quietGuy13 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 I have extreme dandruff all overmybody: Skin, eyebrows , scalp, ears i've had it forever, i try all the shampoos and medical shampoos nothing works. It might be genetic because my father is same way. And it also doesn't help that i can't hide it. the flakes stick out and then you can see them through my skin. i'm afriad women will be disgusted because they're so nice and have beautiful hair and i'm full of dandruff. People have told me(online) to work on fixing my dandruff before even trying to meet girls..but i've tried working on it. nothing has worked.

Yes, most people will find it disgusting, regardless of gender. What have you tried doing? Have you actually gone to a Derm specialist?
Author quietGuy13 Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 dandruff shampoo, listerine, nizoral, went to dermatologist who just told me to try nizoral(which i already had)). i've tried various dandruff shampoos and spent 20 to 30 minutes with it on my scalp(as told by DERMatologist on tv)
Viva Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Try African Black Soap and Unrefined Shea Butter from CoastalScents (dot) com. It helps tremendously with people who have eczema or psoriasis or a combination with both. It should help. My grandmother had it too so this is how I'm familiar with it. I also used to work at Sephora so people would come in asking me questions like these. I've used african black soap on my skin because its the best clean feeling ever. Trust me, read the reviews on their site, it's worth a try. Oh and even in Sephora they sell this shampoo/conditioner and related sets called "Ojon". It's a really. really good product. And if you do have a problem like the two I mentioned above, those can always be helped naturally by having a healthier eating habit. Lots and lots of water
sagetalk Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 It sounds like it may be fungus related (especially if the Doc said to try Nizoral). Try buying Oil of Oregano in oil form and try it on a few parts of your body. If it clears up in the few spots use it everywhere. The stuff smells bad so do it at night.
Eeyore79 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 My skin is extremely dry, and it flakes and itches if I don't exfoliate and moisturise. I find that exfoliating and moisturising my entire body a couple of times a week keeps the flaky skin at bay. I also exfoliate and moisturise my face every day, and I use a leave-on hair conditioner. Does your skin feel dry, tight and itchy (this could be helped by exfoliating and moisturising) or is it more of a greasy kind of dandruff?
LucreziaBorgia Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Have you thought about seeing a dietician? Sometimes a change in diet can get the yeast (dandruff) under control.
