How Can Dandruff On The Scalp Be Removed?

Hi, I have been dealing with dandruff for 2 years now. I went to India, where I was relieved from dandruff by a shampoo called Selsun. Then I left India to go to another country. A month later, dandruff was back again. I have tried using Selsun here as well but after every wash I am left with a patch of dandruff or dry skin at the same part of my scalp. This is indeed very annoying.

Hi,

If you need to get rid of dandruff fast, spray or sprinkle the roots of your hair with dry shampoo, then comb it through your hair to remove dandruff flakes.

You can also warm a small bowl of mineral oil and massage it into your scalp to moisturize your skin and reduce dandruff.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
