Lemon
Simply cut a lemon in half, squeeze out the juice, and apply it directly to your scalp without diluting it with water. Then, use the lemon peel to gently massage your scalp for about 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it off with water.
Dandruff occurs when skin cells in the stratum corneum shed too rapidly from the scalp.
Olive Oil
Take 2 tablespoons of olive oil and heat it in the microwave for half a minute until it is warm. Apply this oil to your scalp every night before bedtime. Cover your head with a non-absorbent cap to ensure the oil doesn’t stain your bedding. In the morning, wash your hair as usual.
Garlic with Honey
Garlic has antifungal and anti-yeast properties. Mixing garlic with a teaspoon of honey creates an effective anti-dandruff remedy. Apply this mixture to your scalp and leave it on for about 15 minutes before rinsing it off with shampoo.
Baking Soda
This ingredient helps control excessive oil secretion from the scalp. Take a teaspoon of baking soda and add a few drops of water to form a thick paste. Massage this mixture into your scalp and then rinse it off with your regular shampoo.
