Simple trick for preventing dandruff/itchy scalp May 29, 2006
Posted by Joe in : Genius Advice , trackback
We all get it every now and then. Its no big deal. But it is irritating, and sometimes noticeable. You might buy Head and Shoulders or other dandruff-targeting shampoos and/or conditioners, but the truth is, most of us can kick it without buying anything.
The secret? Cold water. Stop taking hot showers! The hot water dries the scalp out rapidly, and it also washes away the good properties of your conditioner that help moisten the hair and scalp.
You also need to make sure you don’t live in too humid of conditions. If your bedroom or living room (whereever you spend a lot of time) is too humid, get a dehumidifier. Combining a cool, dry environment with a cool shower will get rid of and prevent dandruff, as well as take away those irritating itches.
The process might take a week or two, but it works. The water doesn’t have to be freezing, of course, but anything luke-warm or cooler is best.
