Can Henna be applied on oily hair?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Henna is good for oily scalp as it causes dryness in addition to nutritioning the hair. If your hair is too dirty or oily then henna may not have a needed effect, so it is suggestable to wash with plain water, pat dry and then apply henna.

Hey, so I've been dealing with this acne hyperpigmentation and scars issue, and back in February, a dermatologist gave me two creamsdepiwhite and cutisoftfor 20 days. But I kind of messed up by not going back for a follow-up and just kept using them for about seven months. When I finally went back, he said my skin got darker and extra sensitive, leading to more pimples. Now he's given me kozimax and glocin gel. I'm really curious if glocin gel helps fade scars or if it just targets the bacteria. Also, is having regular acne something that could hint at liver damage?

I'm struggling a bit with dandruff and it's really getting to me. Every time I use a medicated shampoo, my hair ends up feeling super dry and rough. I'm on the hunt for a shampoo that not only helps tackle the dandruff but also adds some shine and volume to my hair. Do you have any recommendations?
