Before we plunge into the remedies, let us have a look at the causes of dandruff. Your dry scalp or various skin problems which we face these days put an impact on our health issues, and it can be one big reason behind the cause of dandruff. Or it could either be caused by an overgrowth of yeast like fungus called malassezia. Your improper diet, improper brushing of hair, infrequent shampooing, lead to poor nourishment of hair.

Dandruff can be easily dealt with home remedies. We are here with some to the rescue and be ready to say good bye to dandruff with these remedies.

1. Ever wonder that the very handy ASPIRIN can cure dandruff too? Neither do I, but when we come to know, that aspirin contains those ingredients (i.e. salicylic acid) present in any kind of medicated shampoo, makes us believe in wonders, the way it can be used. Keep the dandruff under check by crushing three aspirins to fine powder and add it to your shampoo every time you wash your hair. Leave this mixture on your scalp for 2-3 minutes and then rinse well. Wash your hair again with plain shampoo. You will definitely get a dandruff free scalp with a few washes.
2. The very sacred NEEM leaves (Azadirachta indica) are a rescue to dandruff too. Neem, along with its multipurpose advantages, wades away those white flakes as well. All you need is a few dried neem leaves and three tablespoons of olive oil. Crush the neem leaves and mix the resulting powder with olive oil in a bowl. Apply this mixture on your scalp, and for proper conditioning leave it for about an hour. Later, you can rinse your hair with shampoo, and enjoy the smooth texture which the neem leaves left on your hair, due to its antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties.
3. Your daily cup of GREEN TEA is a great help to the hair too. It has anti-oxidants and anti-microbial properties that promote scalp health. Next time when you wash your hair, just brew a cup of green tea as you do in the morning and add 2-3 drops of peppermint essential oil to it. Then add a teaspoon of white vinegar and let it cool. Further, wet your hair under running water and pour the mixture through it. Massage it on your hair for a few minutes and rinse it with a mild shampoo. Now you can walk out confidently with your hair open without worrying to glance over your shoulder for those disgusting white flakes.
4. The everyday used kitchen ingredient- BAKING SODA– is double as effective a dandruff remedy. It is a key to itch free and flake free scalp. Take a bowl and mix three tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, three teaspoons of baking soda and a bowl of apple cider vinegar. Apply the paste to your scalp and leave it for about ten minutes or until your scalp starts to itch. Wash your hair with water. You can later use apple cider vinegar as a conditioner if you wish. Baking soda operates by reducing the over-reactive fungi responsible for dandruff.
5. To treat a severe case of dandruff, LISTERINE MOUTHWASH is a solution. Surprised enough? Well, Listerine mouthwash has anti-fungal properties that fight the dandruff causing yeast and prevents its growth. All you have to do is wash your hair with your regular shampoo and then rinse with the mouthwash. Follow this procedure with your regular conditioner. And now be ready to receive confidence and compliments from every nook and corner.
6. And did anyone tell you that dandruff relief is no further away than your refrigerator if you have LEMONS on hand? Well yes! Lemon’s acidity helps to keep in check the pH of your scalp, which keeps dandruff at bay. Just massage two tablespoons of lemon juice into your scalp. Rinse with water. Then mix 1 tablespoon of lemon into one cup of water and rinse your hair with it. Repeat this as frequently as possible until your dandruff disappear. Well,You can thank us later!
7. Did it even occur to you that the most used ingredient of your kitchen could relieve you of your dandruff too? SALT? Really? Yes ladies. The abrasiveness of ordinary salt works great for rubbing out dandruff. Grab some salt and sprinkle in on your dry scalp. Then give your hair a massage. Gradually the white dry flakes will depart your scalp. Give your hair a good wash with a shampoo and later condition well. You will definitely walk out of the shower with a smile on your face.
