Lot of itchiness in scalp accompanied by dandruff. Tried some dandruff specific serum and shampoos but it is better only instantly after hair wash but wears off later.
Also sometimes when I apply oil overnight my right side of the scalp aches and the pain persists even after hair wash. That side pains even while combing hair. But it's not the case with the left side.
Now I only oil for 15 mins and wash my hair once a week, and at most twice. Still the dandruff and itchiness starts occurring within a day Or two of shampooing.
