- Wash your hair
- Don't make the mistake of thinking that because you have dandruff you should wash your hair less often. The best way to control dandruff is with the regular use of an anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner, such as Dove DermaCare Scalp Pure Daily Care 2in1
- Exfoliate the scalp
- Prepare a homemade sugar scrub for your scalp to combat dry skin that is difficult to hydrate. Just mix a tablespoon of sugar with Dove DermaCare Scalp Dryness & Itch Relief Shampoo and gently massage your scalp with your fingertips. The sugar will gently exfoliate your skin and dissolve completely, leaving no particles
- Let your scalp breathe
- Drop hats are all the rage and very popular, but wearing them all day is not good for dry, oily or dandruff scalp. Let your scalp "breathe" and leave the hats for when you're outside
- Do not scratch yourself
- People with dandruff often complain of intermittent itching, but I always tell my patients not to scratch. Once you start scratching, you will notice dandruff on your clothes. If you're feeling the urge to scratch, I recommend smelling a relaxing essential oil like lavender - the effects of aromatherapy will help reduce stress to resist the urge to scratch your scalp
- Aggressive ingredients
- To combat dandruff aggressively, start by wetting (without soaking) your hair and scalp. Then apply Dove DermaCare Scalp Invigorating Mint Shampoo on the scalp and leave for 5 minutes. After that time, abundantly wet your scalp with water to form an abundant foam before rinsing. The nourishing ingredients provided by the new Dove DermaCare Scalp line will make your hair feel hydrated, soft and healthy, and the prolonged contact of zinc pyrithione with your scalp is excellent for treating dandruff
With the arrival of spring, it is advisable to deeply hydrate our hair since during the winter months it suffered dehydration due to elements such as cold or heating.
Below is Dove Hair dermatologist Dr. Francesca Fusco sharing her tips and tricks on how to get rid of dandruff, while keeping hair soft and healthy.
