Sometimes dandruff can be treated and prevented by using a good quality shampoo such as those sold by hairdressers. If dandruff does not disappear after a few weeks using a good shampoo, an anti-dandruff shampoo may solve the problem.
Shampoos contain one of five active ingredients: salicylic acid, coal-tar, zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide and sulphur. These shampoos are non-prescription and the ingredients are approved for use by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Well known over-the-counter brands include Head and Shoulders, Denorex, Selsun Blue, Tegrin, Sebutone or Neutrogena T/Gel or T/Sal.
If necessary, shampoo daily with these shampoos, lathering well and making sure the lather remains on the scalp for 5 minutes before rinsing to allow the active ingredients to work. Take care with tar-based shampoos as they can stain light-coloured or grey hair and make the scalp more sun-sensitive. Anti-dandruff shampoos can make the hair brittle and weak, so use of a good hair conditioner is recommended.
When dandruff has cleared, begin using a good quality shampoo and rotate the use of the anti-dandruff shampoos as necessary. Some sufferers may need to try a range of anti-dandruff shampoos to gain best results, or rotate between various products, as continued use of one product seems to lose effectiveness over time.
