Back acne problems, any tips?
I've noticed throughout the years that when my hair is long, i breakout on my back with acne and blackheads. But, when my hair is short and doesn't touch my back, it's all clear. So, I know the problem is definitely my hair. But, it's not at all oily and I wash it with salon shampoo and conditioner. Should I see the dermatologist about this? any tips? PS. i love my long hair and will not cut if just for this problem.
How can I get rid of acne and blackheads that just don’t disappear?
I've had acne and blackheads for a really long time now, I think for about 3-4 years. I've tried the Clean and Clear line (I think that's what it's called) and a lot of the clearasil products. None of it is helping. I live in England, so any products you refer me to, must be obtainable in England, preferably in Boots.
Thanks,
TJ.
My hair is fairly long, I wash my hair once a day (shampoo and conditioner). My hair feels kind of unsmooth (if that's a word) when I don't condition.. Also, use soap for my hair?
Can you please help me with my severe acne!?
It's worse now than it has EVER been in my whole life. I used to complain when I had like ten pimples, but now I wish I could go back in time to have that! Many teenagers complain about having one single zit, but I would give everything to just have that! I'm in 12th grade, and I've had acne since the beginning of 7th grade. I've tried so many facial cleansers, topical treatments, and I've been to the dermatologist a numeral of times. I've been on three different acne treatments by the dermatologist so far. All of them work at first, but I guess when my face becomes 'immune' to it; it stops working.. which is about after a month or two. Right now I'm on the ointment ziana plus the pill solodyn. I've been on erythromycin-benzoyl peroxide topical gel, and tazorac cream. Yes, I've already tried the Pro-Activ and Clean&Clear system. I don't wear any make-up powder or foundation. I've changed my detergent, I wash all my blankets, changed my shampoo and conditioner, but nothing seems to help. I tried that trick of using toothpaste, alchohol, and many more! I'm desperate right now, and I refuse to use accutane because of the side effects. Please help me! :(
Here's my acne right now;

What makes matters worse is I have school tomorrow, and I go to a school where not ONE girl has acne :( Also, my dream is to become a model.. the first thing photographers and agents look at is your skin.
i DON'T THiNK iT'LL EVER GO AWAY :(

If you read the whole thing, you would've seen I already used that Clean&Clear system :( I had an allergic reaction to it that made my face swell up like a balloon!
Also, you would've read that I used Pro-Activ! Gawh; lol.. but thanks for answering people :)
