Raise your hand if you are okay with those pesky white flakes falling from your head to your shoulders. Bet your hands are firmly by your sides. Dandruff is an annoying but sadly very common hair concern that most people deal with. It is embarrassing and unsightly and no one wants to go through that.
So, if you are struggling with dandruff too and have tried almost every remedy in the book, we have something that might help you. You can use castor oil to banish dandruff from the roots, quite literally. Here is everything you need to know about why and how to use castor oil to get rid of dandruff once and for all.
Castor oil is a natural elixir for your mane. From curbing hair loss and promoting hair growth to eliminating dandruff, it can do it all and give you healthy looking and luscious locks. Packed with antibacterial and antifungal properties, castor oil helps kill bacteria and treat scalp infections. It also nourishes and moisturises your scalp, which reduces flakes and calms itching and irritation. Plus, it helps maintain the pH balance of your scalp as it is full of hair-loving acids such as omega-9 fatty acids and ricinoleic acid.
How to use castor oil for dandruff
Take equal proportions of castor oil andcoconut oilin a bowl according to the length of your hair. Heat the oil mixture and add a few drops of lemon juice in it. Mix well and apply it on your hair from root to tip. Massage your scalp gently and let it sit overnight. Wrap your hair in a bun and sleep. Wash your hair the next morning with an anti-dandruff shampoo such as the Clear Complete Active Care Anti Dandruff Shampoo. Repeat this twice a week for best results. Your dandruff will reduce significantly and your hair will become stronger and healthier with regular use of castor oil.
