Hair problems 2

Lol it seems that I'm updating on what's been my hair condition after a year. O_O

Recently I have this problem of dandruff, which is kinda worse than before. ( ̄- ̄) I wonder why this is even happening?? In the past, like about 10 years ago, I will only have dandruff if I didn't wash my hair for one day. Ok, so I have been washing my hair daily to keep it clean and of cos due to my oily scalp I cannot don't wash my hair. Or else, the next day my hair will also appear greasy and uncomfortable.

But now, every few days I will see lots of dandruff on my head in the morning. The thing is I have been rotating shampoos → 2 anti-dandruff ones and one Ketoconazole shampoo to combat this problem. The medicated one seems effective, but after I used the other shampoos the dandruff problem will be back. I wonder why!! Is it that my skin renewal is just this fast so I can't control it at all? It's pretty annoying and using different shampoos don't help! Or is it that I should just use normal shampoo instead of anti-dandruff ones? Isn't anti-dandruff supposed to be effective in some way? But it just don't work for me. How irritating is this. ( ̄^ ̄)

I've stopped using conditioner but just hair lotion at night or day if I were to go out. I think my hair is equally smooth and manageable with just using the lotion. I thought I couldn't live without conditioner but I think lotion is more important to me! Even if I use conditioner, I still can't let my hair be without lotion. It will still look listless and dry. I've also read that hair lotion is similar to moisturizer for the face so is definitely more important right? Ok, part of me also wanna save the money on conditioner. lol.


I have been using Minoxidil 5% really diligently although I've been told to use this years ago. I just suddenly got so into haircare for myself. haha. It's supposed to be used for stop hair loss and promotes hair regrowth. It's been months now that I have been using this consistently. I don't know is it effective to me as of now. cos I still feel that I have the same amount of hair. (・□・)And whenever I use Minoxidil to spray on my scalp I see my hair dropped a lot at the same time. It is actually a common side effect right? And I think this is also the reason for my dandruff problem now being more prominent. I just read that there can be so many side effects to this. Okay, so I got 2 of them right? =/

I don't know how long does it take to see the effects of hair growth from a product but I remember I saw somewhere that it's 6 months? Anyway, I've once went to National Skin Center years back and I find that kinda amusing. The doctor didn't even bother to check my scalp at all until we asked him to. We were sort of puzzled at what the doctor was doing. He was asking me all those questions in which I know of myself especially on the diet part. I'm really normal ok! And shouldn't a skin doctor be checking out my scalp/skin in the first place? He seemed really reluctant when we requested that. -_- And in the end, the consultation was so fast and I was told to get a blood test. Duh! I knew my blood got drawn for nothing. I'm really normal!! Nothing wrong with my blood. It's just my scalp/skin problem...maybe cos I've been eating outside food everyday and there's MSG which causes my hair loss problem. But anyway, the doctor didn't point this out. Wasted money to see specialist, really. They can't solve my problem. In the end, seeing a GP is equally the same. He also asked me to use Minoxidil. Well well.

Okay I don't know what else I can do about my problem now. I remember reading from a forum really long ago and that many people have the same experience as me at NSC [if my memory didn't fail me]. Oh well, so I'm not alone!! I guess all I can do now is still to apply the Minoxidil diligently. And see how it goes. Not really that I have enough money to go to hair growth center to treat my problem. Does hair salon's hair treatment helps at all? I've once done a hair treatment for the hair and scalp. Supposed to be caring for them. I don't know if it's really good but the products applied on my scalp was meant to care for it and with steam for it to increase absorption. My hair turned out really smooth that day. haha. But it was just that day so I think it still takes lots of effort on a daily basis to keep the condition well. Now I just hope my dandruff and hair loss problem can be solved. Can't think of what else to do already.

That's all. Maybe update in a years' time! hahaha.
