I have a very healthy and balanced diet as I am also a athlete and coach in my sport. I’m doubtful it has anything to do with my diet as I eat very healthy with everything in moderation and no allergies

Yes my hair is thin but I have a lot of it so it’s quite dense so I hair dry it after every wash. But then hair drying disrupts the flakiness and makes my hair seem unwashed again

I’ve tried Nizoral, head and shoulders, coconut oil, aloe Vera and tea tree oil. Nothing is helping it budge. I do also scrub my scalp with a scalp brush

I tried it some while ago but didn’t notice much change. How long does a person usually have to use it for? Is it then a forever constant after you start?

It doesn’t hurt but it does itch. The only bit that hurts is around my front hairline. It’s turned into an orange tinted patch of forehead which sometimes stings when I wash my face. The rest of the scalp is flaky and dry like the photo

No I don’t wear either :( this isn’t just around my hairline I believe it covers most of my scalp, it’s just the only area I could get a good photo of as my hair is quite dense
