What is the best Ayurvedic shampoo for dandruff? - #10465
I’ve been dealing with dandruff for a long time, and it’s been incredibly frustrating. The constant itching, flakes falling on my clothes, and even occasional redness on my scalp make it a problem I can’t ignore anymore. I’ve tried multiple anti-dandruff shampoos over the years, but most of them only offer temporary relief. Now, I’m looking for a natural solution, and I’m wondering, what is the best Ayurvedic shampoo for dandruff? I’ve heard that Ayurvedic shampoos are gentler on the scalp and don’t have harsh chemicals like sulfates or parabens. I came across a few options like Patanjali Kesh Kanti Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and other Ayurvedic formulations with neem, tulsi, and bhringraj. Are these ingredients really effective for removing dandruff permanently? Another concern I have is whether these shampoos work for all hair types. I have an oily scalp but dry hair, so I need something that can balance both. Do Ayurvedic shampoos for dandruff also help with moisturizing the hair, or do they focus solely on the scalp? I’ve also read that Ayurvedic shampoos need to be used regularly to see results, but how long does it take? Should I expect improvements within weeks, or is it a slow process? And is there a specific way to use them—like applying them directly to the scalp, diluting with water, or leaving them on for a few minutes before rinsing? If anyone has found the best Ayurvedic shampoo for dandruff, please share your experience. Did it help reduce dandruff completely, or did it just control the symptoms temporarily? Are there any additional remedies you’d recommend combining with the shampoo for better results?
