It’s Snowing In Scalp-Land
Last week, I decided to come off the pill and oh joy, my dandruff is back. It seems to have been under control these last few months, but over the last few days I’ve had the classic itchy scalp and flakes again. My apple cider vinegar and andiroba oil pre-rinse is preventing all-out disaster, but I may have to do a post-rinse as well.
Of course, it could be the sudden turn in the weather that’s doing it (boy is it nippy!), or the fact that most solutions I find stop working after a while. Looking back at my diary, I see that I used the vinegar with ylang-ylang to good effect earlier in the year, so perhaps I will switch back to that and see how it goes.
I’m off to the doctor later today to see about this rash on my face. While it sometimes calms down overnight, it’s just not going away. I intend to continue using natural products to treat it (the hydrocortisone wasn’t enough anyway), but I would like to get the doctor’s opinion on what it actually it.
Or maybe it’s caused by by spider bites. OK, I’m kidding, but I woke up to find one crawling up my neck last night. Have I ever mentioned that I hate spiders?
