Question by gothika: What type of dandruff is causing my hair loss?
I’m african american female with relaxed hair I’ve been using no lye relaxers. I have very itchy scalp and dandruff that seems to be causing hair loss. My hair comes out from the root, and I see a white bulb at the root of the hair. I’ve tried the following products: Nizoral, Neutrogena T Gel, Selsum Blue, Head and Shoulders, tea tree oil, olive oil, several scalp oils and creams, hot oil treatments, and it just makes the dandruff even worse. I wash my hair once a week, condition it and use very little heat and when I do use heat I use thermal protection. What could I do to get my scalp healthy?

2 year ago I was having this problem I know that your having a allergic reaction to SLS this is a harsh detergent that they use in every commercial shampoo. I suggest to try a organic shampoo that doesn’t have this cheap chemical .I recommend to use desert essence fragrance free shampoo is about $ 7 buck at vitamin shoppe stores, it was the only thing that really help me is a organic shampoo that cleans & stop my dandruff problem .I have 1 year using it & my dandruff has never appear now my hair feels more healthy also very shiny but if you don’t get better using this shampoo for one month you really need to go to a dermatologist so you can get a professional answer. desertessence.com
vitaminshoppe.com store

Question by Audrey’s mommy?: Paragard copper IUD causing hair loss/acne?
my hair has been falling out a LOT. and i now have severe acne. i have very thick hair, and now it’s thin. i also have 2 bald spots on the sides of my head. i looked it up and a lot of women are saying ever since they got the Paragard IUD they experienced hair loss, and acne. i know the IUD doesn’t contain hormones, but people are saying it’s something in the copper causing it. i know the hair loss isn’t because i’m getting old since i’m only 15. anyways, did anyone else experience hair loss/acne?

Hair loss and acne are not known side effects of Paragard. You should have your thyroid checked as hair loss may be a symptom of hypothyroidism. If you gave been on other hormonal contraceptives such as the pill and recently got your IUD the acne may just be worse due stopping the pill. One benefit of estrogen/progestin contraceptives is reduced acne. The IUD is a much more reliable contraceptive than most others so I do not recommend removing it. Try some benzoyl peroxide lotion (oxy 10) and salysalic wash. Bring your acne up to your gyn too.

Oddly enough i had the same thing happen… my stylist used to say i had enough hair for 4 people. Also, I never had any acne even through puberty until i got my paragaurd. I talked to the obgyn about it and low and behold i was experiencing copper poisoning. Everyone is different, but it never hurts to talk to your doctor. Best of luck to you.

Question by kim s: Why is my hair starting to fall off in huge chunks causing bald spots?
I have had problems where my hair has been falling out by the minute and everytime i comb it these huge chunks fall out. It scared me. Its like the side and back of head are falling out and going bald and I cant fix it. I am afraid I am sick. What do I do?
I am not taking any medications at this point but I do allegra once in a while for allergies. Thats it! Its like the right side and back of my head are so short and bald.
