Dealing with Scalp Folliculitis? Watch immediately!

- 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 RUclips 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.

I having scalp folliculitis from more than 4 years how I can get rid of this?.. I have already visited you website but unable to reach through website..so can you please help regarding this scalp folliculitis?
Had to take meds that were incredibly strong which did cause a ton of hair loss. Not bald but lot of hair loss & damage. Can being diabetic also be a contributing factor?
I died my hair was allergic and now I have been suffering for 7 years now
please reply. i have scalp folliculitis from hair pulling disorder, but stopped 4+ months ago. causing inflamed roots. i made worse from oils, apple cider weeks ago.. but stopped! i'm doing a lot of the things you mentioned, but advice? i'd pay if you know something to help that bad... my hair used to be full & long. i'm male, if matters. thanks.
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.
I have learned so much from listening to your video; also I when i am multi-tasking .
I am 84 years old and broke my hip. I now have a PA who visits monthly trying to control my thyroid, which was normal before but changed from all the antibiotics and other drugs that I was given while in the hospital and physical rehabilitation. She increased my thyroid this am and reviewed the antibiotics they gave me in the hospital including physical rehab too. i am finally back to fighting these medical issues and WILL NOT QUIT. Tnank you again and God Bless You in helping others.
This is the best video ive seen so far
Thank you for all the information, no doctor has broke it down or diagnosed this issue the way you have I 🙌🙌🙌you. Thank you letting us know if we have questions where to get in touch with you. I wish you worked in AL.
I learned so much from you!! I never knew about the oil making matters worse! I have an appointment with my dermatologist soon and I’m hoping she can help me without making my hair fall out more. Thanks so much ❤🙏🏽
Finally some great information that is really helpful thank you so much❤
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.
What is ccca?

Glad I came across your podcast
Thank you for this information. I needed to hear this..I went to the doctor today also I asked about my hair.
Hi my name is Jeanette and I'm experiencing pimples on my scalp and itchiness. I was searching on Utube for information on scalp itchiness and pimples. You video popped up and I became interested. You giving me information about scalp Folliculitis I never knew of. Wow! Am stunned I have this the symptoms you describe on the video. I haven't seek a professional because I have no insurance but I will try the advised treatment you given. I wish I can get the appropriate help from a professional to really diagnose my condition and my concerns.
I want too Thank You for the information you provided.
Sincerely,

I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy! Irritating and constantly plays on your mind. The best thing I’ve used to calm things has been the Moo Goo (Scalp Cream)
I have hair thinning like crazy in the middle of my hair and years of I guess what you said is inflammation on and off. My dermo (2 different visits) suggested minoxidil. That's it. Which I haven't bought yet. So basically I'm back to doing this on my own and consulting professional like yourself online. Thanks for sharing!
Look up CCCA. This is a big condition in black hair
I, too, was told the same thing. I have not purchased minoxidil. I just wash my hair often. Also, I just try to keep my hair moist.
Same here told to use minoxidil three times a week some improves i had to change my diet too
Good information here. I've been dealing with this for over a year now. I've tried all the medicated shampoos both OTC and prescription. I've been to 2 different dermatologists. Went last week and now we're trying red light and ivermectin lotion in case it is Pityrosporum (Malassezia) folliculitis. It's exhausting and expensive to try to remedy this. I've spent $1K so far. :(
very nicely explained ! thank you doctor
Thanks dr Ross great information.. I will stop the oils preferably coconut. However I do use organic castor oil on the pimple. Also silver sol. It heals really fast. Also will shampoo more often. I’m in my very early 70s.. I want to keep my hair nice & healthy. Thanks again dr. Great information.
Wow I thank you for making this video. I’ve been having folliculitis scalp for three years and here in Arkansas and have been so unsuccessful to treat this

Very helpful Dr. Nina. I have the itching and bumps and scabs from it. My hair stylist says my hair is very healthy. I doesn't feel like it to me. I might like to see what the cocktails that you would prescribe would entail.

