Antidandruff shampoos are usually the mainstay of most treatments for dandruff. When used consistently for a month or two, they help clear dandruff.
In case of dandruff with severe hair fall, you may require additional treatment. While dandruff is one cause of increased hair fall, there are many other reasons as well.
Nutritional deficiencies are a common cause of slow hair growth. Multivitamin supplements, especially those containing biotin, are recommended in these cases. Most of these supplements can be safely taken for up to three months.
Hair serums serve a dual purpose. Sometimes, anti-dandruff shampoos make the hair dry. This makes it more prone to breakage while combing. In such cases, serums help in detangling the hair. A hair serum may also have ingredients to slow down hair fall.
Products for hair fall control need to be used for several months to see the effect. They can be used at the same time.
