Neem may help
by: Birgit

Hi Sarfaraz,

I don't know what causes your dandruff, itching and hair loss, so I can not promise that neem oil will fix it, but I think it will help.

It certainly will not do harm.

Don't use neem oil pure. Dilute it 1 in 10 in a carrier oil, for example olive or jojoba or almond. You can use any oil that would also be good for hair and skin.

Then use that oil with neem just as you would use any other hair oil. Massage it into your hair and scalp. Leave it in for a few hours or overnight, and then wash it out.

I have to warn you that the neem smell will remain in the hair for a while.

I put Pure Neem Oil on my scalp last nigh, my head was very itchy and had a lot of dandruff, I will post another comment in a few days to tell how it has worked or not.

I massaged the oil in my scalp and left it on for 5 minutes, then normal shampoo, rinse and blow dried my hair. I feel clean, today I have no dandruff, I will have to check in the week to see if it really worked to let you know. It does smell strong but if it's worth it, I will do it again.

Hi, I'm back after 5 days. I still have dandruff but it did improve. I wash my hair once a week becase it is very dry, maybe washing it twice a week will eliminate the problem completly.
