For me, using a basic tea tree oil shampoo twice a week worked wonders. I also stopped applying heavy hair oils directly to my scalp because my barber said it just feeds the fungus. That combination kept my scalp clean and dry.

I was reading some forums yesterday because even I am trying to fix this. Apparently, washing your hair brush regularly and not keeping your scalp wet for too long after a shower makes a huge difference. Has anyone tried those medicated ketoconazole shampoos? I am seeing that recommended everywhere.

Hamare yahan toh hamesha neem ke patte paani mein ubaal kar sir dhone ko kehte hain. It really helps soothe the itching. Just make sure the water is not hot, warm water is best for hair.

My scalp gets crazy itchy during exams due to stress, I guess. I just switched to a mild anti-dandruff shampoo from the local pharmacy and stopped using hair wax for a bit. It’s mostly gone now, thankfully.

Actually yaar, Mumbai humidity makes dandruff so much worse. I tried all those costly hair serums but nothing worked like regular curd and lemon applied before a bath. Just wash it off in 15 mins, otherwise it starts smelling thoda weird.
