is alum good for hair - #25905

Lucy

I am really confused about my hair lately! I've been struggling with excessive dandruff and some hair fall, and my friend mentioned that is alum good for hair? I’ve never tried it, but I’ve heard it can help with scalp issues. Last week, I stumbled upon this DIY hair mask recipe online using alum. It sounded interesting, so I thought maybe I’d give it a shot. But then, I started doubting whether using alum might actually make things worse? It's like I read mixed reviews—some say it’s great for controlling oil and reducing itchiness, while others warn that too much can be harsh. I tried other natural remedies like tea tree oil, but honestly, nothing seems to work like they say. My hair feels kinda limp and lifeless, which doesn't help my mood! If I use alum, how often should I apply it? I do not want to overdo it and damage my scalp. Can you guys share your thoughts on whether is alum good for hair? Also, any tips on how to incorporate it into my routine without messing things up further?
