How do I get rid of Dried Shampoo Flakes??

Question

I know this might sound really gross but I wash my hair at night, and I wash it well, then I try to wash all the shampoo out and then it still dries on my head and forms flakes! Its really gross! Does any one have a soulution that I can find in the house?

Answer 1

Do yourself a favor and invest in your hair!
Most of the shampoos you buy in the store have wax in them as a filler and will make a build up which can turn into flakes.
Go to the salon and get a clarifying treatment about once a month or every other month. Get some good shampoo (a good one to start on is Matrix Biolage) which may seem expensive, but all professional shampoos can be diluted 1/2 distilled water 1/2 product in another containter (shake REALLY well before using) and will work just as well.

Go to a dermatologist. Dandruff isn't always caused by products. In fact real dandruff is a skin condition that is notoriously persistent. What most people call dandruff is just dry scalp. Persistent dandruff can be a sign of certain deficiencies, and its simply an annoying problem. Go to a dermatologist. They'll check it out and most likely prescribe a medicating shampoo to fix the problem. Of course if you're reluctant to go to a doctor you can try store brand deep conditioning moisturizers. You could also do a home remedy. My personal favorite it 1 cup mayonnaise, 2 egg yolks, 1/2 cup olive oil. Mix and coat hair, the cover with a shower cap or grocery bag and leave on for an hour or more, then shampoo out with room temperature water and condition. But really, you should just bite the bullet and find a good dermatologist.

It's probably not dried shampoo flakes. You are probably using a cheap over the counter shampoo that has too many chemicals in it. Try changing shampoos more frequently. Better to buy really good shampoos like Redken or Paul Mitchel from your beauty shop. Those over the counter are NOT the same thing. I had a BAD case of what I thought was dandruff. My beautician suggested I try Redken. It cleared it up. Now I only use name brand from my beautician. I change from time to time but not to over the counter type.

Answer 5

Are you sure you don't have dandruff honey? If your sure it's just from dried shampoo you can wash your hair again with baking soda (arm and hammer stuff NOT baking powder) This works as a great clarifier and will strip your hair of all the unnecessary goo.

Answer 6

it could be dandruff, or maybe your shampoo. first you should try a shampoo special for dandruff. if that doesn't work than surly you know that it's the shampoo lol. here are some really great cheap one that i used to use:
suave $2
Aussie $2
vo5 $1

the ones on the pricier side (but totally worth it sometimes) are:
pantene $4
treseme $3
herbal essenses $3
the ones that are on the pricier

Hope that helps and good luck!

When you rinse your hair, put some vinegar in the rinse water. I know this sounds gross, but I promise that your hair will not stink. Vinegar is a natural astringent. I have used it for years and I rinse my hair once a week to get out the styling products. You will be pleasantly surprised how clean and refreshed your hair will be.

Answer 8

use a different shampoo. i rmemeber because i once had that and i hated it because i would honestly try to get like all of the shampoo out. but it was the shampoo because when i started using a different shampoo and it went away. and don't like pick a them because it just makes it worse. alot worse. it becomes more flakier

Answer 9

it's probably dandruff
u should use the pantene anti dandruff
it really helps
also use the pantene ice shine conditioner to smooth out your hair
another reason could probably be that u don't wash your hair everyday
