“Hey! Your hair looks great!”
“Thank you! I have recently started to use this product which is really effective. Let me show you. You must try this.”
“Err…no, thanks. I don’t think I am comfortable using new things up there!”
This is my regular conversation with my girl-friends. Sometimes, I come across crazy, but I don’t think I have ever met someone who is as particular as I am when it comes to hair. There are multiple reasons for it. But the one which scared me the most is pretty funny. But you see, some childhood fears are real. I once had a dream that I am sitting at a doctor’s office for hair-transplant. And since then, I have been extra cautious with my hair.
The plethora of hair products available today in the market is enticing. And honestly, I find it very difficult to resist the beautiful hair colours or the smoothening treatments. But I do resist them because I am very proud of my hair – wavy, voluminous and naturally black. I won’t lie – I have inherited them from my mother.

Now, that’s not the only thing I have inherited from her. She has passed on her hobby of cooking which is helping me survive in a land far away from my homeland. She taught me the art of budgeting, which made me capable enough to leave my job early and pursue my passion. And finally, she taught me how to take care of my hair and skin. She is 65 and looks at least ten years younger than her actual age. She doesn’t use any anti-ageing creams and serums. And she started to colour her hair only very recently.
My mother always told me that you should refrain from changing multiple haircare products as it tends to damage your scalp. And having pretty sensitive curls, my hair reacts to the change of seasons wildly. In summers, my hair becomes oily because of the sweat and is susceptible to hair fall. My mother made sure that I washed my hair with homemade hair masks along with shampoo to remove the excess oil. And once the season starts to change, dandruff is inevitable!
There can be so many reasons for dandruff, such as dry scalp, excess sebum production, hormonal imbalances, a poor diet etc., although the underlying cause is unknown. There was a time for me when dandruff was a severe problem. And that is when I was introduced to Selsun by Abbott. It is one of the most trusted and medicated anti-dandruff in India.
#BeSelsunSure: Why Selsun Suspension?
The best thing about Selsun Suspension is that it contains 2.5% Selenium Sulfide, which is one of the best-known treatment for dandruff. However, being a medicated shampoo you have to carefully follow the directions for use, mentioned on the back of bottle for best results.
I remember for the first two weeks, I used it just twice a week to treat my dandruff. And after that, whenever dandruff occurred, I used it – hardly once or twice a month. Eventually, my use of Selsun reduced because it does not just treat dandruff but helps fight against the reappearance of dandruff as well. So, I don’t have to worry at all and I can confidently tell you to #BeSelsunSure.
Healthy tresses are all I want. I am grateful for everything that my mother has given me when it is comes to taking care of hair! I understand the struggle to keep your hair naturally healthy, so I thought of sharing my little secret with you all. What is your hair secret? Share with me in the comments below.

Like!! Great article post.Really thank you! Really Cool.
As a doc, I do know of the active ingredient in this and yes, it is definitely the best in the battle against dandruff.
Yes dandruff can occur due to so many reasons and we should always seek the main cause and eradicate it. Selsun is a good recommendation, have started using it now.
I sometimes have dandruff too but the big issue is with hair fall due to the water. I wonder if Selsun does an anti-dandruff plus hair fall shampoo in one?
Cool post! This product will surely be helpful for people with dandruff!
Great writeup, I’ll be sure to look into this product!
I recently cut my hair to start over and have been regretting it daily. Your hair looks amazing!
At least you have something that is unique and you have something to fix the concerns.
I’m SO jealous of your hair! My hair is super thin and has no body.
Perfect Hair routine!! I’m of the philosophy less is more! So glad you mother passed on to you some wonderful traits and skills!
Dandruff is really a problem for me. And now I am facing severe hairfall. Hope it finds a solution for both. Although I don’t know if the hairfall is solely for dandruff or not.
Your hair is GORGEOUS. I get my dark, wavy hair from my dad but my green eyes are totally from my mom!
