Can dandruff shampoos like Selsun Blue/ Denorex cause hairloss?

I used to have very flaky hair so I used Denorex and it worked.. Used it for several years, no problem but I had to switch to selsun blue (because for a while denorex wasn't in any store around me for some reason), lately I've noticed I'm losing amounts of hair out of the norm, even my mother said it's a little bit more than what she thinks would be normal.. I plan to see a doctor, but I'm curious if this has to do with the shampoo, or perhaps stress(I've been in and out of court for the past year, and I lost my job) I've been working out more and I've always ate right.. I've dropped down 20 pounds in the past 3 or so months..





I should also mention the most comes out when I'm washing my hair.. I've never noticed this much before.. Not even a month ago..





I'm a 22 year old male with long thicker hair.. Very few men in my family are bald too..





So, shampoo, stress, diet? Or maybe all..Can dandruff shampoos like Selsun Blue/ Denorex cause hairloss?
yes, shampoo, stress and diet.





stress and losing large amounts of weight always cause more hair to fall out.





also check to make sure u are not allergic to anything in the shampoo, this happens a lot and people don't even realize it.





if ur not flaky anymore, don't use it. use a regular shampoo and when u do get flaky start to use the dandruff one again.





check to make sure u r not allergic to anythign in the shampoo, like wheat, this can sometimes cause internal problems which then lead to severe dandruff or dermatitis.Can dandruff shampoos like Selsun Blue/ Denorex cause hairloss?
Im no doctor but it sounds like it stress if its not then i say diet. I use danfruff shampoo (not that brand though) and have never heard of it ever causing hair loss. Once the dandruff is under control use a gentler shampoo as it really not meant to be used constancely then if it get bad again use it then. Like you said you would go see the doctor. All the best.
I had a good friend that used ';Head and Shoulders'; fine..but switched to ';Selsun Blue'; and started noticing a big hair loss..switched back to the ';Head and Shoulders'; and their hair started growing back..he said that his barber said that it appeared the hair was broken and very dry !
I have used them all, and have psoriasis to boot, but have no hair loss. Could be an allergic reaction though, that is specific to you.
no

Difference between Selsun Blue Shampoos? ?

I'm wanting to change shampoos %26amp; conditioners


%26amp; thought I'll give Selsun Blue ago. I've been using Head %26amp; Shoulders for a long time now.





However I noticed Selsun has 3 different ranges:


Selsun Blue


Selsun Blue Naturals


Selsun Salon





Is there any difference between the 3???


Plus with dandruff can you only use shampoo? =\


Coz Selsun Blue has a lot of shampoo %26amp; zero conditioners on its own.Difference between Selsun Blue Shampoos? ?
Selsun Blue uses a selenium compound for dandruff control instead of Head 'n Shoulders' pyrithone zinc. I assume their other products have the same amount of active ingrdient (1% of the selinium compound) as the original product.


Last month I saw a Head 'n Shoulders product in a dark blue bottle that has the same active ingredient as Selsun, and the price is about 1/2 as much per ounce. At that rate you can afford a separate conditioner and get the same dandruff control of the Selsun product!

  • How long should you use dandruff shampoos like selsun blue?

    It's safe to use every day.





    BUT (and this goes for any shampoo) you might need to change shampoos every 3 or so months because your hair can get acclimated to a particular formula and it doesn't take care of the dandruff as well. So you should change to a brand with a different active ingredient. It's OK to switch back and forth between brands.How long should you use dandruff shampoos like selsun blue?
    Until your hair is completely clean of dandruff, knowing that most probably in winter most ppl have dandruff in their hairHow long should you use dandruff shampoos like selsun blue?

    Selsun Blue dandruff shampoo not working. What next?

    I recently started getting dandruff. The Selsun Blue shampoo (has 3% Salicylic Acid) I am using isn't working. It cleans out the dandruff and stops the itch but I can still tell my scalp is pretty dry and flaky. I'm am curious if the salicylic is causing my skin become extremely dry.





    My skin is pretty sensitive so I need something that isn't going to chemically irritate my skin. I was considering buying Head and Shoulders (has selenium sulfide) or maybe something with zinc pyrithione. Will more 'natural' dandruff shampoos like from Body Shop/Kiehl's be less harsh on my scalp? Any suggestions?Selsun Blue dandruff shampoo not working. What next?
    Hi there,





    Selsun blue not working? that is a little strange but try the following, it is a natural approah to dandruff and dry scalp:





    What you need:





    1. The NATURAL Tea Tree Oil





    2. Motions dandruff shampoo





    3. Any Herbal anti-dandruff shampoo





    4. The Natural Vitamin E Oil





    This is what to do;





    1. Rub the Tea Tree Oil in your head(all over where the dandruff is)





    2. Leave it in for 10-15 minutes





    3. Wet the hair





    4. Wash the hair with any anti Herbal dandruff shampoo, about 3 times.





    4. Wash out the shampoo and dry the hair.





    5. After you have dried the hair grease it with Vitamin E Oil all over.





    Doing this for atleast 2 times a week will help you.





    Try it it works!





    =]Selsun Blue dandruff shampoo not working. What next?
    Plain old Tar Gel shampoo (T-Gel or similar generic) will generally work well.





    If you want to try a more natural route, Tea Tree Oil works very well. You can either apply it directly to your scalp before you wash your hair or buy shampoo with tea tree oil in it. I have found that direct application works better but it does burn a bit sometimes - though the irritation will go away.
    Hi, i have had a similar problem with dandruff. I tried using Head and Shoulders originally and it made the dandruff worse so I switched to the cheapo Walmart anti-dandruff shampoo and it worked for me. My advice is to try the H%26amp;S, it may work. Try different brands, as not all anti-dandruff


    shampoos are the same. Good luck.

    Which is the good anti dandruff shampoo? nizoral or selsun blue?

    Seriously, Neutrogena T-Gel is the best ever. GO with that.Which is the good anti dandruff shampoo? nizoral or selsun blue?
    you should try head and shoulders but if its gotta be one of these i'd say selsun blueWhich is the good anti dandruff shampoo? nizoral or selsun blue?
    Nizoral is a very nice shampoo. Thick, smooth and creamy and leaves your hair nice! Smells pretty good too. Just finished off a bottle!
    Nizoral is the best, but I thought the AD was prescrip. only. Also very expensive.





    I use selsun on a weekly basis.
    Try head and shoulders. It moisturizes really well.
    i know the answer to this, i myself, have dandruff... and Senson Blue makes it look like dandruff doesn't even exist.





    You know what they say... Never where Black without the Blue... Senson Blue ;)

    Does dandruff shampoo + conditioner really work? if so, head and shoulders or selsun blue?

    I used to use that but after a while it stopped working. Selsun blue is very good for that soothing menthol feeling and is better than Head and Shoulders.


    If you have really bad dandruff and want to stop it cold, use T-Gel and/or Nizoral. Both of those products have literally cured me of serious dandruff.Does dandruff shampoo + conditioner really work? if so, head and shoulders or selsun blue?
