how do u get rid of dandruff?

Question

if i spelled it wrong that white stuff that comes from your head

Answer 1

There are many different variants of dandruff. If you find shampoos like Head and shoulder and selsun blue don't work you may have a form of Psoriasis and should be treated by a dermatologist.

Sadly in most cases dandruff can never been completely "cured", only prevented. Here are a few suggestions:

Washing your hair too often can leave your scalp dry. If you find this to be the case, cut your shampooing down to every other day.

A good moisturizing conditioner can work wonders if used religiously.

Try not to use too many "products" in your hair since many of these contain harsh ingredients that can dry out the hair and scalp.

While a good dandruff shampoo works great, using it too often will have the opposite effect of what you expected. Remember most of these products are only intended to be used one or twice a week.

If you find your dandruff problem persists consult a dermatologist.

Answer 2

You can only truly get rid of it with a dermatologist-prescribed shampoo or treatment. Dandruff is caused by a bacteria in the follicles of your scalp, not just by having a dry, flaky scalp. Drugstore shampoos like Head & Shoulders make the problem go away for a little while, then end up making it worse, so you'll just buy more of it.

Answer 3

This question was asked earlier. Try apple cider vinegar. If it's really bad and you can afford it, ask your doctor to prescribe Nizoral. This stuff works miracles even on the WORST dandruff.

Good luck!
