How to remove dandruff naturally?

I prefer using natural things for everything, even for my hair. Can anyone suggest some effective ways to remove dandruff using only natural methods? I want to avoid harsh chemicals.

Bro, honestly, nothing worked for me like simple diluted apple cider vinegar. Just mix it with equal water and spray it on your scalp 15 mins before washing. Don't use hot water for bath, it totally drys up the scalp and makes dandruff way worse.

Beta, in our times we used to warm a little coconut oil with a few drops of fresh lemon juice and apply it gently. Do not rub too hard as it can damage the hair roots. If the itching and scaling are very heavy, then home remedies will not suffice, you must show it to a skin specialist.

I hope you find relief soon. Dandruff can be so annoying and irritating to deal with. Try using aloe vera gel from the plant directly, it really helps calm the scalp irritation.

What we put inside our body matters so much for skin health. Try cutting down on greasy fried foods and excess sugar, which can trigger yeast growth. Adding curd to your daily diet can also keep your gut and scalp healthy.

Please don't keep trying home tricks if it doesn't go away in a week or two. I ignored my scaling scalp for months thinking it was just dry weather, and it turned into a severe fungal infection that caused massive hair fall. Go to a dermatologist and get a proper medicated lotion before it gets bad.

Does anyone else get severe itching along with dandruff, especially when sweating? It makes me so self-conscious in public. I tried lemon but it burned so much, is that normal or should I stop immediately?

Dandruff is very common and completely manageable, so don't stress. A simple curd and methi seed paste pack works wonders for mild cases. Keep a separate comb and wash your pillow covers regularly to prevent it from coming back.
