Get Rid of Dandruff With This Natural Home Remedies

Dandruff, also known as seborrheic dermatitis is a common scalp disorder.

Apply an equal quantity mixture of white vinegar with water on the scalp skin about half an hour before a head wash.

2. Baking Soda

Baking soda, acts as a scrub and exfoliates the scalp gently, without irritating it and removing dead skin cells. Exfoliation is essential to ensure there is no build up of flakes on the scalp that make dandruff even more visible.

You can simply add some baking soda to your shampoo while washing hair to derive its benefits.

3. Neem

Garlic is immensely beneficial as an anti-fungal natural product and the benefits of raw or crushed garlic have mesmerized man for centuries. Pound a clove or two of garlic and after mixing with water, use it on your scalp to see quick results. The smell? You could always mix in a little honey and ginger!
