I"d see your doctor, have your iron and thyroid levels checked. I just started using Christophe Robin cleansing hair mask with lemon(www.beautyhabit.com) it's very gentle and amazing! It's expensive though.

Suegy, I have been taking 1000 mcg of biotin. I also take a multi-vitamin with iron, so I do not think I am deficient in those two areas. The only reason I do not go to the doctor first is that I do not have good insurance. I am going to try Trader Joe's natural line of Tea Tree Oil shampoo and hydrating conditioner. Both products have gotten really good reviews on Amazon. If that is still too harsh, then my next move would be to just use the conditioner. I live in Chicago and we have had a long, dry winter which has just compounded matters.
Perhaps I need to add more fish or fish oil capsules into my diet. |

This is how I fixed my hair and scalp. I switched over to the Sally's version of Moroccan Oil, it's called One 'n Only. I use the sulfate free shampoo and the restorative hair mask. After that, I rub six pumps of Miracle 7 treatment between my palms and run it through my hair, followed by a pump of One 'n Only argan styling cream.
That brand line also has a dry scalp serum. On alternative days, I do not shampoo but use either Hair One, Sally's answer to WEN, or I massage my scalp with the argan oil conditioner to remove excess sweat and styling product and rinse in lukewarm then cool water. Then I again treat with Miracle Seven and styling cream. I went from damaged, dry, frizzy, breaking hair and flaking scalp to nice healthy, smooth and shiny hair again. What I like about Sally's is most of the products are also available in trial sizes. Good luck! |

I have had serious scalp issues for years. Dry, flaking, sometimes bleeding. I've seen a dermatologist; I've tried everything under the sun. The only thing that worked for me was Nizoral. There was just a thread about it. It was like a miracle for me. And the best part is that it doesn't smell. I think it's in short supply however and you will need a prescription for it.
