In the past...I would say 5 months, my hair has developed a nasty case of dandruff.
I say dandruff because I don't know what else to categorize it as. I've tried everything known to man...coal tar, sulfur, various dandruff shampoos. It still won't go away.
To describe it, I would say the flakes are overly large, not quite as big and cornflakes, but they aren't your normal everyday flakes, either. It sticks to my scalp. I try and brush or oil my scalp before washing to loosen it, and I thoroughly rinse out all my products...so I don't think it's product buildup. Besides that, I do apple cider vinegar rinses once a week, and that's supposed to help with dandruff, so I've heard. Ain't doing a thing for it.
My scalp looks clean and pink after washing, but when my hair dries, there's this thick sheet of dry skin/dandruff/whatever all over again. It's very frustrating, and embarassing, as I don't want people to think I have some kind of scalp disease or something.
Has anyone experienced this, or have any leads or ideas on what it could be?
