Head Shaving, Grooming & Care > How To Protect Your Bald Head

Shaved my head and I still have dandruff. What to do?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Once I started blade shaving, my dandruff problem went away.  I think the daily head scrape removes any flakes before they are large enough to see and the lack of hair allows the scalp to naturally exfoliate.  I also used the generic version of Apricot Scrub recommended by Buddha at first, but now have eliminated that step without issues.

I do get some dandruff in my beard now that is controlled with mild dandruff shampoo (Head and Shoulders)

Hey man, I had this exact same problem and it was 90% of the reason why I shaved my head for the first time.

First of all, don't use exfoliants or anti dandruff shampoos. I promise you it will not make it better.

I have the perfect solution for you:

Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap

Go find it at a local health foods store or order it off amazon in bulk for cheaper.

It's the greatest soap on earth and it's been around for around 100 years. Completely natural and it's vegetable oil based. Pine Tar is proven by thousands of testimonials and my own personal experience to heal a s*** load of skin conditions, especially dandruff. It seriously saved my social life and I use it for my head face and body and it keeps pimples away along with dandruff and dry skin.

Use pure jojoba oil on your scalp after you get out of the shower and it will go away very fast. Just be patient. Also, don't wash your scalp more than once a day. In fact, I highly recommend that on the day you washed and shaved your scalp, you wait 2-3 days to wash or shave it again. Just apply jojoba oil to moisturize every morning when you wake up on the days you don't wash it. Jojoba oil balances the sebum production so your skin doesn't produce too much or too little oil while also keeping your pores unclogged.

Take my advice and you'll heal up in no time dude. Peace.

Glad I could help. You won't regret it.

Use an anti dandruff shampoo such as head and shoulders, and possibly try a different lotion. If you're omitting lotion that could be the cause of the flaking.
