Thanks for reaching out. There's so many things that I've done for my hair. In the beginning I've soaked by scalp and head in borax and apple cider vinegar. This get a lot of the stuff that purged and got stuck in your hair out. I did this a few times a week, and then I'd immediately wash it, and while I condiditoned it, I'd comb through my hair with a very strong fine tooth comb. While I don't soak my hair as much... I do still comb it out with a fine tooth comb. This really does help get out the fibers, odd white hairs and fungal hairs out.
As per treating the scalp. I've used everything from coconut oil/olive oil with a few drops of tea tree in, to vick's vabor rub... This stuff HATES menthol. And, it really does help relieve the inflamation associated with the scalp, not to mention, he helps you breathe better in the sinus cavity.
I'd also recommend putting a few drops of essential oils into your shampoo... Mind you I haven't used all of these at the same time, but, I've used lavendar (antifungal), Eucalyptus (Anti-fungal), Peppermint (anti-fungal), Clove (anti-fungal, antil parasititc, and anti-viral). If at all possible, try to use a wee-wee bit of coconut oil in your hair. You really want to try and kill this stuff at every turn.
Hopefully, this helps you. But, I have to admit, I understand what a hassle hair can be. But, I can tell you that eventually, your hair does come back, the white hairs leave, and you will notice that it coems back better than ever! It's a matter of figuring out what works for you. And, yes, a lot of conditioner is involved, but, the combing will help rebuild your upper body strength. ;-)
Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.
Many blessings, much light.
