There are many anti-dandruff shampoos and “remedies” on the market that claim to show you how to cure dandruff. These treatments usually come in the form of shampoos. They do seem to do a fairly good job with controlling dandruff, but they also can cause irreparable damage to the hair follicles because of the toxic ingredients these anti-dandruff shampoos contain.

You just need to know what works and what doesn’t. Below you will find various home remedies to cure dandruff that have been proven to work over and over again, and can be made easily and cheaply.
Fenugreeks seeds home remedy to cure dandruff:
Soak two tablespoons of fenugreek seeds overnight. Grind the seeds into a paste in the morning and apply all over the scalp. Leave the paste on for roughly half an hour. You should then rinse your hair thoroughly with soap nut (Ritha), solution or shikakai. Rinse again with an added teaspoon of fresh lime juice. This prevents dandruff and removes stickiness.
