7 NATURAL WAYS TO FIGHT DANDRUFF
Dandruff is a common problem in many people's everyday lives.
What is dandruff? Dandruff is the result of dry skin of the scalp. It can also occur due to various conditions, such as eczema or psoriasis.
Dead skin cells of the epidermis are detached and the result is… known to everyone.
Special shampoos is one way to treat it, but it is not the only one.
Let’s take a look at 7 natural ways to fight dandruff
1. Aspirin
Aspirin contains the same active ingredient (salicylic acid) as many special shampoos that fight dandruff. Crush 2 aspirins in powder and use it during shampooing. Let the mixture work for 2 minutes before rinsing.
2. Tea tree oil
According to research, shampoos that contain only 5% tea tree help to improve the appearance of dandruff. Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your shampoo and see the difference.
3. Baking soda
The secret of fighting dandruff may be hidden in your kitchen. Soak your hair and rub baking soda on your head for 3-4 minutes. Rinse well, without shampoo. After a few weeks your skin will start to re-produce its natural oils.
4. Coconut oil
Coconut oil is one of the most effective ingredients for treating dandruff. Massage your head with 3-5 teaspoons of coconut oil and let it act for about 1 hour. Then wash your hair as usual.
5. Lemon
Massage your head with 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and rinse with water. Repeat often, as the lemon acids help to balance the pH of the scalp.
6. Salt
Salt is the ideal scrub for the removal of dead skin cells before shampooing. Massage your head with salt before your usual shampooing.
7. Olive oil
Massage your head with 10 drops of extra virgin olive oil before bedtime and let it act all night without rinsing it. Wash normally in the morning. Repeat as often as needed
