Dandruff is not just a cosmetic defect, but a sign of a malfunction of the body, which is often accompanied by slower hair growth and hair loss. Dandruff appears in people with a wide variety of hair types, but the most severe manifestations of this unpleasant phenomenon are observed in people with oily hair type.
How to get rid of dandruff is described in this article.
Dandruff is one of the cosmetic problems that is most commonly encountered by people around the world. It is not an independent disease, but appears due to certain disorders in the body. Therefore, before you find out how to get rid of dandruff on your head, it is worth identifying the problem that caused it and solving it.
In this article you can find 10 tips on how to get rid of dandruff at home.
Vinegar
Most often, dandruff appears due to bacteria, fungi and yeast that live in the body of every person, which are activated during a certain failure (lack of vitamins, poor diet). An infection occurs and dandruff appears.
How to get rid of dandruff quickly in this case? Vinegar will help, as it kills bacteria and fungus, reduces skin itching due to its acidic component and slows down the peeling process.
Recipe: Apply vinegar to your hair using massage movements, then wrap your head in a towel and leave for 30 minutes. After this, the vinegar must be washed off and your hair washed with shampoo.
1Causes of seborrhea
We have already noted that seborrhea is caused by a fungus. As a result of its effect on the human scalp, the number of dead scales increases. For comparison, in a normal state, head cells are renewed within a month, and after the appearance of seborrheic fungus - in seven days. It is clear that so many scales have nowhere to go, so they stick together and fall off the head in the form of dandruff.
In addition to irritation, seborrhea is characterized by itching. The problem of hair loss arises. If you notice small red spots on your scalp, then you have seborrheic dermatitis. In this case, it is best to seek the advice of a specialist.
You are probably wondering where the problem of itching and dandruff could have come from. There are many factors that provoke seborrhea and itching. We will highlight the main ones:
- severe stress and depression;
- itching and dandruff appear against the background of hormonal imbalances in the body;
- the cause may be poor nutrition or diet;
- Dandruff and itchy scalp are the result of improper hair care.
If symptoms of the disease appear, do not rush to purchase expensive medications. After all, cosmetics for providing “first aid” for itching and dandruff can be found at home.
Yogurt
Firstly, if you drink natural yogurt daily, this will lead to an increase in beneficial bacteria in the body, which will normalize digestive processes, which will lead to the disappearance of dandruff. Secondly, yogurt can be used to prepare a moisturizing antifungal mask for the scalp.
Recipe: mix 150 grams of yogurt and 2 tablespoons of ground black pepper, then rub the scalp with this mixture and leave for 50 minutes. Next, rinse off the mask and wash your hair with shampoo.
Prevention and care of hair and scalp
Preventing skin diseases is easier than treating them. Prevention includes the elimination of stress, high-quality treatment of any pathological processes in the body, and adherence to personal hygiene rules. Shampoos that have an antifungal effect are used as additional care.
Shampoo Panthenol
Panthenol brand shampoos contain dexpanthenol and tar. This substance promotes skin healing, restoration of its natural pH, and normalization of the activity of the sebaceous glands. To prevent seborrhea, it is used once a week. Apply shampoo to damp hair and leave for 5 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
Mirolla Sulsen Forte
Products under the Mirolla Sulsen Forte brand include 4 types of shampoos with different compositions. To treat and prevent dandruff, use:
- Sulsen Forte – with selenium disulfide.
- Sulsen Forte with ketoconazole - for the treatment of dry and oily seborrhea.
- Sulsen Forte with climbazole will help cure seborrhea when selenium disulfide and ketoconazole are ineffective.
- Sulsen Forte with nettle – intended for dry hair. Suppresses fungus, nourishes and strengthens the scalp.
For medicinal purposes, shampoos in this series are used 2 times a week for 1.5–2 months.
Shampoo-tonic Witch Doctor “Dandruff Prevention”
The shampoo contains extracts of burdock and hop cones. It should be used 2-3 times a week. According to reviews, it is effective for the prevention of seborrhea. But it is too weak for treatment. The product from the series is cheap and cheerful.
Removing dandruff is half the battle and cannot be removed in 1 day. Fungal infections are a sign of decreased immunity. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the cause of seborrhea and eliminate it forever. Otherwise it will appear again.
