Dandruff is common problem

[moonjee06]

Dandruff is common problem for both dry and oily hair. During summer, the oil glands of our hair produce extra oil which keeps the skin of our scalp soft. At the time of dandruff, these glands produce extra oils. It also brings about change which unbalances the structure of this oil.

There are two kinds of dandruff:

1. Dry Dandruff: Dry dandruff is identified with small white patches of rusting on our scalp which results in itching sensation. While itching or combing this rusting sheds off. We can get rid of it merely by oil massage.

Remedies


Add one spoon of caster oil to coconut oil and apply this mixture on the skin of your scalp gently and leave it for half an hour. Thereafter shampoo your hair.


Take half cup of curd and put fenugreek into it. Upon fenugreek becoming wet, prepare a paste after grinding and apply this paste to hair roots carefully and leave it for two hours. Then shampoo your hair.


Add lemon juice to the juice of Neem leaves and apply it to hair roots. Leave it for 30 minutes and then wash your hair.

Massage your Hair with coconut oil. Wrap a wet towel wrung out of hot water around hair and shampoo hair the next day. This must be done twice a week.


2. Oily Dandruff: This problem is faced mostly by those who have oily skin. This is identified with white minute particles in our hair. While combing or itching, these white particles spread in hair which results into itching sensation. Sometimes this dandruff is of light yellow colour and sticky as well. It also causes foul smell. The continued persistence of this kind of Dandruff may cause falling of hair.
