    #HealthBytes: 5 natural home-remedies to treat dry scalp

    Causing persistent itching, dry scalp can be downright irritating. And that's not all, it can also lead to dandruff, soreness, and even hair loss. Dry skin is mainly caused due to weather changes, harmful hair products, or improper hair care, among other reasons. Although cosmetic treatment is available, natural home-remedies should be given the first try. Here are 5 home-remedies to treat dry scalp.

    Tea tree Oil

    The reason why many shampoos feature tea tree oil on their ingredients list is that its amazing antiseptic, antifungal and antibiotic properties are highly effective in treating dry scalp, and related symptoms. It is advisable to use shampoos that contain tea tree oil as an active ingredient, on a regular basis. You can also use it to massage your scalp, to get relief.

    Coconut oil

    Coconut oil is widely recommended for its great skin-health benefits. It can effectively help treat scalp dryness, and reduce risk of infections, thanks to its antibacterial and anti-fungal qualities. For treating dry scalp, take some melted coconut oil, and massage it over your hair and scalp. Wash off, after 10 minutes. Apart from checking scalp dryness, it will also make your hair silky smooth.

    Apple cider vinegar

    A natural anti-microbial, Apple cider vinegar can help kick out bacteria or fungi that might be causing itchiness. Its anti-inflammatory qualities will exfoliate your scalp, thereby relieving you from dry scalp. In order to cure dry scalp, mix ACV with water (1:2 ratio), and apply directly to the scalp. Let it sit for five minutes, then wash with your regular shampoo and conditioner.

    Aloe vera gel

    Aloe vera's natural anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties can significantly help reduce dry scalp symptoms. There are many ways to reap the amazing skin health benefits of aloe vera. You can either apply some aloe vera gel to your scalp, and wash it after ten minutes, to cure dry scalp, or you can take oral aloe vera supplements. Drinking aloe vera juice can also help.

    Eggs and yogurt

    On one hand, yogurt's exfoliating properties can be soothing for the skin, while the fat and protein content of eggs can help nourish the scalp, and protect it against free radical damage. Mix a well-beaten egg with a few tablespoons of plain yogurt in a bowl. Use this mix to massage into your hair and scalp. Finally, wash off your hair after ten minutes.
