  • DANDRUFF

    • Use Anti-Dandruff Shampoos: Choose shampoos specifically formulated to combat dandruff. Look for active ingredients like ketoconazole, zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide, or coal tar, which can help reduce flaking and itching.
    • Regular Washing: Wash your hair regularly, ideally every other day or as recommended by your dermatologist. This helps to remove excess oil and dead skin cells from your scalp, reducing dandruff.
    • Scalp Massage: Gently massaging your scalp while shampooing can help loosen flakes and improve circulation, promoting a healthier scalp.
    • Avoid Harsh Products: Limit the use of harsh hair products, such as styling gels and sprays, as they can contribute to scalp irritation and dandruff.
    • Manage Stress: Stress can exacerbate dandruff, so practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.

    • Consult a Dermatologist: If over-the-counter dandruff shampoos and home remedies don’t provide relief, consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and prescription-strength treatments, such as medicated shampoos or topical corticosteroids.