Great video - and I agree I need to modify my diet...which I think is affecting my dry scalp. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the advice. ❤
You forgot the most important point...
That it is hereditary and chronic in many people and maybe linked to psoriasis as well...becAuse my mom inherited psoriasis from her parents and then she gave it to me and my sister...we both have chronic scalp folliculitis...surely there can be triggering things but for things to trigger...the bacteria is already living inside and doesnt want to go permanently..
YES SHE FORGOT IT IS VERY MUCH GENETIC!!!
Your video was very informative thank you. Can folliculitis cause a smelly scalp?
Do you also treat or consult on hidradenitis suppurativa? A lot of your advice sounds beneficial for someone who is learning to promote healing from that.
I first noticed problems with my scalp when Sally's suddenly removed Wild Growth hair oil from the shelves without any notice in 2018!
Hi I'm having same side effects you mentioned. I came from hair transplant. I got my hair transplant 7 months ago. 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.

Respect for 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.
Whole family got it
I tend to pull out the hairs in the sores...it feels good.
Tea Tree Oil stinks but it works, I purchase mine in the pharmacy . I put it in my conditioner and shampoo. My scalp is heather than it's been in years
Super helpful. Thank ❤you
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

I recently saw my dermatologist about my hair folliculitis, mine only started after my first dosage of oratane. I never had it before so far the only thing ive found that works is doxycycline or benzoyl peroxide wash in my scalp.
I've also tried reducing sugars and increasing water intake but the moment i stop or slow down on the benzoyl peroxide it comes back.
Ive also tried a variety of skincare vitamins. Im kinda at a loss of what else to try cause im sick of trying to maintain it and wanting to find a more long term fix.

I put hydrocortisone on my scalp, I thought I had traction alopecia, or maybe I did, however it grew back once it was healed, and it healed quick like in a week.
My son has folliculitis and I make a thin paste with water and colloidal oatmeal and apply it to the affected area. It reduces the swelling and the pain from the sores/bumps on his head. I also disinfect his hair brush often. For the itching I spray hydrogen peroxide on his scalp. Hope this helps someone.
It was very helpful

I used to get it a lot until I went natural (stopped the relaxers), washed my hair more often (I used to wait MONTHS to wash it) and decreased my use of oil on my scalp.
How about braiding your hair? Are you able to do that? With extensions and without
@@Wtf_tinaaYep.
I think mines came after a relax
Did your hairl get loss
What are Relaxers?
Low vitamin C ( which is very common as less citrus and fresh veg is being eaten ) , can cause this too and as this lovely lady says it may be a symptom of another health problem such as an autoimmune condition that is hindering nutrient absorption .Vitamin C is responsible for healthy connective tissue and collage protection . Do not confuse with Follicular Hyperkeratosis , Psoriasis or Sebhorreic Dermatitis which is spread across the scalp , folliculitis is actually the hair follicle that is infected and presents with a yellow head .
If take high amounts of vitamin c we can cured from folliculities?
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?

I have always been the guy with the clean fade. I got it when i switched my barber😢
Many times if a barber is not consistent with cleaning and sterilizing their tools they can have a lot of bacteria build up that they are transferring to their clients by using these unclean tools.

Folliculitis is a very difficult condition to deal with. Many times topical products won't work because there are internal factors contributing to your outbreaks and inflammation.

