Anti-Dandruff Shampoo Not Working!?

I have used both head and sholders anti-dandruff shampoo and elvive intensive anti-dandruff shampoo and neither have been very successful, they stop dandruff for around 1 day but on the second day the dandruff has returned, I don't really have time to have a shower every day so is there a way to resolve this?Anti-Dandruff Shampoo Not Working!?
The thing with dandruff is that there isn't just one solution to everyone. You have observe when you get flare-ups the most, is it during cold wheather? Is it when you wash your hair everyday or is it when you don't wash your hair? You need to do trial and error. Personally, I don't like using head and shoulders every time I wash. The best solution for me (after years of trying) is to ALTERNATE your shampoos. I alternate head and shoulders and Clear antidandruff. I also find Nizoral is the BEST medicated shampoo, but use just once or 2x a week as it can cause hair to fall out. Nizoral is really good if you've got the worst flare-ups (u know, those days when you think the scaling and flaking seems impossible to fix).





In my case, not washing everyday worsens the dandruff, but see for yourself in your case Treat your scalp like it has a mind of its own and guess what it might not like. Also, stress can really play a part....You need to sleep at an earlier time and wake up early in the mornings after 7-8 hours of sleep. Dandruff and psoriasis are related, and psoriasis is actually the result of an immune system malfunction, which is WHY stress plays a huge role.





Good luck.Anti-Dandruff Shampoo Not Working!?
First of all, uh I think it would be wise to try and find time to take a shower every day. Everyone's busy, but hey, we all need showers. That might help get rid of the dandruff problem.





That said, maybe it's not really dandruff, but just dry scalp. The ingredient in dandruff shampoo (pyrithione zinc or salisylic acid) could be causing an already dry scalp to get worse. If that's the case, use a good moisturizing conditioner (and yes, make time for that). Good rule of thumb: If it's large scaly, greasy or yellowish-tinged flakes, probably dandruff. If it's small bits of ';snowy'; white flakes, possibly dry scalp.
you could try Sulfur 8 anti-dandriff shampoo, and the hair dressing works well, you could put the hair dressing on overnight and wash it out in the morning, hope that helps
Try Selsum Blue shampoo anti itch and dandruff control.
