Can I use Anaboom shampoo to help with my dandruff? I'm really frustrated with my hair fall. Every time I wash my hair, it seems like I've got even more hair falling out. Is there anything I can do to control both the dandruff and hair fall?

I recommend using Nizoral shampoo for dandruff control. It contains ketoconazole which is effective against dandruff. Use it twice a week for 8 weeks. Additionally, you can use Minoxidil solution 5% for hair fall. Apply 1ml twice daily on the scalp.

I'm looking for some advice on the best skin cream to use daily for acne and oily skin. I've been using lacto calamine, but I'm not sure if it's the right choice. Can you help me figure out if it's good or if there's something better out there?

I'm a little confused about the instructions my dermatologist gave me for using Candid B lotion on my scalp. He mentioned something about 33 drops twice a day, but I can't remember if I should be applying it morning and night, or at different times. Also, should I be massaging it into my scalp? Would love some guidance on this, as I want to make sure I'm using it correctly.

Candid B lotion contains a combination of antifungals and corticosteroid components. It should be applied once in the morning and once in the night before bed. You should use the pulp of your fingers to gently massage the lotion into your scalp.

I've got naturally curly hair, but it's become super dry and frizzy over time because I haven't maintained it well. With a family event coming up, I'm thinking about getting my hair treated, and someone recommended cysteine treatment to tame it. I'm a bit worried about any side effects that might come with it. Is it safe to go for the cysteine treatment, or should I consider keratin or chemical smoothing treatments instead? Would love to get your thoughts on this.
