Clear Anti-Dandruff Hair Fall Defense Shampoo

Upon the prodding of Kuya Andrew I decided to try out Unilever's Clear Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. For good measure, I bought the Hair Fall Defense variant. Yes, I {used to} have dandruff, and my hair strands apparently don't like my scalp very much. The good news? The shampoo works. It significantly lessened my dandruff to almost none. I have tried other anti-dandruff shampoos. Either they didn't work, or they had an unpleasant strong smell. Clear, meanwhile, has a nice scent. The bad news? It does not work much to alleviate my hair fall problem. Not much to be noticeable anyway. My hair strands still break and fall. Also it is quite expensive. A 100 mL bottle costs more than PhP50. It's cheaper than the strong anti-dandruff shampoos I've tried, but it's much more expensive than other shampoo brands that I've tried. Nonetheless, I think it's worth its price.

In paper, what I have to do seems clear and easy to pick. But the reality is... it's not. It's not as easy as it seems, not as simple as I want it to be. I keep on hoping that maybe soon enough all will be clear, that suddenly, I will decide... we will decide and stand by it no matter what, for the sake of ourselves. But that does not seem to be in the horizon. For now, everything is up in the air. Now I know what "It's complicated" truly means and it's not a good thing. It's as if our lives, what we have, our feelings are in a limbo. One wrong step and everything will fall and break. And one correct move will make everything better. It takes just one…
