I've been dealing with hair loss for the past four years and I'm not really seeing results from the treatments I've had with skin specialists. I'm wondering if using onion juice on the bald spots might help. Do you think that's a good idea or could it be harmful? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give me.

View allI'm dealing with really rough and frizzy hair right now and I'm thinking about getting a keratin treatment. But I've also got a lot of dandruff at the moment. Is it a bad idea to go ahead with the keratin treatment while I'm dealing with dandruff, or should I wait until it clears up? Also, does a keratin treatment lead to any hair loss? Would love some advice.

I'm not overweight and I do exercises regularly, but I've got Acanthosis nigricans on my neck and some other parts of my body. It's really frustrating and I'm starting to feel a bit depressed about it. I feel like I'm perfectly fit, so I'm just confused why I'm dealing with this. Is there any way to get my normal skin back?
Acanthosis nigricans can sometimes occur in individuals who are not overweight and lead an active lifestyle. To help improve the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans, you can try using a topical cream containing 20% urea or 12% ammonium lactate. These creams can help exfoliate the affected areas and improve the skin texture. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and keeping your skin well moisturized can also help in reducing the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans.

I'm living in Chennai and I'm worried about the water here since it's really salty and it seems to be affecting my hair a lot. I'm noticing that I'm losing about 50 strands every time I shower, and it's freaking me out because I didn't have this problem when I was back in my hometown. Plus, my scalp has been getting super itchy. Could you recommend a good shampoo for this situation? Also, any diet tips to help strengthen my hair would be great.
