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?

I've been losing hair from the root, and I notice a black bulb at the end. This has been happening for about 56 months, and Im averaging around 55 hairs falling daily, mostly when I rinse my hair. Sometimes, my scalp feels a bit irritated. This is new for me because I didn't have hair loss issues before, and no one in my family has experienced baldness before 60. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing telogen effluvium, which is a form of temporary hair loss that usually occurs after a stressful event. To help with hair loss and promote hair growth, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% once daily on the scalp. Additionally, taking biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can also help improve hair health. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair. If the symptoms persist, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
