4 Tips to Get Rid of Dandruff

May 6, 2014

There is nothing more distracting than having chunky white flakes falling down from your scalp, and maybe even more embarrassing than scratching your head as you talk to your friends and work colleagues. If you are getting sick of dandruff ruining and running your life, here are four tips to stay dandruff-free:

#1. Take your time: It may seem a bit trivial, but today’s life is spent at full speed, seeking any shortcuts to save time. This high-pace living leads to neglect our own health care and damage it because we don’t pay enough attention to it. The answer is to slow down. Take your time when rinsing your hair, as water offers nutrients and hydration to hair and scalp. If you use a hair dryer, set it on cool to avoid drying your hair out. Once a day, take a gentle hairbrush to promote blood circulation that will stimulate hair follicles.

#2. Don’t mistreat your hair: Styling is always good, but try to find salons that care more about your hair care than just style. For example, listen carefully when hair professionals advise to wait between treatments. Remember that overuse of styling products may lead to scalp irritation and clogging, which will produce dandruff.

#3. Use the right shampoo: It is possible that you have been using a shampoo that doesn’t target the root of your problems. In order to find the appropriate treatment, consult a physician that will identify your hair problem. Note that many professionals recommend to use Ketoconazole based solutions to treat dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis conditions. Ketoconazole is an active ingredient dermatologically tested that works by treating the underlying cause of dandruff, by restoring your scalp back to its normal healthy state.

#4. Nurture your hair from within: Having a balanced diet is crucial to promote healthy, shinny and dandruff-free hair. An effective diet includes eating organic grown fruits and fiber, as well as getting foods loaded in Vitamin B complex and omega 3 fatty acids. Want to know if diet cure dandruff (and psoriasis)?
