I still haven’t got rid of my dandruff (Please Help)

[Jesus_ist_König]

Did a 19 day no shampoo journey = stronger hair, a lot more itchy scalp, not really less dandruff

Today I was getting reading and in my hair was a shit ton of white stuff

This is what my dandruff looks like on a t shirt

Spoiler

There also was a big fat chunk in my hair

This is what it looks like after scratching the area

Now here is the thing, I don’t know what is wrong with my scalp. The tiny white flakes are obviously a sign of a dry scalp and dry skin, yet the big flakes are a sign of fungus dandruff. The problem here is that I don’t know what I have?

Dry scalp + Fungus = Ketozcone (I think that’s the name) will attack the fungus yet dry out my scalp even more

Dry scalp = give it more oils to make the dryness go away (doesn’t really work great since then my hair is full of olive oil for example and I need to use a shampoo to make the oil go away from the hair which isn’t good for the hair on a regular basis)

Only fungus = I don’t think so cuz then I wouldn’t be getting these tiny white flakes?

Another thing I want to add is that my scalp gets even more itchy when I’m sweating or doing a sport but if that’s normal. My scalp looks like it has a second white layer

I don’t know how to solve this

so yall think i have the Malassezia dandruff?

Did you get a ketoconazole shampoo and try it yet? The other shampoo you showed me isn't on the same level.

I really think you have a fungal problem so fix that first.
Whatever dryness you get after that can be managed.

@Kara is right, try keto shampoo first. if that doesnt clear it, then we can look at other issues. but fungal is the most likely explanation here.

try figuring out how often your hair can handle washing and ffs don‘t put olive oil on your scalp

Olive oil is basically just an occlusive, its a 2 out of 5 on the comedogenic scale so you might clog your pores. Also it feeds yeast/fungal issues because of the oleic acid

Now it makes sense
