  • There are few things as embarrassing as having a scalp problem and it being visible. Who knows how many people have written off Scalp Folliculitis as simple "Dandruff," and ignored it for years, or have suffered from it in silence.
    I've decided to create a UA-cam video on this topic because so many people have written to me over the years about this issue, willing to try anything to get rid of it, but not knowing where to start.
    It might seem trivial, but I think that Scalp Folliculitis is something that we should all be aware of, for our own sake, as well as the sake of others who may also have this issue!
    I run a Hair Clinic named Nina Ross Hair Therapy where we treat all kinds of hair problems, including thinning hair and hair loss. We also offer Advanced Treatments like Mesotherapy, PRP, medical grade nutrition, supplements and lifestyle advice to help you achieve a healthy head of hair.
    You can get in touch with me at my website: www.ninaross.co.
    If you'd like to speak with me about your situation: Book an evaluation (Atlanta): ninaross.as.me...

    If you find this info helpful, feel free to share it with a friend or family member who might be struggling with hair loss. If you have any questions about the methods I mention in this video and how they can benefit you, feel free to comment below or DM me on IG @ninarossatl!

    What i got from this was its due to eating to much inflammatory foods. Sugar inpaticular for myself. Ever since i limited my water intake the last few days and have been eating alot of sugar my head has been on fire. Like literally. I found ot interesting how she said your blood flow went thru your hair shaft and ultimately your scalp. Just like your immune system is in your stomach. Meaning depression, anxiety, not eating healthy. Eating lots of gkuten and sugar and under extreme stress causes my inflammation in my body to become severe. My system is very very sensitive. As soon as i eat something my body is having some sort of immune reaction. I used to hate my sensitive system. However, i apprexiate ir now as it tells me where im being unhealthy and what foods amd environments to avoid. Its like i new this already. Yet it is now showing me that i need to leave the environment im in asap. So i fel like posting this in hopes that i help someone else out.

    Thank you for this information. Like someone else posted, I had gone to TWO different dermatologists, and neither of them talked about inflammation or folliculitis. Just automatically said I had ccca. I could actually see where I had bumps and my scalp was dusky looking around my hairline and in center. They never addressed it. I stopped going. I love how you talked about there may be multiple conditions. Definitely agree about the triggers, when I get flair-up I immediately start trying to figure out what I changed that may have caused it. My latest was yogurt. I was eating a lot of it because I thought it was healthy. When I stopped, I noticed a difference in inflammation and the bumps on my hairline. I'm in my late 50's and 9 years post-menopausal, so I am very realistic about what I can and cannot expect. If I can keep the hair I have, reduce thinning, and get some regrowth in the areas where I lost hair, I will be happy. Please keep sharing.

    Folliculitis is hard to get rid of. I went to the emergency room twice they treated it as a fungal the dermatologist confirmed it was bacterial. The medicine used also treats chlamydia. doxycycline pills, fluocinonide ointment for the scalp and Keflexin shampoo. it went away for years, but will reappear. If my hair is pulled too tight or an infected comb is used by a stylist. i’ve heard it’s not contagious, but I think it is.

    I am 19 years old and have been suffering from folliculitis for 5 or 6 years now. I have no idea how I got it, since I follow an almost perfect diet together with a nutritionist, I usually wash my hair 2 or 3 times a week, and in general I have perfect hygiene. There are times when it completely disappears and they are some of the happiest times of my life. While there are other times, like these days, where it's freaking me out so bad. I've tried various therapies with various dermatologists, and they only work during the therapy period, once it's finished, everything goes back to the way it was. These days I can't even lay my head on the pillow without feeling pain and I haven't been able to sleep for two nights. I really don't know how to do it

    Shampoo causes dryness, severe itching every time I use it, no matter how paraben free, etc. I stop shampooing, and my scalp got better and stopped itching. I use conditioner to wash my hair and then oil my scalp, every other day and that makes a big difference for me. You have to listen to your scalp. It will tell you what it likes or dislikes.

