Brush often

Brushing increases the circulation in the scalp. It also helps to effectively remove the build-up of dead cells and flakes, thus keeping the scalp clean. Brushing often can thus help you manage dandruff better.

Balance your diet

Diet deficiencies, such as that of zinc or vitamin B may play a role in aggravating dandruff. Having balanced meals, eating more fruits and vegetables and drinking enough water can help to bring dandruff under control. Avoiding meat, sugar, tea, coffee, aerated drinks and junk or processed foods may help.
