These tenacious flakes may be found in your hair or on your shoulders. We bet you've done everything under the sun to treat it/get rid of it/be free of it, but before we treat dandruff, we'll have to delve deeper into the technicalities to better understand it and get rid of it once and for all!

So, clear up the mess and read this!

Symptoms and Signs of Dandruff-

While normal itching and flaking indicate dandruff at the initial stage only. However, there are many other signs and symptoms as well that point towards stubborn dandruff.

• Scaly/crusty scalp

• Yellow/reddish bump buildup on scalp verticals

Tips to Prevent Dandruff Naturally in Winters-

Although the root cause of dandruff is usually too try or too oily scalp. However, there might be other general causes as well. So, here’s how to keep dandruff away in winter at home!

• Brush Sufficiently for Stimulation

Stimulating the scalp stimulates blood circulation, which increases oil secretion, and keeps the hair and scalp healthy. A well-nourished scalp suggests a flakes-free scalp.

• Maintain Hydration Levels

During the winter, we frequently forget to drink water, which dehydrates the skin and hair and contributes to increased dandruff. The typical daily water consumption restriction is set at 5 liters, but if it's too chilly, you can reduce it to 4 liters!

• Be Mindful of Eating A Balanced Diet

Changing your diet is one technique to get rid of dandruff. Vitamin B, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids are all great sources of nutrition for your hair and scalp. Consume fruits and raw salads as part of your diet. These nutrients are abundant in eggs, salmon, bananas, and spinach.

• Fenugreek & Apple Cider Vinegar for the Hacks

Soak fenugreek (methi) seeds in water overnight. Make a paste out of them. Leave the paste on your scalp for about half an hour. Rinse well with water. After shampooing, make a mug of water with two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar and use it as a last rinse. Either, you can use a shampoo that has either or both the miraculous ingredients for kicking out dandruff from the scalp.

To The Bottom Line-

To protect yourself from the elements in really cold weather, you typically wear a woolen cap or keep your hood up.

Wrapping up warmly, on the other hand, can lead you to sweat more, making your hair appear oilier than usual. Waxy oils from your scalp become fluid at warmer temperatures and flow further down your hair with sweat, making the roots appear greasy.

It can also increase your chances of getting dandruff since the warmer, more humid microenvironment formed around your scalp is ideal for dandruff-causing microorganisms to thrive.

You don't have to stop being warm if you follow the above-mentioned tips, thankfully.
