Home Remedies for Dandruff

One of the most common hair problem is dandruff. It is a kind of skin disease that is caused by an extremely dry scalp from which it gives off white flakes every time you scratch it. This medical condition can be induced by not eating a balanced diet, poor personal hygiene, or allergies. The frequent use of styling products can also lead to dandruff. The regular exposure to extreme heat is one of the contributing factors of dandruff. In such cases wear a scarf or hat. Sometimes, the solution to dandruff is simpler than you think here are some wonderful home remedies to get rid of dandruff.

• The use of fenugreek seed is one of the most important remedies. Two tablespoon of these seeds should be soaked overnight in water and ground into a fine paste in the morning. This should be applied all over the scalp and left for half an hour. The hair should be thoroughly with soap-nut solution .This remedy is effective for those who are suffering from dry itchy dandruff.
• Dandruff can be removed by massaging the hair for half an hour with curd which has been kept in the open for three days ,or with a few drops of lime juice mixed with Indian gooseberry juice every night, before going to bed.

• Finely mince or grate a 3-inch piece of ginger. Place in a saucepan along with four chamomile tea bags and a quart of water. Simmer, covered for 15 to 20 minutes. Let the tea cool, then strain. After shampooing, massage 1/2 to 1 cup (depending on how long your hair is) into your scalp for a few minutes. Don't rinse. You can refrigerate any leftover tea for your next shampoo. This old folk remedy could do the trick. Cut a thick stalk or two off your aloe plant, and squeeze out as much gel as you can. Apply the gel to your scalp and massage in. You can do this right before bed, and cover your hair with a bandanna. Or, just massage it in and leave it in for an hour or two. Then, hop in the shower and foam the aloe with water, massaging for a few minutes before rinsing. Don't use shampoo.

• Make an antidandruff brew by adding 2 tablespoons of dried rosemary to 1 cup boiled water. Cover and steep for 20 min, then strain and cool. Use as a final rinse after shampooing and conditioning, and massage well into the scalp. For best results don't rinse out.

• An apple cider vinegar rinse is perhaps the most popular dandruff remedy for all time .To use simply soak a cotton ball with vinegar and apply all over the scalp or just pour a cup or so over your hair and massage your hair for a few minutes.Allow to dry.

• Wet your hair with warm water. Massage it with warm coconut oil. Cover it with a shower cap and leave it for twenty minutes. Rinse well with warm water. 

• Combine olive and almond oil in equal amount. Apply it to scalp and hair. Leave it for ten minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Apply one tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice to your hair. Treat it like a conditioner. Leave it for five minutes before rinsing.
• Beat two eggs and apply it to hair and scalp with a gently massage. Leave it for fifteen minutes. Wash it well with warm water.

These are some of the natural cures of dandruff. Without use of the dandruff shampoo the remedies above can be very good anti dandruff solutions.
