Dandruff or dry scalp is a problem among many people. There are anti-dandruff shampoos and conditioners, but if it just doesn't seem to do the trick, here's more possible ways to decrease or completely demolish this hassle.
First, You could try to use shampoos that contain as little as 5% of tea tree oil, which studies have proven to help reduce dandruff in many participants. You can also just add a few drops of tea tree oil to the shampoo that you already use, or massage tea tree oil to your scalp after washing your hair when it's still wet.
Second. You can use something you most likely already have in your kitchen. Use a teaspoon of baking soda and rub vigorously into the scalp with your hair already wet, then just skip the shampoo and just rinse everything out. Baking soda helps reduce overactive fungus that can be one of the reasons of dandruff. After doing this a few times, your hair may seem dry, but that will cause your scalp to produce more natural oils eliminating dry scalp.
Third. Try using alcohol-based mouthwash since it has anti-fungal properties that help prevent dandruff-causing yeast to grow. What you want to do is wash your hair with your regular shampoo, then rinse with an alcohol-based mouthwash. After, follow with your regular conditioner. This step has been proven to prevent bigger cases or the more severe cases of dandruff.
Fourth. Before showering, massage some coconut oil into your scalp and let it sit for about an hour or so and then wash your hair like normal. Coconut included or based shampoos can also help on its own, since coconut oil is a natural oil that has shown miracles when using for any sort of moisturizing. It could help as well to apply coconut oil and massage into your scalp after washing your hair, for the scalp to receive extra nourishment.
Fifth. Another way is as simple as taking salt and scrubbing your scalp before using your shampoo, and yes I know you're probably thinking, "Wouldn't that dry out the scalp even more?" But the trick is to exfoliate your scalp in the sense that after scrubbing away the flakes and the dry top layer of the scalp, you can nourish it with the nutrients in your regular shampoo and conditioner.
Well these are some of the simple tricks to relieving your hair from the white flakes, I'm certain everyone avoids. But even if after trying these hacks, it doesn't help, there's plenty more ways, so do some research because there's a cure to it one way or another.
