Three Ways To Stop Dandruff

Dandruff is a condition that is characterized by an itchy scalp that results in flakey residue. While we can all agree that dandruff sucks, more importantly, here are the three top ways to stop dandruff for good. The first important step in preventing dandruff is to eat a healthy, balanced diet. Consuming enough zinc, Omega-3 acids and B Vitamins will all help promote healthier hair. Be sure to avoid eating excessive yeast and sugar. Studies suggest that dandruff is partially caused by a fungus that thrives in yeasty environments. Another important way to stop dandruff is to limit your use of hair styling products and be careful about the ones you choose to invest in. Also, seek out a shampoo designed specifically to treat and stop dandruff. Read 8 Best Dandruff Shampoos for a list of dandruff fighting shampoos that Total Beauty readers swear by.

Excessive hairspray, gel, and heavy mousses can contribute to dandruff in some people, and they also cause excessive drying of the skin which leads to flaking. In order to stop dandruff in its tracks, be sure to monitor how your scalp reacts after using a new product. If you notice itching or any other severe allergic reaction, stop using the product immediately. Finally, wash your hair regularly but not every day. Doing so will dry out your hair and only encourage your scalp to produce more oil. Check out 11 Best Oily Hair Remedies for more tips on how to deal with oily hair and keeping the dandruff at bay.
