Try this remedy: mix equal quantities of olive oil with pure coconut oil and add a couple of Vitamin E capsules into it. Massage well into the scalp and leave it out for about 45 minutes and wash it off with a normal shampoo. Make sure you don’t wash the scalp thoroughly.

Listen,first of all,you don’t need to use anything oily (olive oil,mayo,anything of this oily kind) if you have oily skin/prone to breakouts on your body. You will break out! I have the most oily skin you could find in the world,and I’m a woman. So I wouldn’t touch any greasy products at all. If you wash it out good right away,and wash your face/body with soap afterwards,maybe. I wouldn’t want to go around with olive oil on my hair for days,it would be a greasy mess,try a few hours? Wrapped up maybe in a towel? Always with any shampoo you use,repeat,don’t just wash once,it makes a big difference.

I just used some of the the remedies and it totally worked practically immediately!

I put Light Extra virgen olive oil (i dont think it matters if its light or not, light was all i had) in my hair (mostly on the sclap) for a while, while doing some house chores (about an hour). Then I washed it out and used my normal pantene shampoo. Afterwards I waited about 10 minutes and then rinsed out my hair with apple vinegar. It smells horrible but i washed it out as soon as it spread around my head and I massaged it in a little. I washed it about 3 times before the smell came out and now i am not brushing my scalp as much with the brush. Just brushing my hair about half way instead unless i need to part it.

I think the wonder treatment for dandruff is a cup of very sour (stale) home made curd (yogurt)and 1/2 a lime should be mixed well and applied to the scalp and left on for an hour. This should then be washed off and then hair washed with a mild shampoo or no shampoo. All the best suffering amigos.

hi I tried Olive oil and it made my dandruff WORST. I have seborrheic dermatitis and putting EVO on my face caused me to have yellow scales pealing off with a super inflamed red skin. The yellow scales from the scalp were kind of fun to comb off though, never had my dandruff so big!!! But the face was very irritating.
My solution came when I washed my hair twice a day. W/O Shampoo!! THe idea is to get the oil off. seb derm is caused by excess oil that’s what I read. And the EVO just proved it. With more oil, it became worst. When I started washing my hair twice a day, it got under control. Anytime I skipped the hairwash, dandruff got worst.

Recently I shaved my head. Not a complete shave, but a beard shave. So really close. And guess what, no more dandruff problem! I believe that less hair = less oil trapped. Also more sun exposure which is supposed to be good.

This might not work for all cases of dandruff, especially if yours is due to dry skin. But for the seb derm sufferes, I hope that this helps you because I fully understand what you are going through and I would wish that somebody posted this when I was suffering. I wish you all the best! God bless you all and may you all be protected from the evil ones (especially muslim terrorists). haha.

The best remedy for dandruff. Do not ever use tap water on your hair for washing and cold or warm is better as others have pointed out. If you have a water purification system, all the better.

The best shampoos are; Nizoral or selsum blue. When washing hair use distilled water. Leave the selsum blue in your hair over night and wash out in the morning. With Nizoral, leave in one hour, but no longer than that. Remember to wash and rinse with distilled water. there is something in tap water that makes dandruff much worse.
Use the shampoo everyday for a week afterwards, using the distilled water. And you will notice that your dandruff will be mostly, if not all gone. As soon as you use the tap water, your dandruff WILL come back. Any other natural remedies will better enhance the effects after doing this.

For children and babies, do not use the above shampoos on their hair.
For babies, use Dr. Bronners castille soap, but use a toothbrush to remove flakes from scalp before washing, and use the extra virgin coconut oil for conditioning and oiling the scalp.

Over 12 years old, use selsum blue, do not leave in over night like adults. Leave in 1 hour max.

For everyone, especially, African Americans use raw extra virgin coconut oil to condition and grease the scalp.
