Dandruff 

Dandruff is very common it affects more than 50% of the population in the USA.
It's a scalp disorder that affects many people, independent of age or hair type.
Many people affected by dandruff find that it can cause social or self-esteem problems.

Some people can experience an unusual amount of flaking either chronically, medical reasons such as eczema or psoriasis or a skin condition called seborrheic dermatitis.
It can also be caused by stress, dry scalp, chemical abuse or poor diet.
But if your scalp is red or very itchy or scabby you should see your doctor.

Abusive use of hair gels, hair spray and harsh chemicals can dry your scalp resulting in itchy scalp, dandruff and hair breakage.

Although it's harmless and embarrassing but you shouldn't allow it to run your life. It can be pretty embarrassing walking around with those ugly white flakes on your shoulders but you shouldn't allow it to affect your self-esteem and destroy your life by making you anti-social.

Baking Soda
Baking soda reduces overactive fungi that causes dandruff.
Wet your hair and then rub a handful of baking soda into your scalp, let sit for about 15 min.
Skip the shampoo just go right to rinsing and style as usual.                                                                                         



Apple Cider Vinegar



The acidity of apple cider changes the PH of your scalp, making it a bit resistant for dandruff to grow.
Just mix a quarter cup of apple cider vinegar with a quarter cup of water in a spray bottle and spritz on your scalp. Wrap your head in a towel and let sit for 15 min to an hour then shampoo as usual. Do this treatment twice a week.




Fresh Lemon Juice 

Just as vinegar, lemon's acidity helps to balance the PH of your scalp.
Massage 2 table spoons of fresh (or bottle) lemon juice into your scalp let sit for few min than rinse
 with water. Or stir 1 table spoon of lemon juice into 1 cup of water and rinse your hair with it.
Repeat this treatment daily until your dandruff disappear.
