Dry scalp + hair fall

What shampoo and treatment i should used as i have itchy dandruff dry scalp and i am having crazy hair loss.

Re: Dry scalp + hair fall

If you're not on any new medications or anything then I would check with your doctor about the hair loss.

 

As for the itchy scalp I suggest Briogeo Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-exfoliating Scalp Scrub Shampoo 8 oz/ 236 mL at least once or twice a week (depending on how often you wash your hair), this will gently exfoliate your scalp while cleansing your hair so it won't be so itchy. I have eczema on my scalp and this works for me. Any other hair washing days I suggest something gentle like Briogeo Superfoods Banana + Coconut Nourishing Shampoo + Conditioner Duo for Dry Hair so you don't irritate your scalp.

I'd definitely hold off on any of the Living Proof products when it comes to hair loss. Do a quick search on Sephora's Community Conversations and you'll find out why. Basically, it'll make it worse. 

You might have seborrheic dermatitis or scalp psoriasis. I was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis and alopecia. 

I suggest trying Nizoral Anti-Dandruff shampoo. The main ingredient is ketoconazole. Recent studies suggest ketoconazole helps with hair growth.

You can also try Neutrogena T/GEL Extra Strength Therapeutic Shampoo with coal tar extract. 

Avoid hair products that may be drying, such as hair sprays and shampoos with a high alcohol content. The higher up on the ingredient list, the more of the product it contains.

You can check out the dermatologist section at

for any recent scientific studies on the subject.

It is normal during a high stress period to see more hair loss then usual. We are all in a high stress zone right now. 
If your scalp is itchy, it’s much more likely to be dry scalp then dandruff. Dandruff is large, yellow flakes that smell. 
Try either of the below:
Living Proof Scalp Care Dry Scalp Treatment 3.4 oz/ 100 mL

Moroccanoil Dry Scalp Treatment 1.5 oz/ 45 mL
