Simple ways to treat dandruff


We share with you simple tips to treat dandruff

Eat right. You might be told to do that for all sorts of things, but really, it is the basic prerequisite for overall good health. Have lots of zinc, Omega-3 fatty acids, E and B vitamins, and avoid yeast and sugar.

Oiling is the next basic step to healthy hair. Your grandmother was right - regular tel maalish does lead to healthy, dandruff-free hair. Leave the oil in for a while, don't wash it off immediately.

Excessive use of hairstyling products like hairspray, mousse, gels contain ingredients that might make the scalp dry, causing flaking and itching.

Use an anti-dandruff shampoo, but make sure you know what the 'active ingredient' in it is.

Washing your hair with mildly acidic products like lemon juice, baking soda, tea leaves or apple cider vinegar might also help, but consult a beautician or your doctor before you use these home remedies. source
