I have suffered from terrible dandruff since I was 18 and I am sure this contributed to my hair loss in my 20's.
I tried all the usual stuff and even found that Head and Shoulders and Vosene actually made my dandruff worse. When Nizoral came out, that worked for a few days at a time, but I had a terrible reaction to it.
Later I tried a stuff from Schwartzkopf Bonacure which was a dandruff lotion that you applied to your scalp and didn't wash it off, actually that was pretty good. You can see it on this site (which is awkward to use):- ( no links please)
I then started using a new hair loss product called ProFusion and found I no longer had to use the Schwartzkopf lotion because the ProFusion was sorting my dandruff as well. You can find this on:- (link removed) I found it helpful and I would imagine you could use it with Minoxidil or Propecia (although I've never tried Propecia myself).
I know that dandruff is caused by a yeast infection, so I would guess why these work is that they either have something in them which kills the yeast or creates an environment which makes it difficult for the yeast to grow.
