For good hair without dandruff, drink at least 2 liter water, eat lots of salads, green vegetables, and fresh fruits. Combs must be washed as frequently and hair should be brushed regularly. Dandruff is a scalp condition that can be controlled. Too little oil or too much oil can result in dandruff. Try the following:
Mix 2 teaspoons pure vinegar in 6 teaspoons water and apply it on the scalp before going to bed. Tie a towel around the head. Wash your head next morning. After shampooing, rinse again with vinegar water. Treat your hair like this once a week for at least three months.
Mix 1 teaspoons lemon juice with 2 teaspoons vinegar and massage on the scalp. Wash your hair with an egg shampoo.
Take 1 part almond oil, 1 part pure sulphur powder, 2 parts 'surgical spirit' and 4 parts distilled water or rose water and mix well. Rub on the scalp.
Take 2 cup water, add 4-5 tablespoons dried thyme and boil for 10 minutes. Cool, strain, and use the mixture to massage scalp. Keep for half an hour.
Dissolve 2 aspirins in any dandruff shampoo and wash your hair.
Massage the scalp with almond oil. Dip a towel in boiling water and wrap it around the hair. Repeat it thrice or four times when the towel gets cold.
Make a shampoo by mixing 100 g each of amla (Indian goose berry), reetha, and shikakai, and boil in two litre of water until the liquid reduces to half. Use this shampoo for one month. Dandruff will vanish and your hair will become thick.
Grind fenugreek (methi) seeds soaked in water overnight. Massage this paste on scalp and hair and leave it for 15-20 minutes. Wash it off with a mild shampoo.
Wash your hair with warm apple cider vinegar. Then cover your head with a towel or a shower cap and leave for about 30-40 minutes. Rinse with plain water. Repeat 2 times a week until your dandruff goes away.
Mix 100 g witch hazel and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice in 200 ml water. Shampoo your hair and apply with cotton to the scalp when the hair are still wet. Repeat several times until the dandruff is treated.
Try a shampoo with selenium sulfide or salicylic acid.
Try Zest soap once a week. It may work for oily hair. It leaves your hair dry, so use conditioner to your hair only but try not to get it on your scalp. It has worked to get rid of dandruff for some people.

Dandruff is one of the major disorders of the scalp.Poor hygiene, improper diet ,sluggish condition of the scalp caused by poor blood circulation are the main causes of dandruff. A herbal rinse is a safe method of removing dandruff. Apply lemon juice with the rind on the scalp .After 5 minutes wash off with shampoo and water.

Yes use T-gel. (its a shampoo in case you are unsure and it isn't expensive at all)
you don't have to wash your hair with it everyday that can actually dry out your scalp (or at least for me) but use it once a week and give your scalp a good scrubbing. After your shower dry your hair right away, leaving it to air dry can cause dandruff for some people. After you use T-gel and dry your hair it might appear that there is more dandruff but it will go away because that is the dead skin coming off of your scalp

If you haven't already tried it, Head and Shoulders shampoo works rather nicely. I used it and I have a bad case of dandruff.

Anti dandruff shampoo. It's everywhere and should say so on the bottle. Try pharmacies and supermarkets to buy some.

you should do is to consult any doctor that regards your problem but wait there is another way use any shampoo that will fit in your hair do not just use any shampoo like head and shoulder and stuff you must use anything that will not give any irritation on your part...

I have been in the hair and nail industry in the past and many people do not understand that dandruff is in fact a fungal infection like athletes foot is a fungal infection .
Your body inside needs a replacement of a flora
( Puritans pride, the heath food store or MELALUCA INC.makes these )supplement the highest colony of Bactria in it to replace the beneficial Bactria in your body that naturally feeds on fungus and bad Bactria .
Topical treatments like shampoos can help but will not balance your body to get rid of it. Things like high carbs and antibiotics without a flora replacement can aggravate any fungal infection make sure you blow your hair bone dry cause any fungus thrives in moist areas . using natural shampoos like Melaleuca brands give your scalp beneficial natural oils that fight fungal growth as well. Keep your bedding clean cause like mold dandruff can spread . Hope this helps
