A member asked:
Is it okay to shampoo your hair daily if you have seborrheic dermatitis? i'm starting to lose hair at the hairline and am only 18 years of age?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You need to use a shampoo to treat the seborrheic dermatitis. The best doctor to advise you on the best treatment for this is a dermatologist. The dermatologist will advise you on the best way to treat this, including the best shampoo to use. Once the dermatitis is treated, you will be able to see if the hair returns. The dermatologist can help with this as well. Best of luck to you!
