Hair Scalp

Question

Hair Scalp

Asked for Male, 28 Years

After washing my hair very well with shampoo (sometimes twice), my head gets super oily and full of dandruff within 24 hours. Its also itchy and I am losing hair. As a result I am washing my hair every second day. Currently I am using Himalaya anti dandruff shampoo. I tried other shampoo before it didn't help.

Hi You seem to be having seborrhoeic dermatitis which is a chronic recurring skin condition. You may be using too much shampoo which may make the scalp excessively dry and the scalp may compensate by secreting too much oil. Try using a mild shampoo. Also eat healthy and avoid junk food. Smoking also increases the oil secretion and hair loss. Please contact a dermatologist who can examine you and prescribe the appropriate skin care products and treatments if the above suggestions don't help
