Been getting a lot of dandruff lately mostly on my eyebrows which is causing a lot of loss, almost every time I touch my eyebrows a hair will fall out. I've tried almost everything to get rid of it but nothing has helped. Any one ever deal with anything like this and had any success?
Strongest cure for dandruff?

You can use an anti-dandruff shampoo but a cream may be better suited for eyebrows (ketoconazole cream among others).
The active ingredients you want to look for in a shampoo or a cream are : zinc pyrithione, ciclopirox olamine, piroctone olamine, ketoconazole, salicylic acid, coal tar.
You can use shampoos or creams containing different active ingredients alternatively if one isn't enough (for example I switch between a ketoconazole shampoo, a zinc pyrithione and ciclopirox olamine shampoo and a salicylic acid shampoo).

nizoral 1% is good enough 2% is way too harsh man.
Honestly had a super bad dandruff problem and I used it twice a week for about a month and gone.
I'm not talking dry ones either, i mean the gooey/wet type of dandruff that flake THEN turns dry. After my first use about 80% of it was gone.
By the second week (after the 3rd application) completely gone. I love how my scalp feels when I use it so I use it often. But it does leave your hair feeling really dry, you counter that with a hair conditioner. Or if you just want it to not look dry and is okay with styling products, use hairwax.
