Say Goodbye to Dandruff

Every time you comb your hair or wear your favourite LBD, you are erm...embarrassed by
those snowy flakes. Dandruff is ugh and causes problems like itching and acne.

Here are some homemade remedies that will help you get rid of dandruff.

The cause
Dandruff is a scalp ailment and can be cured by keeping your scalp clean. Avoid shampooign
your hair everyday to keep dandruff away. Another way is to skip fried foods and chocolates.

Home remedies
Boil a few neem leaves. Cool and then filter the solution. Use this as a last rinse after you
shampoo. You can also mix a few sweet neem leaves with basil (tulsi) leaves, grind it into a
paste and apply it on your hair for half an hour. Wash this off to get lustrous, dandruff-free
locks.

Grandma's advice
Soak a handful of fenugreek seeds overnight in water, grind it to a fine paste in the morning
and apply it for a half hour on your scalp. Wash this off with soap-nut (reetha) solution and
rinse with shikakai to condition. Follow this regimen faithfully for beautiful tresses.

Bedtime care
Boil beetroot in water and gently massage the liquid into your hair before sleeping. You can
also massage your hair with stale curd or a simple concoction of lime and amla juice. Curd is
an excellent conditioner, while lime keeps that dandruff away.

Steam therapy
This is the most commonly used way to tackle dandruff and mostly never fails. Gently
massage warm coconut oil onto your scalp. Apply the juice of two limes. Now, dip a towel in
hot water and cover your scalp and hair with it. Wash it off after two hours for soft, shiny
hair. Alternately, apply the paste of raw papaya on your hair and leave it on for ten minutes
before shampooing.
