The fix: Keep flakes under control
Dandruff is a scalp disorder that involves rapidly shedding dead skin cells.
To slow down cell turnover and fight dandruff, I'd recommend a ginger root scalp spritzer: ginger has anti-inflammatory properties to soothe the scalp and keep dandruff in check.
Finely grate half a ginger root into two cups of water and boil until it’s one cup of tea. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice and olive oil. Mist the brew directly onto scalp, let dry, and shampoo out.
