How do I get rid of my dandruff?
Ivs had dandruff for over 3 years. I've tried everything from oil treatments to every anti-dandruff shampoo at the store. Nothing works! I feel like my dandruff has some resistance or I have a genetic condition. Should I contact my doctor for help or should I shave my head to get rid of it?

Change your shampoo brand to start with; Depending on whether your scalp is oily, or dry, you may or may not need a conditioner, or that shampoo that incorporates a conditioner with a shampoo.
You may also want to make sure that you rinse your hair thoroughly after you shampoo your hair.
Dry your scalp thoroughly every single time. A moist scalp gets irritated.
Stop using a hot hair dryer, or any high alcohol content setting products, and see if that helps.
A tip: as a final rinse, dilute half a glass of white vinegar with a half glass of warm water, and use it as a final rinse. Let it sit on your scalp for a minute or so, and rinse out. Works for me.

There is no direct cure for dandruff but one can effectively control it. choose the right treatment in accordance with the cause of dandruff and its symptoms. Anti-fungal shampoo and anti-fungal creams are used when treating mild cases of dandruff but in case of severe dandruff problems uses laser treatment.
