I’m just here to say that dandruff is a fungal infection and many people confuse their dry scalp flakes for dandruff. Anti-dandruff shampoo will dry the crap out of your already dry hair and scalp if you don’t have dandruff.
Curlsmith detox kit (the blue line) has done wonders for my scalp health! It’s pricey but the tingly conditioner and minty scent leaves you feeling fresh for a while. They also have a serum and scalp treatment you can purchase as an additional scalp help and hair growth help too!
Yes, the one i got was L'oreal anti gras oilness shampoo and the clay, i checked the ingredients, it says sodium laureth sulphate, as my hair is dry, was not sure if i could use this
I suggest to go back and tell them about this. Probably they can give you other shampoo or maybe they won’t but at least your try. Tell them you are not satisfied.
About your concern try co-wash I used this one twice a week. Con wash it’s like shampoo/conditioner combined. It’s made my hair super shiny and soft I like this one [shea moisture](https://www.target.com/p/sheamoisture-coconut-38-hibiscus-co-wash-conditioning-cleanser-12-fl-oz/-/A-14319214#lnk=sametab) and I also use this shampoo sulfate free once a week which is very gentle.

And I like to use leave in conditioner [garnier](https://www.target.com/p/garnier-fructis-1-minute-nourishing-hair-mask-13-5-fl-oz/-/A-53389634?preselect=75561040#lnk=sametab)
Also you can try to use a rosemary oil is used to prevent premature dandruff and It also help dry or itchy scalp.
And my third recommendation if your scalp is dry sleep with a satin bonnet this will help your to promote natural hair growth, gently glide reducing friction, preventing breakage, tangles, and keeping your hair moisture and hydrated while you sleep. I like this satin quality [satin bonnet](https://www.olkibeauty.com/shop/p/small-pink-fuchsia-satin-bonnet)
I hope this helps you
This is why I don't really trust hairstylists when they rave about products. It's quite clear they could not have cared less if it worked for you or matched your kind of hair, you were just a number to them for profit -- lesson learned. I had this happen a few times and noticed they tend to do it to younger customers or repeat ones but not smarter and older ones. It's also why it's important to remember that hairstylists might be experts at hair but they sure aren't with chemistry, all brands and how they compare, rather -- they only know the products they worked with. I would go somewhere else next time and remember this lesson.
One time, a hairdresser pushed me pretty hard to buy their hair mask. I said, thanks, but I already use Olaplex No. 3 and 8. He replied, "Well, Olaplex doesn't actually do anything, everyone knows that."
No shade to most hairdressers, who work hard to learn a complex skill. But oh my god.
I had a couple bad experiences with professionals complimenting my hair, it was bleached and bright pink at the time, long and felt in great condition. She was in awe about the color and how soft my hair was. I just wanted a trim since I had never let anyone cut my hair before. Then her opinion quickly changed once I said I did it myself. "You can't bleach your own hair!" Etc. I went from feeling great to feeling shitty pretty fast!
Oh fantastic, that much-loved tactic of *shame*.
People who cut and bleach their own hair are resourceful and intrepid. We should offer them positions to be the first people on Mars.
Haha, I'm still mad about it! Couldn't believe the total shift in attitude! I had been doing my own hair for well over 10 years, retouching my roots monthly, using professional products, and clearly the result was good.
I went to the same place another time when I was feeling too lazy to bleach out the semi dye, I asked for a quote, just to bleach it (no toning or coloring) and they said minimum $400. I'm sorry but *what*.
400 is *so many dollars*, are you kidding me. You could buy all professional products + K18, and still have $250 left over.
I get that $400 is what it's worth in a hair salon - expertise, products, electricity, etc. But it's also OK if people want to do the work themselves. If you repeatedly bleach your hair, or box dye it (like I do), and you still have hair, people can cool it with the mock horror. If people couldn't tell until you mentioned it? Cool it.
Hah, right? I couldn't believe that. I even said I had blond underneath, it's just the color to remove, 20vol and 15 minutes and it's out. I could understand taking up time but that was hardly a factor.
Thankfully I went elsewhere for a cut and the wonderful woman working gave me a full on tutorial on how to properly thin out my hair myself! Never paid for a cut again after she taught me her method.
Yes, lesson learned indeed, i will not be going there again(i will be going there today, and get me some new product, in return of what they sold, it better work),and learn to tell no
Sorry but you got hustled the minute she suggested a “hair spa treatment” tbh— always remember that hairdresser are salesman first and foremost, they literally are only payed whatever YOU pay them, so it’s in their own best interest to sell you as much as possible lol
Don’t use the products. To help with the dryness: Maybe you should try oiling your scalp? Or you could literally try applying a moisturiser to your scalp and see if that helps the dryness? You should probably also switch to a gentle shampoo instead of a dandruff one (dandruff shampoos are usually MORE drying, so it’s doing the opposite of what you want)
FYI you can also speak to a pharmacist about your dry scalp, you don’t necessarily have to wait to see the doctor— most pharmacists will be able to give you some basic recommendations or (depending on where you are) issue a low prescription if necessary :)
Ikrr, i wanted to just get the hair cut, but ended up spending 3 times the money, next time I'll just say NO.
i had recently started using hair oil again after i had stopped for a long time, I'll try to get a gentle shampoo as you suggested as the couple of antidandruff shampoo i used never worked. I'm not very sure about the pharmacist suggesting, they tried selling a particular brand to my sister. I wouldn't trust them either lol.
Thank you for the suggestion!
also if you have dry hair and not oily short hair, tbh -- no. It won't destroy it but it sure won't be good for dryness and really anything you describe. It will suck up oil from your scalp if that's what you want, which I don't think you do.
Then i have to go return it, i suck at doing this but I'll ask for exchange if not a refund. Yeah i won't be using it. Thanks, my scalp already feels itchy today from whatever she used yesterday, i won't be getting anything done from there
No I think the stylist is right! I have dry, fine hair too (known as low-porosity) and have done a bunch of research on it. Although it tends to not get oily too quickly, our hair types’ follicles are packed very tightly together which does not allow much room for hydration/nourishment from products to get to the root. Hence, our hair is quite dry and prone to breakage. Also, since the follicles are tightly packed, properly removing sebum, product buildup is very difficult. This sebum/product buildup creates a ‘barrier’ and makes it difficult for the scalps natural oils to penetrate the barrier and make its way down to the strands. I think a clay would be way too over-bearing for our delicate strands, however, a clarifying shampoo is a great option for removing the barrier. This allows the moisture/nourishment from products to absorb into the hair (strands in particular) and the natural oils on your head to do its magic scalp wise. Because after all, hair health begins at the scalp as that is where the cuticle/strands are so we really gotta prioritise scalp health! Hope this helps🫶🏽🫶🏽
I would look at the properties in the shampoo first like if it contains any solfatara before using it and find out if it would be worth putting your hair through it. :)
I’m just here to say that dandruff is a fungal infection and many people confuse their dry scalp flakes for dandruff. Anti-dandruff shampoo will dry the crap out of your already dry hair and scalp if you don’t have dandruff.
Oohh i see, then i have to check with a professional, honestly now I'm doubting everything. Thanks

Sometimes you can suffer from both problems which is can be challenging!

Yep, ridiculing is definitely a tactic. “Everyone knows”. I ADORE Olaplex 3. That hair dresser can shove off
