I heard this term from my 14-year-old daughter so I hope I'm using it right hahaha. What's the shampoo you use that's affordable and really works wonders? Like for dandruff and thinning hair combined? Thanks.
 
There are lot of affordable shampoo options out there and everyone works different for different hair type. First, you need to go to the dermatologist to get a diagnosis for the dandruff, and you might need medical shampoo for that. For me personally Head&shoulders works wonders for dandruff, but i don't have it all the time only occasionally and it goes away with h&s shampoo. You can try that one but if you have constant issues with dandruff i would first suggest you go to a dermatologist and see what's causing it.
 
If you're dealing with dandruff and thinning hair, I've got a couple of great budget-friendly options for you: Nizoral, which contains ketoconazole to tackle dandruff and might also help with thinning, and OGX Biotin & Collagen, which really boosts volume and thickness. If your scalp is on the sensitive side, Dove DermaCare is a nice gentle choice.

Have you or your daughter given any of these a shot? What's her hair type?
