Alternative Treatment for Dandruff

There are several easy home remedies that can help you to eliminate dandruff. You can add a few drops of tea tree oil to your regular shampoo and use it as you normally do. Tea tree oil is a very strong anti fungal and antiseptic substance and will help in clearing up your dandruff almost immediately. Of course, this means about a week or so. If your problem is chronic, it may also mean that you will have to follow some more remedial measures for a longer period of time before you can rid yourself of it completely.

You can apply warm almond or olive oil to your hair, leave it on overnight and wash it off the next morning. An hour before washing it off, rub half a lime into your scalp. Let this dry. Once it starts itching, take it as an indicator that the lime juice is working at removing dandruff from its roots. Follow this procedure for a couple of weeks before you expect to see a squeaky clean scalp, which is free of oil as well. You can also make camphor wash and apply this to the roots of your hair. This can be made at home by crushing a few pieces of camphor and adding them to water. Let this stand for about two days before using it to rinse out your hair. This will counter dandruff growth very well.

Dandruff is generally caused due to dryness of the scalp, which results in flaking. Poor diet, stress and heredity can also contribute to dry hair and dandruff.

Coconut oil is the best remedy to this problem! It actually works as a magic potion and supplements all the essential nutrients and vitamins your hair requires to grow strong and healthy. The benefits of Coconut oil have been long proven and regular head massages boost circulation, thereby driving blood to scalp and promoting hair growth.
