View Full Version : Question re Dandruff & 2 Products I Love

Hi everyone. I have been having dry scalp and flakes since the cold weather started.

This may sound like a stupid question, but I love my shampoo and conditioner called Brilliant Brunnette. I like the way it makes my hair shine and brings out the highlights.

Only problem is it does nothing to help with the flakiness.

Do you think using Head n Shoulders first, then using my favorites would help control the flaking? Or would I just be wasting my time because the Brilliants would then strip my hair back down causing the dryness?

Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem.

Thank you.

I don't think you should wash your hair twice, especially when your scalp is already very dry.

Head 'n Shoulder only. And maybe your favorit shampoo for special ocassion...

nikkist, i know it seems like such a simple question and answer, but i love those products and can't believe i can't use them all winter long!

Thanks for writing.

I had the same flakeness and dryness problem. I used Nizoral (sp?) instead of Head and Shoulders because I found it worked better. I didn't use it every day just a few times a week. The other times I used other shampoos.

KDD, is that the one that has kind of a weird smell? I have been using the Head&Shoulders w/extra volume and it makes my hair soft and it smells fine, but I still see some flakes.

I think I tried Nizoral a LONG time ago...it may smell better now.

I'm thinking about using it because what's the point of the H&S if I still have flakes?

The Nizoral is keeping the dandruff under control just using it a few times per week?

Thanks,
Salty

I haven't even noticed a smell with that stuff.

On the box it says to use is 3 to 4 times a week for about 8 weeks and then use it as needed. I did it the 3 to 4 times for 8 weeks and now only need to use it once a week.

I had the same problem with the Head and Shoulders not working and this is what helped me.

Thanks KDD. Doing what you did is probably exactly what I need.

I appreciate the advice and am going to get some today.

KDD, it worked well.

Now my problem is my hair is thinning. I have to post about it.

It had nothing to do with the Nizoral. I have no idea what to do.

Thank you for your help.
