Hello
These are the simple things you can do to fight dandruff
1. Add 1tsp of Neem oil to your regular hair oil, apply and leave for an hour before washing it off.
2. Squeeze out a lemon and dilute it with 20 ml water. Use a cotton swab and apply the lemon juice to your entire scalp just 10 minutes before shower. DO NOT keep it for more than 10 min it will cause dryness of hair.
3. Use Maha Bringaraj Taila (Any pharmacy) regularly.
4. Use kesh kanti anti dandruff shampoo by Baba ramdev s patanjali pharmacy. Its completely natural and non chemical based shampoo. (Practice diluting the shampoo in water before use rather than direct application on scalp/hair)
5. Use clean towels to dry hair. (Do not rub vigorously)
6. Clean your combs regularly.
7. Deficiency in Vitamin A B C and Zinc is also the culprit in few so include such vitamin inclusive rich food in diet.
Hope this was helpful.
