Getting Rid Of dandruff

[Ashu]

Wet your hair well with vinegar and massage into the scalp.
Leave the vinegar in the hair for about five minutes.
Once it starts to dry wash your hair.
Repeat this process daily until the dandruff disappears, usually within a few days

Something that is good for any kind of scaly scalp problem is to look to supplementing the diet with zinc. It helps with scaly itchy skin and scalp issues.

Last time, I have a very bad dandruff problem, now it's all gone.Try using Selsun or Head and Shoulder shampoo. It works for me.

Won't vinegar hurt the scalp though? I used to have really itchy scalp when I had dandruff so I scratched all the time. The result was that I had some open wounds on my head too. It's very interesting though. I'll try it next time if Head&Shoulders doesn't. How much vinegar should I use though? Is half a cup enough?

[alice]

Cool! Thanks for the recipes Ashma! I am having dandruff right now (its the beginning of winters you see). I will try this recipe out and will let you know the results here.:)

Thanks for sharing this with us, it sounds like it might work so I will give it a try

[nlp18]

Thanks for the instructions!
Will probably help a lot of people, however I consider myself very lucky these days, so I probably won't need this myself. I used to have horrible dandruff problems! This might sound a bit over used and what not, but I just use head and shoulders these days. A lot of people might say that it doesn't work for them, but strangely enough it works for me.

Well, I support you. It works for me too. Can't live without my "head and shoulders". Will decant a small bottle even when I go travelling.

thanks but are u sure vinegar will have no side effects on hair.

I finally found a medicated shampoo called Nizoral which really helped my itching and flaking. Nothing else seemed to do a whole lot. It is expensive but it works well.

[Dr.Deepak]

yup Nizoral is the better options ..it contains antifungal properties-ketoconazole which works good on dandruff

Someone here recommended using a vinegar rinse for dandruff. I was wondering exactly how that worked. What does it do to the ph of the hair and scalp? Does anyone know?

[Starchild47]

I would not go over 1/4 cup of vinegar that should be more than enough. If you have any open sores then I would cleanse with peroxide or some lysterine to clean them out too.

[vencasand]

i am going to try the recipe from Ashma. i really hope it works on psoriasis. i am not losing my hair but just my scalp!! i am embarrassed with flakes on my shoulders. if vinegar works i will be one happy person. thanks Ashma

For dandruff problem; soak 1 tbsp of fenugreek seeds overnight. Grind them into a paste. Apply on hair for an hour and wash it off using gram flour paste

[Neetalia]

Hi Ashma,

Is there any proof that this vinegar treatment won't hurt scalp or cause any other derma problem

[GAURAV]

"Head and shoulder" is my Best shampoo for dandruff. Some time I also used "ALL CLEAR" shampoo :love::love:

[jstevenson]
