Dandruff and Mystery Hair Loss
Is Dandruff Really an Issue?
Hair loss and dandruff can be caused by environment and temperature, or by more serious issues that affect the hair follicles, such as ringworm, fungus, dermatophytes and lack of proper fats in the diet.
- If the area of hair loss is under the mane, it could be sweating and trapped heat. Hair loss due to heat and sweat is also common on the face, eyes and around the ears, often the result of a horse's aversion to having their faces washed. Sweat and dirt accumulate, which affects the health of the hair follicle and results in hair loss.
- Hair loss may also stem from rain rot induced dermatophytes, ringworm, and other fungi and microorganisms.
- In the case of dandruff, the skin becomes scaly and the coat becomes dry and flaky, often accompanied by hair loss.
How Is Dandruff & Mystery Hair Loss Treated?
- Wash area well with Equiderma Neem Shampoo and leave on for up to one hour on initial treatment.
- Follow up with Equiderma Neem Conditioner – Leave on for up to one hour also with initial treatment.
- Rinse well and dry.
- Cover area with Equiderma Skin Lotion and leave on.
- Repeat treatment with Equiderma Skin Lotion daily until hair begin to grow back. In most cases stubble can be seen in 24 hours.

Love, love, love the sales!
Love love love these sales! We go through gallons of the outdoor spray in season and every saved penny helps! Have been using this product since it came out and would not be without it. Have sensitive skinned horses and we are all about natural. Works fantastic and smells amazing. The Skin Lotion is also a must in our barn. Great for sweet itch, hock rubs, fly bites, any skin irratations. Again love the holistic approach. Highly recommend all their products. They do not dissapoint!

Equiderma Products are Great!!!
Equiderma products are great! I volunteer at a rescue and we use a lot of their products. I have recently started using them on a draft horse with CPL. it is easily yet but it seems to be getting smaller. Some of the CPL sites have recommended zinc oxide for horses with CPL. I figured what have I got to lose. I also use it for one of our drafts with pastern dermatitis. The people at Equiderma are kind and helpful. Their company cares. My review will say Maggie but she’s the horse. Maggie is very appreciative of having the Equiderma products.
We are lifelong Equiderma fans!
We use both the horse and dog products from Equiderma and love them both equally. My chocolate lab has allergies and using the barn dog shampoo has cleared up all his skin issues, we couldn't survive without it. On top of amazing products, the customer service is exceptional. We are lifelong fans of Equiderma.
