I’ve been dealing with dandruff since I was a kid, it’s always made me really insecure and always wear a hat. I’ve tried plenty of different hair products, none seem to work. It’s not just my hair on my scalp, it’s my beard as well. I’m a 19 year old male (Caucasian), I’ve been already deciding if I want to go bald or not. I still get dandruff even with a buzzcut and stubble. My skin just sucks. Please feel free to recommend products. I’m trying to improve my life and I find this to be one of the most annoying things.

    Try using a non-alcohol-based lotion. If you can’t find one, I’ve had good success with Eucerin. I put lotion on my face and scalp right after my shower, and don’t have any itchiness or flakes.

    I couldn’t find a shampoo that fixed anything for me.

    If you have it on your elbows or knees (very common), you can try Aquaphor at night. That is pretty sticky, but keeps your skin calm and moist.

    A dermatologist can give you some prescription lotion/cream, as well. That also works, but it’s typically a small tube and expensive.
