it frequently occurs around the folds of the nose and the eyebrow areas, not just the scalp."\n\nSometimes itching of the scalp is also experienced. Dandruff is a very common problem. The most common cause is probably a small skin fungus, previously known as Pityrosporum ovale, now renamed Malassezia furfur. The fungus is found naturally on the skin surface of both healthy people and those with dandruff. The fungus likes fat, and is consequently found most on skin areas with plenty of sebaceous glands: on the scalp, face and upper part of the body. When Malassezia furfur grows too rapidly, the natural renewal of cells is disturbed and dandruff appears with itching. \n\nDandruff is made up of bits of dead skin that peel away from the scalp as a result of the effects of metabolism. Normally, dandruff, in its early stages of growth, is not visible to the naked eye. It becomes visible only after enlarging into pieces of dead skin (what we normally call "dandruff") as a result of the propagation of bacteria and/or problems with seborrhoeic scalp conditions. Persons suffering from prolonged dandruff are said to have a dandruff ailment. This type of ailment, accompanied by itchiness, can lead to eczema if it worsens.\n\n \n\nSome suggested causes for dandruff:\nContrary to the old wives tales, dandruff isn't caused by too much shampooing or dry skin. It is triggered by overactive oil glands, food allergies, stress, excessive perspiration, or harsh shampoos.\n\nThere is a common misconception that dandruff is caused by scalp skin being too dry. Hence some people avoid washing their hair, believing that the drying effect of shampoo will worsen t
