Founders Journey
45 Years Tackling Dandruff
Break the Cycle
Dandruff have been part of my life for over 45 years. Like myself, more than half of the world’s adult population deals with dandruff, yet the go-to solution has remained anti-dandruff shampoos dominated by a few major players. After decades of daily use, I decided it was time for a new approach. With the help of an Australian-based compounding pharmacy team, I developed a set of bespoke Victory Serums cosmetic products that helped reset and rebalance my scalp, addressing microbiome dysbiosis caused by severe dandruff.
This is my personal journey of “scalp discovery”, where I documented the progression of my untreated dandruff over 55 days and how I restored my scalp’s health, in just 11 days from what I believe to be the most severe dandruff and scalp imbalance I had ever experienced. By reducing my use of Victory Serums Dandruff-Control products and incorporating Victory Serums Microbiome-Friendly Conditioning Shampoo with a low pH (3.7), I not only achieved a healthier scalp but also found the physical time and mental space to explore other potential health factors, such as gut health, which may have been contributing to my severe dandruff.
Through my experiment I found that the following products, when used together, helped reset and rebalance my scalp quickly, with visible results in just three days. These products, now available in the Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Suite, provided results beyond anything I could have imagined, and include:
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Scalp Serum
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Shampoo
- Victory Serums Microbiome-Friendly Conditioning Shampoo with low pH (3.7)
The Experiment - Commenced 1st Jun 2024
To better understand the lifecycle of my dandruff, I stopped using off-the-shelf anti-dandruff products for 55 days. During this time, I documented my scalp’s condition including photos and data. It was a challenging yet enlightening process.
Eleven days after this 55-day period, I used only two products to reset my scalp:
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Scalp Serum
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Shampoo
The worst-affected areas of my scalp were the Fringe, Top Front, Front Right, Back Left, Back, Back Right and Front Left, as illustrated below.
Scalp Areas
From hundreds of photographs, I selected the best ‘before’ and ‘after’ shots to highlight the difference between the severity of my dandruff and my reset scalp microbiome. The ‘before’ images, for me, were particularly telling—demonstrating the different stages and types of dandruff I experienced. It started with an initial itch to severe dryness and flaking, followed by oiliness and finally the appearance of large oily flakes. Some of these images are from well before the 55-day mark in order to demonstrate the severity of the oiliness.
Below each series of photos, you’ll find plots detailing the evolution of my dandruff in each region and how it changed during the 55 days of non-treatment and up to 11 days post-treatment using:
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Scalp Serum and
- Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Shampoo
Within 24 hours of applying these products, I felt significant relief. By day three, the photographic evidence confirmed its effectiveness; and by Day 11, my scalp was fully reset, with no visible signs or feelings of dandruff present.
The scalp observations in the accompanying plots cover flake severity, redness, dryness and oiliness across the different scalp regions as well as overall scalp itchiness.

Experiment Notes:
1. This was not a clinical trial but rather a personal experiment conducted at home over a few months. I wanted to be transparent, offering those who suffer from severe dandruff confidence in our products by showing real results—my results—as the founder of Victory Serums and “Volunteer Zero”.
2. Photos capture the evolution of my dandruff, which started escalating around 10 days after stopping daily use of anti-dandruff shampoos. My condition worsened rapidly, reaching its peak visually a few days later, before the oiliness took over completely at around Day 30.
3. From Day 30 to Day 55, there was little visible change other than increasing oiliness and larger flakes. This period of time was the most uncomfortable, with each day becoming increasingly more unpleasant.
4. On Day 55, my first round of Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Serum and Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Shampoo arrived for testing. I had gathered enough data to identify the different stages and types of dandruff I had experienced along with severe scalp dysbiosis.
5. After 11 days of treatment, my scalp had fully reset. I had used all of Victory Serums Dandruff-Control Intensive Scalp Serum and then gradually reduced my use of Victory Serums Dandruff Control-Intensive Shampoo and incorporated Victory Serums Microbiome-Friendly Conditioning Shampoo into my routine.
Now that I found the balance that kept my dandruff at bay without requiring daily use of high-preservative anti-dandruff products, I shifted my attention to potential underlying causes such as gut health and vitamin deficiencies.
NOV 2024 UPDATE 100 DAYS OF VICTORY SERUMS
If 100 days is a standard measure of performance for newly elected leaders, it’s fitting to demonstrate Victory Serums product efficacy after 100 days of use with only 1ml of Victory Serums Dandruff Control Intensive Shampoo each week!
FEB 2025 UPDATE
After more than six months of using Victory Serums products and improving my gut health through a targeted approach—weeding out harmful bacteria, introducing beneficial microbes with a bespoke prebiotic, and feeding the good gut bacteria—the results speak for themselves.
By combining a fast-acting intensive dandruff control process, a microbiome-friendly conditioning shampoo with a low pH, and moisturising scalp serum, along with gut health optimisation, I’ve maintained my reduction in dandruff control product use at an incredible 96.7%. A truely viable solution to my severe dandruff.
JUN 2025 UPDATE
After more than a year of research, product development and testing, the Victory Serums Pathway is finally here. This comprehensive program provides a structured path to improve scalp health without relying on harsh chemicals or unnecessary preservatives being absorbed into your body. It helps you uncover the root causes behind your scalp issues and potentially other underlying health concerns as well.
