Beat dandruff with this castor oil hair pack

This effective pack can get rid of dandruff in a month.

If your dandruff refuses to go away even after using multiple shampoos, give this natural remedy a try. Using a hair pack made of castor oil on a regular basis can significantly reduce those white flakes. This is because castor oil has antiviral, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties that not just kill infection causing microorganisms but also prevent dandruff from reappearing. It banishes dandruff and also tackles other scalp infections. Here's how to make this pack:

Steps:

• Mix one tablespoon of castor oil with some olive oil so that its viscosity is reduced to some extent.
• To this add the juice of half a lemon.
• Mix all well and then apply it on the scalp.
• Massage it well and let it stay for 30 minutes.
• After this, wash your hair with a medicated or herbal shampoo.

Doing this even once every week will help curb dandruff and within a month you will be dandruff-free. Here are some more remedies for dandruff.
