Gone are the days when you would allow the tiny flakes of dandruff to make you feel self-conscious. Before the white flakes steal your confidence away, you need to put an end to them for good. What if I told you that the anti-dandruff solutions are hidden inside your house? So now is the time to bring home remedies into the spotlight!
The need for haircare hits us only when an itchy scalp would rain dandruff on black dresses akin to snowy flakes during Christmas. While you are far away from the salon, your hair is screaming for attention and care it deserves. So, why not channel some grandmotherly advice and dig around your kitchen for natural hair care ingredients?
Sometimes, making the use of natural ingredients can really do the trick and might be an effective solution for your hair type. But before getting into nature's goodness, let's find out the root cause of dandruff.
What causes dandruff?
Dandruff, although harmless, is a chronic condition that arises when the scalp gets dry or sweaty, and generates white flakes of dead skin. Skin cells cluster together and emerge as white flakes as a result of oil from the scalp. Dry skin, sensitivity to hair products, and skin diseases like seborrheic dermatitis or eczema are all potential causes of dandruff. Dandruff can also be caused by an overgrowth of a yeast-like fungus.
The flakes loitering around your scalp can be itchy, but scratching it can induce scalp irritation, which can make the problem worse.
Natural ingredients to look out for:
So, to avoid your cheeks turning red with embarrassment when someone spots the uninvited white flakes clinging onto your hair, try these natural ingredients that will work wonders for a dandruff-prone scalp.
Coconut Oil:
Who knew the most-wanted member of the kitchen can also be proven effective to treat dandruff! The moisturising qualities of Coconut oil are promising. It can be used to treat dandruff and dry skin at the same time. Coconut oil is applied to the scalp to nourish it, stimulate hair growth and significantly reduce dandruff. It has the potential to offer more than one benefit for people with dandruff.
Coconut oil can relieve pain and inflammation, which can bring down the itchiness caused by some skin conditions. To your rescue, shampoos such as the MegaGrowth Anti-Dandruff Shampoo, include the richness of coconut oil and effectively eliminate dandruff. Uniquely formulated with an active ZPTO system, this shampoo can help get rid of flakes, itching, and keep the scalp clean and healthy when used fortnightly.

Plant extracts have been proven to be a saviour for thousands of years and guess what? They can be as effective to even treat dandruff in contemporary times!
In addition to dandruff, Tea tree oil can help with various ailments including hair fall. We repeatedly punish our innocent locks using colour treatments, heat tools and chemical products. That's when the goodness of Tea tree oil can save the day. Small quantities of diluted tea tree oil applied down the hair shaft can help prevent chemical build-up and dead skin. Regardless of your hair texture, the Megagrowth Anti-Dandruff treatment with Tea Tree Oil shields against dandruff-related issues by contributing to the dismissal of the dandruff-causing fungus and essentially, getting rid of itchiness.
Menthol:
When you hear the word menthol, you immediately think of the freshness and coolness it conjures up! The cooling infusion of peppermint and menthol crystals helps to relieve itchy scalp caused due to dandruff.
What's better than an ingredient that wards off dandruff and also renders a cooling sensation? It's time to add menthol to your hair care regimen, and one way to do it is using MegaGrowth Anti-Dandruff Spray. It contains a 2% active Salicin system that starts working on your hair right away.
