Dandruff

Posted by priya darsini at 23:54

Dandruff is a condition in which the scalp is covered with small flakes. The flakes come away while brushing or combing the hair. Dandruff causes itching and hair loss. Itching induces scratching which causes further damage.

Malassazia is the fungus believed to cause dandruff.

Solution for Dandruff

  • Massage scalp every night at bed time with one tsp each of castor oil, mustard oil and coconut oil.
  • Massage the scalp with a mixture of one part of lemon juice to two parts of coconut oil. Leave for 3 to 4 hours; then wash off with warm water.
  • Sandal wood oil (1 part) mixed with lemon juice (3 parts) is very effective.
  • Do not use other people’s comb and do not lend yours. Dandruff is infective.
