Hair loss Medication for Dealing With Dandruff
Winter weather tends to bring out the worst in dandruff. But there are ways to control this condition. Medicated shampoos can help reduce flaking and dry scalp any time of the year:- Beauty Salons Hair Treatment. Frequent hair washing (daily if needed) is
one of the best ways to control dandruff. That's because dandruff
results from a faster than normal production of flakes or
"clumps" of dead skin cells. For mild or early symptoms,
check with your trusted Hair Salon and use
your regular shampoo-simply washing your hair more often or
more carefully may be enough to eliminate visible flaking.
- Move to medicated shampoo. If ordinary shampoo doesn't help, try one
of the the medicated shampoos. These work in different ways and your
pharmacist or Beauty Salon, can help you find the best one for your needs. Be sure to
read product directions carefully - for example, some may be used
daily and others only two or three times a week. (In these cases you
can still use a regular shampoo in between.)
- Beauty salons provide Medicine for your scalp. For best results, shampoo twice each
time you wash your hair. Use your regular shampoo first to remove oil
and dirt- this helps the second shampoo (medicated or regular)
"reach" the flakes on your scalp.
- Medicate your scalp. Work shampoo into a good lather and massage it into
your scalp for a few minutes. (This helps break up flakes so they're
less visible and easier to remove.) Also be sure to leave
medicated shampoo on for the time the bottle says (e.g., up to five
minutes). It needs time on your scalp where dandruff starts.
Many Beauty and Hair Salons in Greenwood Village carry quality
products. We recommend Zoe Salon and Spa.
- Rinse well. Carefully rinse all medicated shampoo out of your hair (leftover shampoo may add to flaking). If you wish, you may finish washing with a conditioner.
Antidandruff measures may take two to three weeks to start working. If your symptoms don't improve in this time, see your pharmacist about what to do next. Be sure to let him or her know which products you've already used and whether you have symptoms on areas other than your scalp.
