Dandruff Problems & Solutions

Re: Dandruff - Causes And Home Remedies To Get Rid of Dandruff

Hi All,

I also had severe dandruff problem when I was in college (some 5 yrs back), then i did not care for my hair properly, it got clumped and turned very ugly, it was always itching.

Then one day, I soaked a handful of fenugreek seeds (methi) overnight, made a paste of it abt 1/2 cup and washed my hair with it. Took an hr though, seperating strand by strand and rubbed it with fenugreek paste.

Guess wat, all dandruff vanished, it was like magic. From then on, wenever i get dandruff problem, i run to my methi seeds, they save me :bowdown :bowdown

But yes, you may get cold if u use fenugreek.

Cheers :cheers

excess natural oil (sebum) on the scalp of the head often mixes with dirt and causes dandruff.. use a good branded shampoo to treat dandruff.

 

Hair probs danruff, & greying pls help me out

Hi

I have seen you have helped so many for the hair problem , please help me out.

My Name is Trupti Shah , I m 30 yrs old, married & having one 5yrs old child. My weight is 48-49Kg. I m thin & sleem. We r vegetarian & Jain(not eating Potatos , onion, garlic also). From my childhood my Hair was thin & brown but I ve got good volme of hair.

From last 5-6 yaers ( that to after my pregnancy) I m suffering with heavy hairfall & dandruff & also graying of hair at this age started. Greying of hair started before 2 years. I drink 1 glass of fresh Amla Juice (w/o salt, sugar & water) in the early morning with empty stomach but it doesn’t work. Still I ve not leave the hop. I use to put oil twice in week but avoid hair wash twice a week as & when I wash my hair lot of hair falls on the day of shampooing & oiling. Rest of the day I do not much comb also. I m using Penten regular shampoo for wash. & Oiling with coconut – parachute oil.

I have not done any chemicals treatment on my hair no hair colour , no rebonding , no streighting, no ironing.


My problem is only that I do not eat anything after having amla juice ( except glass of milk after 2hrs. of taking amla juice) as I can not take breakfast as I feel very heaviness & I can not eat during my lunch. Does it affect on hair. Please suggest me if u can.

Should I consult any trichologist.

Please help me out.

Hi,

If you wish consult a good trichologist no harm in it.

You seem to be very weak in health (anemic). Its good to intake amla juice. Continue it. its not good to skip breakfast. Start eating healthy fruits, greens, vegitables, and sprouts. Evry day.

Switch over to amla hair oil or some good herbal hair oil which suits your hair.
Wash your hair atleast twice a week as its necessary to keep the scalp clean. Before hair wash apply suitable hair pack.

Use only herbal shampoo for hair as its mild on hair.Or else use home made hair wash like shaikai .. Other shampoo's are highly chemical based and can damage hair.


I think you seem to be anemic if you make changes to your diet and follow some home remidies will surely make difference and show improvement.

No worries!!!

 

This tip was given to my DH recently by a DOCTOR I'm not sure how good this is? Please give your opinion.

Soak Fenugreek seeds in water overnight.

Apply and massage the scalp with this water in the morning.

Next, cut lemon into two pieces , scrub your scalp with lemon.

Finally massage hair with very little Vinegar.

Have a shampoo wash.

 

This is the most common complaint, and all of us suffer from this at some time or the other. There are a lot of misconceptions associated with the dandruff. People who have this problem rush out and buy up the latest shampoos and conditioners. There is also a misconception that dandruff is caused by the dry scalp. In fact, it is due to an oily scalp. Wrong dietary habits like excessive consumption of cheese and chocolates also cause oil to accumulate on the scalp and cause dandruff. Dandruff further tends to weaken the scalp, and the flakes falling on your face, neck and shoulders can affect your skin too.
