This was so insightful. More valuable information that I have heard from anyone! Thank you Dr. Sam Ellis!

I don't suffer from it but I really like your videos Please talk about scalps and how to keep it healthy.Thanks so much!

OMG, THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! Finally a video that helps us figure out if its dandruff or dry skin! There are so many videos talking how to treat it...but not how to diagnose it in the first place. Appreciate your content so much :-)

Thank you for breaking down dandruff and what to use! Great video!

I have a sensitive itchy dermatitis scalp, folliculitis, and very coarse thick wavy salt and pepper hair. I just tried Superzero solid shampoo for flakes and itches and it made my scalp feel less itchy. It also made my hair shiny, soft, and bouncy. Love it so far!

This is a great video. Id recommended people see a dermatologist. I notice many general practitioners just assume it’s fungus and prescribe that ketonazole shampoo, I’m a home care nurse and see it all the time. When my son was younger I took him to the dermatologist and found out it his was psoriasis.

It was a medicated shampoo though that was only avail from a script. When he was a teenager he also had bad acne so the dermatologist ordered Accutane which stopped the acne and significantly improved the psoriasis to the scalp. Occasionally he gets a skin flare and for that he has triamcinolone cream that the the dermatologist prescribes. Hope this helps somewhat

The only thing I have found that worked 100% was a shaved head. I haven't tried Nizoral yet. Shaving my head doesn't suit me but no more dandruff.

My 11 year old daughter and I both started suffering itchy flaky scalps for about a year now and we've been trying to manage it incorrectly, apparently. I've seen a lot of derm videos on dandruff but Dr Ellis's video really caught my attention because I just like the way she explains things - we both started using a dandruff shampoo similar to nizoral that we like and use a few days a week and we now have flake free itch free scalps.

As a hairstylist of almost a few years, I can tell you, that you are not meant to apply strong hair shampoo on your hair. I've noticed hair lines of so many folks, and I spotted that folks who were using strong shampoos typically had poor hair line. So I suggest only to use gentle shampoo only. I myself use and advise to apply littleextrra coconioon shampoo only. Also, do hot oil massage twice a week as it enhances circulation and promotes healthy hair growth.

Ive been dealing with seb dermatitis for decades now. Took me a long time to accept that it’s a chronic issue. Regular hair washing definitely helps. Mine always starts to act up the longer I wait between washes. It can be annoying bc I’m dying my hair now to cover grays and most dandruff shampoos are pretty harsh.

Hi! Such a great video! My question is, does the T/sal tar shampoo smell bad? And/or does the smell linger? Thank you!

I've used Ketoconazole 2% for quite some time now, 8 plus years. It works well for my scalp.

Thank you very much, this was very helpful

My hair being incredibly curly, thick, and coarse is difficult to wash thoroughly, but ive learned the value of rinse and repeat. My scalp past my hairline is clean, its much much easier to get the shampoo further back around the crown. And it has ended up saving me a lot more shampoo than just meticulously sectioining and coating every square centimeter of my scalp while also doing a more thorough job at the end of the day.

After years of trying different shampoos/methods of getting rid of my dandruff as well as being sucked into various other treatments, this video has been a breath of fresh air! I was convinced that washing my hair too much was a bad thing but, after this video, I've realized I've probably not be washing it enough!

Hi, is it possible to use minoxidil as a preventative for hairloss? Thank you 💕

I use Selsun Blue, and as you said it’s recommended to use 2x a week. But we should wash hair often and I do everyday or every other day (depends if I was active or went out). My question is what’s “normal shampoo”? Can I use H&S? Or a clarifying shampoo (which shouldn’t be used daily too)? I don’t know if they are too strong and I’ll end up damaging my hair more. Please give specific type or brand of shampoo recommendation for “normal”. PS: I have dandruff and experiencing hairfall.

Thank you for educating us, Dr. Ellis. My concern is about steroid topicals or pills for SD. The risk of weight gain and/or moon face - is that a real side effect. Could DOX pills be helpful, instead. Also, what are your thoughts on alternating DHue's ACV Shampoo/Conditioner with Psul Mitchell's Tea Tree and Hemp line.

Can you advise on some safe styling methods for people with seb derm? My hair has always been really thick and frizzy which I used to take care of but since getting seb derm I haven't been able to use conditioner or styling products and my hair has become super dry poofy and frizzy. (To clarify I don't use the medication on my hair just on my scalp.) I know it doesn't sound like a serious problem but it's been pretty difficult on my self-esteem. Would love your input!

I was hoping you would mention apple cider vinegar! I heard about that many years ago. Mix one part apple cider vinegar to three parts water in a spray bottle and apply on your scalp and let sit for 20 minutes or so before taking a shower. Then wash your hair as normal. It worked!

I believe I started having dandruff as early as before 6th grade in school. I've been using this particular anti-dandruff shampoo for at least 18 years now. Whenever I tried using regular shampoos (idk why, maybe just to try how it will work on my hair), at least a week after, my scalp gets itchy with white flakes, so I then go back to using this anti-dandruff shampoo again. Just recently, I started to wash may hair every other day because they said (from some people I know and from those videos I have watched) you really don't have to wash hair everyday. After 1-2 weeks, my scalp started getting so itchy. Went back to washing my hair everyday again and now it feels better. My hair gets oily after a day and I guess it's also because of where I live that skipping hair wash is really a no-no.

