Dandruff in 6 year old

2025-12-04 17:01:23
My 6 year old daughter has a small patch of dandruff on her head. And it has started to spread now . I regularly shampoo her hair and use coconut oil. I have dandruff, so may be because of that she also got dandruff. Please give some  remedy/ treatment as I don't want to use any harsh chemicals on my child's head.

Yea it is possible. You can start using aritha soap or shampoo based herbal aritha,and add camphor powder in hair oil whenever you do head massage to her to get rid of dandruff. Do not shampoo regularly and keep the hair oil for few days or else the scalp will get very dry.
Health Tips
Give her nutritious diet.
