HELLO, For High porosity hair + dry itchy dandruff (4 weeks) You need deep nourishment + scalp pacification + gentle cleansing In Ayurveda, this is mainly vata-pitta imbalance (dryness , itching, flaking) 1) HAIR OIL (most important step) Hair porosity hair loses moisture quickly.

Namaste, Since your dandruff is recent (1–4 weeks) and your scalp is dry and itchy with high porosity hair, the main focus should be scalp balance and proper moisture. First, avoid very harsh or strongly fragranced shampoos. Use a mild herbal or gentle sulphate-free shampoo 2–3 times a week. Do not wash hair daily unless necessary. For oiling, apply warm coconut oil or sesame oil lightly on the scalp 30–45 minutes before washing. If itching is more, you can add a small amount of neem oil to coconut oil and use once or twice weekly. Do not keep oil overnight if dandruff is active. Since your scalp is dry, avoid very hot water for head bath. Use lukewarm water only. For high porosity hair, focus on conditioning. After shampoo, use a light natural conditioner like aloe vera gel (fresh or pure form) on hair length, not on scalp. This helps reduce dryness and frizz. Also: Avoid scratching the scalp. Avoid excessive chemical treatments or heat styling. Drink enough water and include nuts and seeds in diet. If dandruff continues beyond 3–4 weeks or becomes severe with thick flakes, then a scalp evaluation may be needed to rule out fungal infection or seborrheic dermatitis. With gentle care and regular routine, scalp dryness and dandruff usually improve gradually.
