I'm experiencing some allergic reactions on my face after using tretin. I was advised to start with applying it for 10 minutes, then move to 20 minutes, and eventually increase the duration gradually. But there was this one time I left it on for a longer period, and that's when I noticed these reactions. There are dry patches on the affected area now. What should I do?

View allI'm really worried about my hair. It's become unevenly thick, super rough, and the texture is all bumpylike I can literally feel the bumps when I run my fingers through it. It used to be thick and healthy, and I haven't colored it or done anything drastic to it. This has been happening over the past few years and I just don't understand why. Do you have any idea what's causing this or maybe some natural treatments I could try?
Uneven hair thickness and rough texture can be frustrating. _Possible Reasons_ 1. *Protein imbalance*: Hair is made of protein, and an imbalance can cause uneven texture. 2. *Moisture deficiency*: Lack of moisture can lead to rough, brittle hair. 3. *Hair cuticle damage*: Damage to the hair cuticle can cause bumps and rough texture. 4. *Nutritional deficiencies*: Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals like biotin, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids can affect hair health. 5. *Hormonal changes*: Hormonal fluctuations can lead to changes in hair texture. _Natural Solutions_ 1. *Coconut oil treatment*: Apply warm coconut oil to your hair, cover with a shower cap, and leave it on for 2-3 hours before washing. 2. *Banana and honey mask*: Mash ripe banana and mix with honey. Apply to your hair and leave it on for 15-20 minutes before rinsing. 3. *Apple cider vinegar rinse*: Mix equal parts water and apple cider vinegar as a final rinse after shampooing to balance your hair's pH. 4. *Biotin supplements*: Consult with your doctor before taking biotin supplements to support hair growth and health. 5. *Use a wide-tooth comb*: Gentle combing can help reduce breakage and tangles.

I've been using mintop 10 for a couple of months, but lately, like over the last 10 days, my hair fall seems to have increased. Should I keep using it or is it better to stop? Can you give me some advice on what to do?
