Dear Krissy. Borax saturated water is my favorite. About 2/3 cup of Borax to a gallon of water. Let disolve when you see the grains mostly gone the water is saturated or has taken up the borax. I add de chlorinator from the fish or aquarium supply sometimes called conditioner a few drops as it further improves condition. Here is Ted's chapter of hair remedies. I suggest you read them all. It is quick and gives a bigger picture.

Hi Krissy,
I am trying to find some information from New Zealand or Australia that could be different from what you have tried so far. Did you stick with these treatments for long enough to give them a chance to be effective? The longer you have a condition - the longer it will take to gain relief. I was wondering about Tea Tree products from "Down Under"(Thursday Plantation brand).Tea Tree Oils are very effective treatments for some persistent conditions. Aborigines used them in Australia.
Not so natural would be Selenium Sulfide lotion at 1% OR "Elcon lotion (..mometasone furoate 1mg). You had better get advice on these, as to whether (or not) they would be appropriate for your condition. They are typically used for severe dandruff sufferers and those with "angry"red patches on their scalps.Follow the directions closely.
These are external treatments only. A lot of work might need to be done internally also of course.
Best of luck and I will keep looking.
Let us know how you get along.
P.S. I have found an Emu Oil Shampoo product in New Zealand that might be new on the market. I hope you can investigate it further on the web. Search for "Emu Oil in New Zealand" and you should locate it.
Good luck.

Krissy, Has any of the remedies worked; I have the same problem but I have no idea what caused it? Did you try the bentonite clay & Vaseline? Thanks, Heather
