Plus, what dandruff is not, are both very important to know.

If you have a dry scalp, and you shampoo too much or use the wrong kind of shampoos, then it can just exacerbate the dandruff.

I used witch hazel and it worked very quickly. I rubbed it into my scalp after washing and left it in to dry. I did this 3 times in a week, I also cleaned my hair brush with witch hazel and changed the pillow cases each time. I haven’t had a problem since!
