Dandruff/Dry scalp

[amandada]

Over the last few months I've developed a terrible flaky scalp. I don't know if it's "true" dandruff or just flaky skin(sorry if you're eating!), but either way, I'm like a walking snowstorm:o

I've used T Gel shampoo, and whilst it does cut down the snowstorm, it's leaving my hair terribly dry no matter how much I condition it (I have long hair), and I'm really reluctant to get it all chopped off!

Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for alternatives?

Oilatum Shampoo is fantastic.

If I run out and use anything else in the mean time, I get a flaky scalp back in no time.

It's a range of Excema products.

See your GP: there may be an underlying problem which needs attention.
