    @MissArmyNurse chagrin valley shampoo bars are good and so is giovanni shampoo. I wouldn’t advise using a medicated shampoo BUT many people have luck with nizoral. I’m not a doctor but I’ve gotten my dermatitis under control using natural oils and chagrin valley shampoo bars. I use giovanni to clarify

    what if your hair is already dry?

    @navylaks2: If you are referring to Psoriasis and Seborrheic Dermatitis, then the treatment may be the same depending upon the severity of each condition.

    @navylaks2: You can have each in different parts of your body, but not in? the same area.

    This definitely doesn’t work for most black people. I’m black also. I have seborrheic dermatitis (on face, ears, scalp) and found the best thing for it is sulfur. Try a sulfur shampoo like Sebulex. I make my own 10% sulfur shampoo and lotion. I was my hair 1-2 times a week. It has worked better than any prescribed medicine’s I’ve used and I’ve had this condition for over 20 years. Good Luck. :)

    I have curly hair to and if I wash everyday it will be very very dry. Someone told me that lime juice would work so I have been trying and helps a lot so far.

    I used to have HORRIBLE flaking. Shampooing worked for a day luckily I’m young and i found out early that i have eczema on my scalp. I have to put my medication on my scalp and make sure its washed at least once a weak. Maybe you can make me some shampoo? lol

    Im black, so i cant shampoo everyday or my hair will be stiff and dry. What about for African Amerian hair?

    And I have just been using Head and Shoulders all these last 6 years for like 5 times a week. What method has worked for you ? Thanks. And also styling gel,wax and sprays just seem to cause itchy scalp if I don’t rinse it off after before I go to sleep(like I want to do that coming home from partying late in the morning).

  15. klarinetta says:

    7 years ago or so a doctor advised me to use T/gel 1-2 times a week,Fungoral 1 time a week and something like Head and Shoulders other days. It cured the red sometimes hard and itchy scalp but the flakes increased like crazy. Then after less than a year I changed to only Head and Shoulders and it worked miracle. Only now and then tiny flakes and red scalp at the forehead. But now(been -4°C but not colder than other winters) the last month everything is coming back.
