Aleppo soap finally resolved it for me after years of fighting the yo-yo effects of medicated shampoos. It's just an old hard Castile soap made using olive and laurel tree oils. Laurel tee oil is apparently pretty good for skin, and works fine to clean your hair.
I don't go in for woo, but it is kinda fun to be using a soap recipe that goes back a couple thousand years. Mileage may vary of course, but I've found it to work extremely well, and as a bonus has a pleasantly neutral smell—herbal as you might expect. 20% or so blends of laurel tree oil seem to do the trick.
like a bar of soap ?
Yeah it's a bar soap, commonly used for both skin and hair.
