I am carrying this annoying thing called dandruff from quite some time. I used few shampoos as per the couple of doctors suggestion. But now proper results. Are you suffering/suffered from dandruff? How you got it cured? I wanna know whether I have some help from some of you :)

I think Britney make her bald because she had dundruff. Now she don't have to worry about hairdo payments and dundruff problems.

If you want strong hair then apply hair and keep it for an hour then apply hina to your hairs and wash your hair after three hours.

Thanks for suggestion. Using lime juice before bed means, applying it for whole night and washing in the morning ?

Yeah just like creativedreamweaver said use tea-tree oil. Thats what I did when I had dandruff. A little oil to keep your head moist and getting rid of the dry skin never hurt. Hope you solved your problem, Tea-tree oil really is the best thing out there. Otherwise try some herbal natural shampoos those sometimes work as well.

Thanks for your suggestion. Actually I have not got it solved yet, what happenes is earlier when I used something it got cured for a while and again just turned back after a while. So I just want to apply some new medicine which helps in a long run.

I don't suffer from dandruff personally, but have known people that have. I also worked in the beauty industry for some time. My recommendation is to use a shampoo and conditioner that contains tea tree oil. It really works and has no bad effects on your hair, in fact it will improve the quality of your hair. You can find it in reputable salons, or in beauty supply stores that are open to the public.

Well, that is so sad and I feel your pain. What works for me is I keep my head clean and not let it get dried out all the time.

This is a common skin condition. You have an usually fast rate of skin renewal, normally a good thing, but not with dandruff. No real cure, but with nutrition and proper treatment. Wash with any dandruff shampoo. Do not itch and pick. Avoid fried foods, diary products, sugar, flour, chocolate, nuts and seafood. If it gets worse a Doctor may be able to help you. Flaxseed oil intake might help. A good multivitamin cold help. Hope any of this might help!

Although I don't suffer from this dandruff problem but know some effective ways to get rid of this, one is regular use of head and shoulders shampoo another formula is to apply fressh lemon juice to the hair and leave it for some time and then wash it with some mild shampoo and do not use hair gel or hair oil after that.

try nizoral 2-3x a week then for maintenance you can use once a week or every other week. i also tried soaking my hair with vinegar before bath time. it worked for me.

Coconut oil is the best solution for dandruff.Before you take bath message your scalp with coconut oil.Dont use shampoo daily.Use it only once in a week.Never use ground nut oil,it will increase the dandruff.
