Many home remedies for Dandruff are indicated at Home-Remedies-for-you.com website, which you may have already seen.
From ayurvedic texts Charaka Samhita, Susruta Samhita,
Astanga Hrdaya, and Chakradatta, dandruff is termed DARUNAKA which in severe cases may cause hair loss.
Author use a mixture of following powders:
Aamla, Trifla, Neem-leaves, Methi (Fenugreek seeds), Aritha, Jaswanti.
Make this mixture, take 4 tsp in a cup, add 2 tsp curd, juice of half lemon fruit and a little
water to make a medium consistency paste. Apply this paste at roots
of hair and leave it to dry for 30 minutes, or till its action is
felt. Wash hair with luke warm water. Do this thrice a week and do
not use any other soap, shampoo, oil. No herbal shampoo is
purely 'herbal' if it causes lather. In ayurveda there is nothing
which causes lather. The paste described here takes care of dandruff
and also make hair smooth, long, thick and shining. Gray will not
turn to black, however. Jaswanti and Aamalaki help in stopping the hair fall. However, hair loss can also be due to other reasons, such as stress or excess DHT hormone.
Most of the herbs described here can be obtained under the same names from online pharmacies.
Vinay, your age and name suggests this. Dandruff is similar to psoriasis in one respect. With stress, the flare up recurs. if you are looking for long term relief you must check your life style. There must be something wrong with it (daily routine, diet, diet pattern, diet time-style, sleep hours, sleep pattern
etc....plus your stress and psychological factors).
Some more suggestions:
Sesame oil nourishes and feeds the scalp to control dry scalp dandruff and to kill dandruff causing bacteria.
Use of fenugreek in Dandruff and for relieving itching, aiding hair
growth is due to its promoting better circulation by opening
channels of the body and support the flushing of toxins via the skin,
giving cooling property and reducing insulin resistance.
Bhringaraj oil reduces dandruff, removes old hair and grows fresh hair. The pores in the scalp open due to this oil.
Neem oil is also useful, as it reduces itching and hair loss by reducing pitta. Pitta is a result of less sleep from stress-anxiety.