Editor's note. I will share my experience. I recently made an appointment for dandruff and hair loss with Natalya Valerievna Ivanova, a dermatologist-trichologist and cosmetologist. For some reason, girls do not want to contact specialists for reasons unknown to me, preferring to deal with the problem one on one, using home remedies or buying professional shampoos without consulting a specialist. There is no need to reinvent the wheel; it is much more rational to consult a doctor in time and begin treatment after an accurate diagnosis.
During the appointment, the scalp was examined, and trichoscopy (computer diagnostics) was performed, during which the doctor examines the condition of the hair and scalp under a microscope with 150x magnification attached to a computer. During the examination, flakes of dandruff were noted around the hairs, and there were pronounced pink spots on the skin. After which a diagnosis was made - seborrhea of the scalp (seborrheic dermatitis) . To treat seborrhea, the doctor prescribed dermatological shampoo for dry dandruff DUCRAY SQUANORM (3 times a week for 6-8 weeks, leave for 3-5 minutes). Main active ingredient: zinc pyrithione. It also contains GUANIDINE GLYCOLLATE (to improve the exfoliation of scales), glycerin to soften and normalize the pH of the skin and vitamins. You can purchase it both in pharmacies and in various online stores (ozon.ru, beru, wildberries). Its average price is from 703 to 859 rubles.
Olive oil
How to get rid of dandruff and itchy scalp using olive oil: it needs to be heated, because this product when warm is an excellent way to combat dandruff. Olive oil prevents flaking by moisturizing dry areas of the scalp. In addition, it glues small individual dandruff flakes together, thus making it difficult for them to fall out.
Recipe: Olive oil must be heated and rubbed into the scalp every day before bed. To prevent oily hair from staining the bed, you can cover your head with a paper bag, and wash your hair with shampoo the next morning.

Types of dandruff and their differences
There are three types of dandruff, each of which differs in appearance:
- Dry appearance
. The scales look boiling white or light milky. They separate from the scalp easily. The texture is thin and resembles small pieces of paper. This type of dandruff does not make your hair any greasy and looks quite well-groomed. At the same time, the main discomfort is that a person’s aesthetic appearance suffers from pieces constantly lying on his shoulders. Also, sometimes there may be a slight and short-term itching, a slight feeling of tightness after using a hairdryer. - Oily, shiny
. This type of dandruff immediately causes discomfort due to its unattractive appearance. The scales resemble the dry appearance of dandruff, but they seem to be greased. This makes separation more difficult, and a “cloud” of white pieces forms at the roots of the hair. The ends remain normal or dry. - Fatty crusty
. Also an unpleasant type of dandruff, which affects not only the external, but also the quality characteristics of the hair. They become less obedient, tougher, and an unpleasant odor may occur. Due to the dense sebaceous crust, itching, a feeling of tightness, or even a headache may occur. When pressed, it is difficult to separate epidermal particles, causing additional sebum secretion.
Even if the phenomenon does not cause discomfort, you should not delay treatment. Folk remedies for dandruff, which can be prepared at home, can cope with the task at the initial stages.
Important! Often, in the early stages, the cost of treatment is much cheaper, since the duration of the procedures is minimal. However, in the future, if you do not act, you have to spend several times more.
3Types of dandruff and ways to get rid of it
There are two types of dandruff: dry and oily. Depending on this, a folk remedy is selected to treat the problem.
Basically, dry dandruff is characteristic of dry hair. She responds well to treatment. The main thing is to choose an effective method. Oils and moisturizing masks will help eliminate dry peeling. This disruption of the sebaceous glands can be cured with herbs; a decoction of nettle, yarrow, chamomile, burdock (burdock), rosemary.
Excess sebum causes oily dandruff. You can get rid of oily dandruff with apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, alcohol-based infusion, and masks made from vegetables and fruits. Proper use of folk remedies will restore the balance of the scalp and help combat flaking and itching.
Anti-dandruff products
There are 3 groups of anti-dandruff products:
- antimicrobial - those that normalize the excess content of the fungus Pityrosparum Ovale and restore the natural balance of the scalp;
- cytostatic - temporarily slowing down the process of skin cell renewal, giving the skin time to recover;
- Kerolytic - removing dead cells from the surface of the skin. Unfortunately, this group of components has a drawback: they thin the epidermis. In addition, some anti-dandruff products contain a protein complex of minerals that helps increase blood circulation in the scalp. Domestic and foreign companies are constantly looking for new components that help fight dandruff and that do not dry out the skin with frequent washing. Such a component is, for example, zinc pyrithione (ZMT).
