I'm having a really hard time with fingerprint machines not recognizing my fingerprints. I've tried different machines, including the ones used for exams where they capture biometrics. The issue just keeps happening. Plus, the skin on my hands peels off frequently, like once every two months. I'm worried and not sure what to do. Can you help me figure out what's causing this and what I can do about it?

I'm really concerned because I have dandruff and some rashes on my scalp, and my doctor suggested using Kz lotion and CandidB lotion. But I forgot to ask how exactly I should be using both of these together. Could you guide me on how to apply them properly? Should they be used at different times, or can I mix them? I'm a bit unsure and want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Use KZ lotion on your scalpapply it, leave it for 3-5 minutes, and then rinse off. For Candid-B, apply a thin layer only on the rash-affected areas of your scalp, twice daily, unless told otherwise. Keep both away from your eyes, and if irritation happens, let your doctor know.

I've recently had a keratin treatment done on my hair, and now I'm dealing with some dandruff issues. I'm considering using Ketomac anti-dandruff shampoo, but I'm worried. Is it safe to use this shampoo on my keratin-treated hair, or could it potentially affect the treatment?

you can use it no problem.
