Treat scalp dryness – One of the major risk factors for getting dandruff is a dry scalp. One good treatment is to apply non-sticky and good oil on your hair to prevent the scalp from drying by helping preserve moisture in the scalp. The scalp is more likely to become dry during winter season and cold weather so you may want to apply oil on your scalp daily during these types of weather.
Avoid or cut down using hair products – Sticky hair creams, gels and other hair styling products are unhealthy for the scalp especially when they are used everyday and a for long time. If you cannot give up using these products greatly reduce their use if you want to lessen your dandruff problem. These products spur the growth of fungus in your scalp and make you quite vulnerable for developing dandruff.

Keep shampooing – In order to rid of foreign objects remaining in your scalp and hair and to maintain their neatness and cleanliness, you need to shampoo your hair every day. To accomplish this, you need a good anti-dandruff shampoo to clean your hair and scalp help eliminate dandruff.
If the shampoo you are using has stopped being effective or is not really effective, replace it with a more effective one immediately.
