Itchy Scalp With Recurring Dandruff, No Home Remedies Worked. Permanent Remedy ?
I am 25 years old female with good eating habits. Inspite of taking head wash every alternative day I have an itchy scalp and the dandruff keeps recurring. I have tried home made remedies like using curd,pepper and lemon and also nizoral shampoo but the dandruff still keeps occuring. Can you please suggest a permanent remedy?
