Change oils/shampoo.: You could have a mild allergy to certain oils or ingredients in the oil. Try a hypoallergenic product for your hair. There are shampoos that do not dry your hair. One of many homemade shampoo formulas is at the following website (copy and paste): http://wellnessmama.com/3701/natural-shampoo/

2-3 times: 2-3 times a week with non toxic shampoo.

Question 6

hi sir i have a hair fall problem give me some medication or tell me about perfect diet for hair care?

Accepted Answer

Depends on cause...: One's primary care doctor can check for medical causes. If none are found, then one can see a dermatologist, especially one specializing in hair restoration (some treatments: minoxidil, finasteride, hair transplants, ...). Medical causes may include: hormonal problems (low thyroid), seborrhea, alopecia areata, stressful illness. Other causes: genetic male/female pattern baldness, telogen effluvium.

Question 7

any tips on how to handle hair care after a neck injury?

Accepted Answer

With a neck brace?: If the neck brace is the problem then waterproofing it for shower use can be a solution. Otherwise a wash bowl, sponge, and some assistance could be your answer.

Question 8

hair care from rough/hard water....  ? which shampoo ir hair conditioner will be best and for skin care too

Accepted Answer

Hair products: I like the hair products without the chemicals or sulfites.   Purology is good.  The best one I have found is sri bella from melaleuca - 
melaleuca stands for tea tree oil which is very healthy for the skin.  They also have a lotion called renew that works well.

Question 9

i have a healthy hair care routine. but i still suffer from dandruff. i have heard that wearing a helmet causes it.tried many shampoos but its no help?

Accepted Answer

Dandruff treatment: Flaking of the scalp is most common caused by seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis.  If over the counter shampoos that contain tar, selenium sulfide, or salicylic acid do not help, dandruff may be severe enough to require prescription medications to reduce inflammation and scaling.  Please see your dermatologist for treatment.  Wearing a helmet usually does not worsen dandruff.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Haircare: I recommend avoiding all OTC products that allegedly help with health issues.  Ther is no requirement they be backed by any data or quality control of what goes in them.  BEWARE!!
