Severe Dandruff
I am 29 years guy. I have a severe dandruff problem. This problem is there since last 2 years.
I have tried many natural home remedies like lemon , apple cider vinegar etc but nothing is helping as the problem is really severe.
I also tried D free lotion for around a month and situation was under control during that month. Once i stopped using it the case is again same.
Could you pleas help me with some permanent cure for dandruff?
Hi! Dandruff is a common occurence. It has a tendency to recur. You have to take continuous efforts to keep it at bay.
1. Shampoo hair as frequently as required. Keep the hair clean. 2. Avoid hair styling products till dandruff goes off. 3. Use anti dandruff shampoo which contains ketoconazole once or twice a week. 4.Oil clean washed hair. 5. Do not try to scrape or comb away the flakes. Be gentle with your hair and scalp. 6. Wash your combs and brushes regularly. Do not share them
Next Steps
See a Dermatologist personally for products which suit your needs and hair scalp type.
