I usually have dandruff in the winter, but the past few months, it's been worst. It seems to really have gotten out of control the past month or so. My beautician usually treat my scalp with a 'dry and itchy" conditioner and shampoo. I m really concerned thinkiing it might be more than dandruff. Could it be a fungus? If so what can I do about it, who can treat it?

The best home remedy for dandruff is to apply lemon juice on your head and leave it for 20 minutes ,then wash your head with normal shampoo.Do it alternate days and watch out for 20 days more if not cured then better see skin specialist.

Hey it could be psorasis in the scalp but I wouldn't freak out just yet. Alot of people have much worse dandruff in the winter than in the summer time. Check out www.womenshelp.net. Their home page has some great links to awesome products that really help alot. I just bought emu shampoo and it seems to be working great. It does state that it is for psoarasis but it is known to help dandruff as well check it out.
Good Luck

Look it sounds like psoriasis, I have it and it really s*cks. Ive had it since I was 12 and it gets horrible in the winter. The only thing my numerous doctors have told me to use is call T-Gel Shampoo. Its made with Tar, and man does it help when used regularly. A couple of companies make it, but you can ask your pharmacist, if you can't find it. Sorry about that... Good Luck.