My daughter is dealing with it now
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
That’s great
@@sammiek6467THIS IS BRILL 💯👏🏿 Thanks for sharing ❤
I agree!! You have to listen to your scalp!
If anyone trys the method I used and shared please if you don't mind give some feedback on it be a good result or a bad result we are all here trying to deal with the issue so I am thinking if anyone gets a good result then someone else who is feeling defeated by this thing they then might see some of us used the same method and it give someone hope and hopefully they will have good results y'all kinda like pay it forward. For me it was starting to mess with my woman hood ya know and if it is another failed attempt say that information is key when dealing with this thing. And good luck to everyone I hope and pray for healing and your beautiful hair returns to you soon.
You say it never goes away - does that mean everyone have dormant folliculitis, or is it just that when you get it.. you're screwed for the rest of the life? I've been dealing with this for 10 years, been through multple dermatologists that never helped, all the topical treatments, antibiotics, even accutane. I changed my diet completely, made sure to stay healthy. And I STILL have it - do I just need to accept that I'll forever be tortured by this?
Hi, so it can become dormant with proper treatment and diet routines. There may be different factors that can trigger inflammation and irritation again even after it has been calmed so that is why continuous care is needed if you suffer from Folliculitis.
I relate 100 percent. I was a hairstylist and this destroyed my career, personal life and I have to wear head covering all the time because of bald patches now and my hair is broken off and brittle. I’ve been to dermatologist 3 times and nothing helps. I feel you’re pain
@@staceydigre3657 I'm so sorry you deal with this horrible illness as well. The level of confidence it takes away. I can't remember the last time I brushed my hand through my hair and didn't feel pain.

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._

Hello Dr. Ross. I don't think I have Folliculitis but there is some type of fungal on my scalp. Along my hair line my scalp gets patches, and they bleed very lightly when I shampoo my hair to remove the patches. I also have very dry patches throughout my hair that itches really bad. I stop relaxing my hair and I've been natural for about 2 years and I really need some help. I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun and no relief thus far. I'm so over this!!

So did you find out what it was ? I have the same condition
I have this and when i approached dermitologist they were notveducated so i had to go through trial and error and alot of research. Tea tree oil is helpful and so it perscribed "Derma smooth" the scalp needs to be free from heavy oils (only light oils) at least every 3 days. I lost hair and have patches on my head . Ive been trying to grow ot back for 8 years now. If anyone have any suggestion please feel free to share. Also the rest of my hair grows i just make sure i get my trims and keep it moisturized.

@NinaRossAtl thank you I appreciate that. I don't really get information as much and when I do I know what to do my main focus is more growing back my hair. Folliculitis have like some patches on my scalp where I lost hair and it hasn't grown back. I've been working on trying to find ways of growing back my hair again
Light application of cinnamon essential oil for a few days - it's an antifungal - light because it's very strong. Will look worse for a few days, then when all is clear, try castor oil for regrowth. Oreganol brand oregano oil is also antifungal.
@@kmaben8985 unfortunately my hair does not like castor oil it's too thick. Whenever I buy castor oil my scalp gets irritated.

Hey am from India..how to book an appointment through video calling??
What oil can I use for this condition folicuitis cause my scalp stays dry and itchy
Hi there, adding oils causes more irritation and inflammation, so I never recommend putting it on your scalp when you have Folliculitis. You do not want to create any kind of build up on the scalp. I would definitely recommend keeping the scalp as clean and clear as possible. If you would like some personal recommendations for your current experiences with Folliculitis I would love to assist you. Here's the link to book an evaluation with me. ninaross.as.me/virtualconsult
Stress destroys gut balance…the skin is only extension of the gut…destress. Be true to self to rebalance your life. Use probiotic and anti inflammatory life style …this all helps to heal from inside out
I think I have folliculitis because I get bumps all over mainly in the back and on the side they are so irritated I take a knife just to relieve the pressure and cut it then use rubbing alcohol to try to clean it they gave me antibacterial shampoo at the dermatologist should I keep using it our what are the methods can I useA lot of times these bumps hurt
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. It's very difficult to deal with and not everyone experiences are the same. Here's the link to book a virtual evaluation with me for assistance. ninaross.as.me/virtualconsult

My daughter has been suffering from this since she was 3 years old idk how she got it and I’m desperately finding a way to help her she’s always in pain and I just feel bad can this thing be cured
Don’t lose hope, you’ll eventually find something that’ll help. I’ve been suffering from this for 7 years and no antibiotic or topical has worked for me, but I’ve been using rosemary hair essential oil and it soothes the red bumps. Its not a cure but it certainly provides relief
