Dandruff and frizzy, lifeless hair.
I have had dandruff issues and a dry scalp for a very long time, it's hereitary.Last year I went to a dermatologist and stared using practo shampoo and diprobate lotion and it completely removed dandruff.But recently, a month back, flakes started reappearing as my diprobate lotion usage became irregular.Now that I've started using it again, it's under control but I want to get rid of it completely.Also my shampoo is over so I want to buy a new shampoo.I have also gotten the lower portions of my hair colored a week back.When they used absolute repair shampoo of loreal in the parlour, my hair suddenly felt very soft and not dry at all.So I wanted to switch to absolute repair shampoo or vitamino from loreal for color retention.But I'm not sure whether it'll be fine for my dandruff problem.Also, the dermatologist told me not to use any conditioner so my hair became very dry.Loreal also has a conditioner for colored hair which I wanted to buy. I plan to continue using diprobate.

Hi ! Thanks for your query. Dandruff is a common occurence. It has a tendency to recur. You have to take continuous efforts to keep it at bay. 1. Shampoo hair as frequently as required. Keep the hair clean. 2. Avoid hair styling products till dandruff goes off. 3. Use anti dandruff shampoo which contains ketoconazole once or twice a week. 4.Oil clean washed hair. 5. Do not try to scrape or comb away the flakes. Be gentle with your hair and scalp. 6. Wash your combs and brushes regularly. Do not share them.  Following healthfeed should be helpful"Understanding Dandruff" by Dr. Jolly Shah Kapadia - https://www.practo.com/healthfeed/understanding-dandruff-8830/post
