Some people lose dead skin from scalp at higher rates which we call as dandruff. This can be sometimes annoying as it causes itching and it looks embarrassing on the hair. So naturally one would want to get rid of it. There are two basic types of dandruff, one is where the scalp sheds dry flakes of skin and the other is where the scalp gets oily and thick dandruff is formed. The latter has to be treated with utmost care as it is severe form of dandruff.
There are various lotions, shampoos and other cosmetic preparations available in the market which can be used to get rid of dandruff. Generally ketoconazole containing preparations are used to treat dandruff. Other than these in severe cases dermatologist may prescribe some topical solutions.
Apart from the Allopathic treatment, people widely prefer home remedies where the dandruff can be cured hassle free. Some of them are:
• Hot oil treatment : Apply hot oil on the scalp as this would stop flaking of your scalp. Leave it overnight and then wash your head next morning and apply lime juice or vinegar and rub your scalp. This generally helps in getting rid of dandruff.
• Using fenugreek : Applying soaked fenugreek seeds will relieve you from dandruff problem. After applying the fenugreek paste on your scalp, rinse your hair lime juice added water.
• Using apple cider vinegar : Applying apple cider vinegar diluted with water helps in curing dandruff.
• Using beet : The roots and tops of beet can be very useful in curing dandruff. Boiling the beet parts and then massaging scalp using the boiled water every night helps.
Apart from these maintaining healthy diets by drinking lots of fruit juices and avoiding junk foods helps in reducing dandruff.
