Hey dear,you're switching from shampoo to Reetha + Bhringraj powder, that’s a good natural move — but you’ll need to support it with a holistic dandruff-fighting plan for best results.
Natural Treatment Plan for Dandruff & Itchy Scalp:
🌿 1. Hair Wash Routine (2–3x/week)
Use your Reetha + Bhringraj mix, but modify slightly:
Add a pinch of neem powder or a few drops of tea tree oil (anti-fungal)
Soak Reetha powder in warm water for 30 minutes before use
Mix with Bhringraj just before applying
Gently massage scalp, leave for 5–10 minutes, then rinse
Weekly Deep Cleanse (1 time week):Mix 2 tsp Multani mitti,½ tsp neem powder
1 tsp aloe vera gel
Rose water to make paste
Apply to scalp only for 15–20 mins. Rinse with lukewarm water.

Dandruff is a common, non infectious skin disease of the scalp caused due to faster shredding of the dead skin in the lesions.
Dandruff causes as per Ayurveda:
Excess intake of sour tasting foods
Excess Intake of cold water for long
Excess exposure to sunshine
Night awakening
Exposure to dust
Excessive sweating
Suppression of natural urges
Not washing hair regularly
Non application of oil to the scalp People with inherent dry skin also face this problem.
Try to avoid above causes if any of them found
Advice -
local application of coconut oil to scalp at bedtime atleast 5 days in week
Ayurvedic Scurfol shampoo (Atrimed pharma) for hair wast twice a week followed by application of hair conditioner
Tab Saptamrut loha 1 tablet 2 times a day for 20 days
Tab Sukshma Triphala 2 times a day for 20 days
Chandanasav 20 ml with water 2 times a day for 1 month
Hairwash every alternate day

Don't worry,
Along with Reetha and Bhringraj,use Amla too for washing your hair.
And start taking1.Narsimha rasayana 1tsf with lukewarm milk at bed time.
2.Amalki choorna 1tsf with lukewarm water twice in a day.
**Massage your scalp with DHURDHURPATRAADI OIL (for dandruff)
Follow up after 15 days..