Yep. I have been using Head & Shoulders every day for almost 40 years. If I do not wash my hair every day, dandruff comes back. I can alternate in a different shampoo a couple of times a week, but definitely Head & Shoulders for the most part. The whole "oily scalp training" is ridiculous. As I have said before, if this were true, people with an oily face could not wash their face daily and lessen their oil production. Absolutely not going to happen. Oil glands and their production have nothing to do with shampoo or soap.

I have severe dandruff I used bunch of these product and doesn’t help, until I change my diet less sugar less carbohydrates also started eating yogurt with probiotics

I noticed, My scalp produces too much oil and when I don’t wash my hair every other day and combing my hair atleast 3 times a day, my dandruff gets really bad in clusters.

Thank you for such clear helpful information!! My dandruff seemed to disappear for about 5 years and is making a resurgent. I live in a very dry climate and started washing my hair only once a week during that time. That seemed to help a lot but for the past year it seems to be back. I am disappointed I have to wash it everyday...haha...I might have to cut it short again... My girls aged 6-12 have the scaling still on their head, (like cradle cap). Are these shampoos safe in their skin? Any recommendations for kids?

I have noticed that mine gets worse when my hair stays for too long, like when I wear a hat and my head gets sweaty. The Nizoral salicylic acid shampoo helps.

My trouble is at first the antidNdruff shampoo works for a while and then my hair get use to it and then it comes back. Recently it has been getting worst, to the point where I think I have dry scalp bc it’s just a patch and it’s only on my right side and my left side is clean. I can’t afford to go to a dermatologist so I was just wondering what else to do? I have tried nizoral and nizoral psoriasis, also selsun blue

I read hormones from Peri menopause etc can cause issues. I notice it sometimes.

10/24/2023 8:42 PM. Can you use a conditioner on your hair after rinsing off the dandruff shampoo? Is regular shampoo used at all. I am not clear on the how to and when to process. Thank you, Mary

Hey, i have struggled with seb dermatitis my whole life as well and well sadly at my local walmart in canda the only other anti danfdrufg shampoo would be salsan blue or the prescrition dose of keto konalza i have used head and shoulder shampoo since i was little and will defintly start washing my hair more often and wisting less between hair washes as i find it makes mines worser as well

Okay … brass tacks - the microbiome on your scalp is imbalanced. Using medicated shampoos treats the symptoms. - stop and it will come back. Firstly, address your diet - secondly - brew some organic cinnamon - strain it (French press for coffee) put it in a spritzer and massage that into your scalp. People do this to kill mold and overgrowth on plant soil and it works. It’s 100 % natural and effective. Spritz at night and leave it in - it smells great and your dandruff will vanish.

Is you have seborrhic dermatitis, should we just wash with dandruff shampoo or can we rotate?

Yeah I asked a dermatologist about my dandruff and he told me to try T-Sal and then left the room without even examining my scalp!

So I am on my journey to finding a shampoo that doesn't give me hives or activate my asthma while helping my dey scalp.

Does anyone have recommedtaions for other dandruff shampoos or should i continue sticking with head and shoulders

@Dr. Sam Ellis thank you for this video. I get more dandruff and shedding of white flakes after washing my hair. Also, if I don't wash my hair for 4 days it gets oily or I notice it always gets oily and build up yellowish oily sebum and white flakes after 4 days of post shampoo. Is this Sebhorroeic dermatitis?

Started this problem before pandemic hits. Tried cream first but did not work. So I went to different dermatologists, prescribed shampoos but just getting worse. Finally, had one dermatologist prescribed clobetasol scalp application, and after a week, seborrheic dermatitis all gone. So I used Head and Shoulders as shampoo, but after a month not putting the steriod I can see it's coming back. I just want to know if I will use again the clobetasol? Coz some doctors said to stop using it's not good for long term use.

Very informative! Do you happen to know if the SheaMoisture Hair Care System Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is good for dandruff? Thanks!

I am not sure what I have but it started in just one spot on the nape of my neck in 2014 and now its the back of my head but not top. If I am working outside and put something around my hair the itching starts, from moisture/sweat. Sleeping and getting too warm also make the back of my hair itch. I also have natural curly hair so washing it everyday is something I cant do since I have to blow it dry then use a flat iron to straighten it. Since it could be yeast, could that be caused by too much sugar, or could medications for anxiety cause it or being under great stress. When mine began I was caring for my mother who had dementia, which led to panic and anxiety from stress thus the need for medication. I have been tempted to just cut all my hair off, look like a sheep and try to get rid of whatever this is, I am so tired of it!!!! I am looking for any advice anyone can offer.

So I've been prescribed the sebo wash and 8x shampoo, the dermatologist told me to mix both of them and then apply it. Surely enough my dandruff is being reduced but my hair is getting dry and rough for some reason, so i just wanted to know whether i should apply oil on my hair or not?

Yes, and not enough people talk about it. I suffered from chronic dandruff for over 10 years and is was so bad it was affecting my eyebrows, around my nose, and behind my ears. I tried various different remedies but they only treated the dandruff temporarily. I then bought a showerhead water filter (you can buy for like $30 on amazon) and noticed the difference immediately. The flakes slowly started to go away as my skin started to heal. The redness and inflammation on my face were gone. Both my skin and hair feel softer and firmer. Highly recommend for anyone suffering from any skin condition.
