Dandruff is characterized by itchy, white flakes of skin on your scalp that may be uncomfortable.
It may be caused by multiple factors, including:
* Dry skin
* Seborrheic Dermatitis
* Sensitivity to hair products
* The growth of a Malassezia Yeast – which is a type of fungus
Dandruff isn\’t usually as visible as you might think it is, but with a few quick steps, you can make it disappear almost completely.
- COCONUT OIL WITH LEMON
Coconut oil is said to keep your hair nourished, and when this is mixed with a little lemon juice, it can cure dandruff. This combination serves as an effective home remedy, using coconut oil for dandruff treatment is also an easy way to get rid of those tiny flakes that can pull your confidence down.
- ALOE VERA
Aloe Vera can reduce the oil build-up on your scalp, while maintaining a healthy amount of moisture. It curtails the growth of the dandruff causing microbes and instantly cools down any itching. It can even reduce the redness on your scalp due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
- APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
Washing the scalp with a solution of diluted apple cider vinegar may help reduce dandruff. Dilute 1–3 tablespoons (tbsp) of apple cider vinegar with warm water. After shampooing the hair, pour the apple cider vinegar wash over the head. Use the fingers to massage the mixture into the scalp.
- EGG YOLK
The best way to use egg yolk is in the form of a hair mask. Mix egg yolk with olive oil to create a stable mixture. Apply it to your hair and let it remain for 30 to 40 minutes. Wash it thoroughly with cold water and a gentle shampoo.
