Dandruff is the shedding of dead skin cells from the scalp. It often results in itching and may leads to hair fall.
  • Add extract of Datura leaves to coconut oil. Heat the oil for 15-20 minutes and use daily before bath for massaging over the scalp.
  • Massage coconut oil on the hair and then apply neem leaf paste over the scalp. Wash after one hour.
  • Boil water with some neem leaves. Use that water to wash the hair daily.
  • Prepare a gel of aloe vera leaves. Apply this on the scalp and leave it overnight. Wash it with a shampoo, preferably containing shikakai the next morning.
  • Use 1-2 teaspoon of freshly prepared lemon juice and rinse over the scalp and wash it away.
