Hi. Not long after I turned 40 my hair completely changed. 4 years on still having problems My hair is like straw, brittle and frizzy I also suffer from burning and itchy scalp. Doc keep prescribing medication that my hairdresser tells me not to use as my hair is too dry. Many thanks Lorraine
Hi...Thanks for considering Ask a doctor service... I understand your worries... I advise you to use Aloe vera shampoo with C.Vitamin E mix with your shampoo this will surely help to moisturize your dry scalp and reduce hair fall... If still symptoms persist then switch over you Minoxidil shampoo for 3 months and consult a dermatologist for further management Hope your doubts are cleared Take care
