Brilio.net - Dandruff is a scalp condition characterized by excessive exfoliation of the skin. Even though dandruff is not dangerous for your health, this problem makes you feel uncomfortable.
Remembering dandruff flakes that fall on clothes, especially black, can disturb your appearance. Even dandruff also causes your scalp to itch. It's not surprising that a number of people are looking for ways to treat dandruff.
But before treating dandruff, you need the source of this scalp problem. This step in knowing the cause of dandruff is important, so that you don't experience a similar problem again.
Well, one of the main causes of dandruff is seborrheic dermatitis, a condition that causes the skin to become oily, red and scaly. Oily scalp tends to flake more easily and produce dandruff flakes. This disease can also affect other areas rich in oil glands such as the face, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids and chest.
Another cause comes from the Malassezia fungus which usually lives on everyone's scalp. In some people, this fungus can multiply excessively and cause irritation to the scalp. This irritation triggers scalp cells to regenerate faster than usual, and these dead skin cells then flake off as dandruff.
Another factor comes from hair hygiene that is not maintained properly, such as never washing it. Not washing your hair regularly can cause a buildup of oil and dead skin cells on the scalp, which can trigger dandruff. Washing your hair with the right frequency helps keep your scalp clean and free of buildup.
So that your scalp is free from dandruff, the first step you need to take is to carry out regular care. One of them is optimizing the use of shampoo with natural ingredients , as did YouTuber @Pihuofficial08.
In an upload on his YouTube channel, he appears to be optimizing shampoo by combining it with three kitchen ingredients, namely neem leaves, garlic, turmeric powder and lime. Neem leaves have antifungal and antibacterial properties that are effective against the Malassezia fungus, the main cause of dandruff.
Neem has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce irritation and itching of the scalp. Neem helps cleanse the scalp of dirt and excess oil, which can trigger dandruff.
Garlic has antimicrobial properties that can help treat scalp infections that cause dandruff. The allicin content in garlic has anti-inflammatory properties which help reduce irritation and itching.
Curcumin in turmeric and citric acid in lime help get rid of dandruff.Turmeric contains curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce inflammation of the scalp. Turmeric also has antifungal and antibacterial properties that help fight scalp infections. Turmeric helps improve overall scalp health, which can prevent dandruff.
The citric acid in lime helps reduce excess oil production on the scalp, which can trigger dandruff. The antifungal properties of lime help fight fungal infections that cause dandruff. Lime helps cleanse the scalp of dead skin cells and dirt that can cause dandruff.
