Dandruff Treatment
Unfortunately there is no cure for dandruff yet (once you get it you may continue to have it), but there are ways that you can control and limit dandruff.

If you have only a mild case of dandruff, shampooing your hair with a regular shampoo daily or twice a day will usually do the trick.

Start out by trying a mild shampoo, stronger shampoos can irritate and dry out your hair making dandruff flaking worst.

If your standard shampoo doesn't get rid of your dandruff, buy an anti-dandruff shampoo and your dandruff condition should improve signifigantly in a couple of weeks.

Picking the right shampoo for your hair can be a process of trial and error, try out different shampoos to see which one works best for you and also rotating shampoos periodically can be good for your hair.

Once you have found an anti-dandruff shampoo that works for you, keep on using it or your dandruff will most likely reoccur.

Lather and rinse twice when using anti-dandruff shampoos, the first time cycle will clean your scalp, the second cycle will medicate it.

If you think you may have a severe case of dandruff, it is advised that you set up an appointment with a dermatologist.
Poor health may be the cause of your dandruff, so be sure to get enough sleep, eat nutritiously, and avoid stress inducing activities.

Something in your diet may be causing you to have an allergic reaction and trigger dandruff to occur, try limiting your diet and see if your dandruff gets any better. Some foods that commonly cause an alergic reaction causing dandruff include nuts, choclate and shellfish.

If you have to scratch your head, avoid using your fingernails to scratch (you'll risk an infection if you do) instead use the pads of your fingers.

Wear a hat outside on days that are extremely cold, windy, and when you're going to be out in the sun for a lengthy period.

Use a humidifier to keep the air moist.

Limit the use of hair coloring and hair styling products with alcohol which dries out hair.

Make sure that you get an adequate ammount of B6 in your diet, which will help prevent dandruff.

Massage your scalp with the pads of your fingers in a circular motion to increase circulation.

Answer 3

that all depends do you use hair products. if you do it may be a build up and that would be the white partcles. even though your washing your hair the build up is tough to get rid of, you can get product build up shampoos for that. On the other hand if its dandruff, just use a dandruff treatment shampoo, and be sure to choose the right type, because they still have the options for greasy hair or dry hair etc... if it doesnt work try an intensive anti-dandruff. And if that doesnt work go see your doctor because it could be something different like psoriasos or eczema. i thought i had really bad dandruff but its turned out i have psoriasis. They look the same but yet so different. good luck!

Answer 4

Try using Anti - Dandruff Shampoo preferrebly Heads & Shoulders. Do not attempt to scratch your head often or else the skin on your scalp may peel off (those are the white stuff). If you are a guy, and if you dont mind as a last resort, shave your head. To me, shaving my head is the best, so that while the hair grows, all the dandruff would utterly go away.

Answer 5

1. Reduce using other people's cloths like caps (as they may have dandruff) 2. Bath daily with anti dandruff shampoo 3. use ani-dandruff oil

Answer 6

try Head & Shoulders for dry scalp. best stuff in the world.
wash your hair every other day. apply conditoner and hair products on the ends of your hair only.

Answer 7

I was told by my hair dresser to buy Paul Mitchells tea tree shampoo. It makes your head tingle all the way up intil your hair drys and it really is a minty refreshing feeling. It worked for me and it is just very soothing for your scalp. It runs about 12 dollars a bottle. I'm assuming you can get it at any salon that sells paul mitchell. Hope this helped!

Answer 8
