Bid goodbye to dry and white scalp flakes

There are several ways to tackle dandruff, but one of the most effective ways has always remained the treatment of dandruff with oil. Oil addresses the dryness, reduces flakes, and also deals with bacteria and infections. Oiling also prevents dandruff to make a U-turn and come back with time, as oil treats the strands and the roots. Dandruff could also be a result of dry winters and poor hair hygiene, but the usage of oil on the scalp provides deep conditioning and does the trick. Let’s take a quick look at some of the best essential hair oils that would help you bid goodbye to dry and white dandruff.

2/6

Tea Tree Oil

One of the most powerful antifungal and antibacterial oils caters well to dandruff issues. When mixed with olive or coconut hair oil, a few drops of tea tree oil can produce magic and can noticeably reduce issues of dandruff. You can apply this oil twice a week according to your scalp which also promotes thick hair growth and clear scalp.

Rosemary Oil

If you’re dealing with dandruff and hair fall then rosemary oil is your best call. This active antifungal agent possesses strong qualities and reduces the production of excess oil, dandruff, flake issues, product build-up, and washing away all the impurities. You can use rosemary with jojoba or coconut oil and massage the scalp twice a week depending on your scalp health.

4/6

Coconut Oil

One of the most popular hair care oils used in the Indian market, it is filled with lauric acid and has the ability to penetrate inside our hair shaft, repairing damaged hair and controlling dandruff and flaky details. Coconut oil also prevents the loss of protein and retains moisture which further prevents your scalp from drying out and producing dandruff issues.

Olive Oil

Olive oil penetrates deep into the scalp and is loaded with monounsaturated fats which condition our hair strands and scalp. It strengthens the hair fibre and prevents thinning of hair. It is also very lightweight and moisturises your scalp thoroughly saving you from dandruff and dry scalp issues.

Argan Oil

Argan oil comes from the kernels of trees native to Morocco. Argan oil treats frizzy hair issues, and brittle and coarse hair strands as well. It is great for damaged hair and is loaded with fatty acids that thoroughly condition the hair, and protect the scalp from dandruff, dryness, and white flakes which are caused mainly by dyeing or dirt.