      True that I swear I wanted to kill the germ that gave it life so I STARTED doing this get my hair wet to wash hot water then I started taking a bar of dial antibacterial soap and I literally used it for 1st shampoo when showering anyway once my hair was very well soaped up I left in my head for 7 to 10 minutes before rinsing out so I kill any bacteria before washing with shampoo and condition my hair For 20 to 25 minutes before rinsing cuz lord knows I needed moisture in my hair I came up with the dial soap idea after I had a surgery scheduled and my doctor told me to be there at 5am and to take a dial soap bath before I come and that surgery would start at 7am so I thought if the surgeons main requirement is to take a dial soap bath before surgery dial soap surely can help me with my hair and yes washing every other day by starting with open hair strands and follicles then depositing dial bar soap letting it do it's job for 10 minutes then shampoo rinse condition my follicles don't have bad germs causing inflammation so they don't flare up or crust up on the surface my new hair is able to actually pass threw the scalp and I suddenly notice the stubble and it's still growing

I don't know when I started experiencing scabs or crusts that comes out with pieces of hair, but I do remember heavily using essential oils like Rosemary, coconut oil, Castro oil. The scabs or crust become white and visible when I finish showering. When my scalp gets dry the crust or scab is less visible. I have a habit of removing them from my scalp and when I do pieces of hair come with it.

    High blood sugar levels, often associated with diabetes, can indeed impact the body's susceptibility to various infections, including skin conditions such as folliculitis. Folliculitis is the inflammation of hair follicles, which can be caused by a bacterial, fungal, or viral infection. Individuals with high blood sugar levels may have a compromised immune system, making it harder for their body to fight off infections, thus potentially increasing the risk of developing conditions like folliculitis.
    How High Blood Sugar Affects Folliculitis
    - **Immune System Impairment**: High blood sugar can impair the immune system, reducing the body's ability to fight off infections.
    - **Skin Conditions**: Diabetes can cause changes in the skin, making it more susceptible to infections due to altered blood flow and nerve function.
    - **Bacterial Growth**: High levels of glucose in the body can promote the growth of bacteria, providing a conducive environment for infections like folliculitis.
    Hydration and Mineral Water
    Hydration is vital for overall health and can indirectly support the management of high blood sugar levels and skin health. While staying well-hydrated is beneficial, it's important to understand its role in the context of managing blood sugar levels and folliculitis:
    - Blood Sugar Management: Proper hydration can help in diluting the blood sugar in the bloodstream to some extent and promote kidney function, which aids in excreting excess glucose through urine. However, hydration alone cannot significantly reduce high blood sugar levels; it should be part of a comprehensive management plan including diet, exercise, and medication as prescribed by a healthcare provider.
    -Skin Health: Adequate hydration can improve skin health by maintaining its elasticity and barrier function, potentially reducing the susceptibility to infections like folliculitis. Mineral water, specifically, can provide essential minerals that might support skin health, although its direct impact on blood sugar levels and folliculitis is not well-established.
    ### Vitamins and Minerals for Blood Sugar and Folliculitis
    Several vitamins and minerals can influence blood sugar control and skin health, potentially impacting conditions like folliculitis:
    - **Chromium**: This mineral is known to enhance the action of insulin, which can help in improving blood sugar control.
    - **Magnesium**: Low levels of magnesium have been linked to insulin resistance, a condition often preceding type 2 diabetes.
    - **Vitamin D**: Adequate levels of Vitamin D are important for insulin production and sensitivity. Additionally, Vitamin D has been shown to play a role in skin health and may support the immune system's ability to fight off infections.
    - **Zinc**: Zinc plays a vital role in wound healing and immune function, which could be beneficial in managing skin infections like folliculitis. It also has a role in insulin action.
    While these vitamins and minerals can support overall health, including blood sugar management and potentially reducing the risk of conditions like folliculitis, it's crucial to approach their use with balance. Excessive intake of certain nutrients can have adverse effects. It's best to aim for a well-rounded diet or use supplements under the guidance of a healthcare provider, especially when managing chronic conditions like diabetes.
    _In summary, while hydration (including mineral water) can support overall health, managing high blood sugar levels and conditions like folliculitis requires a comprehensive approach that includes dietary management, regular exercise, adequate hydration, and possibly medication. Consulting with healthcare professionals is essential for tailored advice and effective management of these conditions._

    Thank you. Your video was informative. I was diagnosed with Lichen Planus of the scalp as the cause of my itchy scalp & hair loss in my 40' s but Im wondering now that Im 59 if the thinning parts of my hair are hormonal. The dermatologist I use to see was African American but she moved our of state and I live in a predominantly Caucasian area so I don't have access to anyone that I feel that would understand my hair. Any suggestions?

    • @NinaRossAtl

      Hi, I would recommend using the shampoo because it will assist with alleviating the irritation and removing the bacteria from your scalp. I would also suggest not cutting the bumps open anymore because that along with the dryness from the alcohol can contribute to scarring on the scalp. Try cleaning your scalp with Witch Hazel a few times throughout the day. As well as shampooing twice a week with 3 applications of the shampoo per wash. If you are in need of extra assistance to find out what is causing your folliculitis and how to treat it both internally and externally I would love to assist you.
