...for dandruff

This unsightly skin condition is not harmful and is easy to treat at home. Start with an anti-dandruff shampoo.

Choose one containing one of these ingredients: zinc pyrithione, salicylic acid, selenium sulphide, ketoconazole and coal tar. Use for a month to see if your dandruff improves, rinsing well after washing. Brush hair regularly using steady, firm strokes from the scalp down, to carry the oil away. Stress can worsen the condition so try relaxation techniques too.
