HOME REMEDIES FOR DANDRUFF

Dandruff is best described as the excessive shedding of skin on the scalp. Many people suffer from dandruff problems. Fortunately, there are many ways to treat and prevent dandruff.


Causes of Dandruff


Dandruff is a condition marked by excessive scalp flaking and itchiness. Dandruff has several causes, including dry skin, excessive cold weather, Hormonal changes, an overgrowth of yeast. Stress and poor diet also have been linked to dandruff.




Home Remedies:


Keep hair and scalp clean to avoid accumulation of dead cells:
The foremost consideration in the treatment of dandruff is to keep the hair and scalp clean so as to minimise the accumulation of dead cells.

Mix lemon peels with extra virgin coconut oil and allow the mixture to absorb direct sunlight for one week or up to 10 days. Strain the mixture and use it to pre-treat hair before shampooing.


Hair should be brushed daily to improve circulation:
The hair should be brushed daily to improve the circulation and remove any flakiness. Exposure of the head to the rays of the sun is also a useful measure in the treatment of dandruff.

Washing hair in green gram powder twice weekly helps keep the scalp healthy and reduces dandruff.

Using olive oil on hair gives the scalp healthy nourishment with such vitamins as vitamins A, E and K. Olive oil also has anti-inflammatory qualities, which can be helpful when the scalp is irritated. Olive oil should be warmed slightly and applied to the hair and scalp, and keep it for at least 30 minutes before shampooing and rinsing.

Dandruff Treatment using Lime:
The use of a teaspoon of fresh lime juice for the last rinse, while washing the hair, is another useful remedy. This not only leaves the hair glowing but also removes stickiness and prevents dandruff. Lime juice or lemon juice is an excellent oily dandruff home remedy and can also be used to prevent this scalp condition.

Dandruff can be removed by massaging the hair for half an hour with curd which has been kept open for three days, or with a few drops of lime juice mixed. Apply it on your hair before taking shower.


Dandruff Shampoo:
Mild cases of dandruff often can be cured just by washing the hair and scalp daily with a gentle shampoo. Shampooing can remove excess oil and dandruff flakes from the scalp. If a gentle shampoo doesn't do the trick, a medicated dandruff shampoo might be necessary.
