I have a Brazilian Keratin Treatment. Is there a dandruff shampoo that is safe to use with this?

I was told that I should avoid shampoo with sodium chloride. I would also like to avoid silicone and SLS/ALS if possible. Any suggestions?I have a Brazilian Keratin Treatment. Is there a dandruff shampoo that is safe to use with this?
Dandruff is often associated with dryness of the scalp. There is however a world of difference between dandruff and flakes of dry skin from ones scalp, but it is no doubt a scalp problem. Medically, dandruff is known as 鈥榩ityriasis鈥?and is a result of 鈥榮eborrhea鈥?which is a disorder of the oil secreting glands of the scalp. Dandruff flakes are greasier than those of dry skin and impart an odor typical of themselves. Those who have dandruff have itchy, irritating scalps, characterized by redness. There are methods of getting rid of dandruff rather than wearing light coloured clothes to hide the while flakes which are almost as embarrassing as snowflakes are beautiful.





The most important thing once you鈥檝e identified dandruff (which is an infection) is to take some precautions to avoid the condition from becoming worse or spreading. If hair products like shampoos, conditioners, etc. are not washed off properly they magnify the ill effects of dandruff. It is also advisable not to share your hair styling tools like combs, hair brushes, rollers, etc if you suffer from dandruff to steer clear from passing it on. Anti dandruff shampoos are a cure for dandruff, but far from a permanent one. The problem returns within a short while of discontinuing usage of the shampoo.





In India, on an average 30 out of 100 males and 50 out of a 100 females are victims of dandruff and consequently of the vicious 鈥榓nti dandruff shampoo cycle鈥?





There are few, but definitely existent ways to get rid of dandruff other than shampoos. One such cure is vinegar. Massage vinegar onto your scalp and leave it for few minutes before washing it off thoroughly. Follow the above procedure and you will see your dandruff start to disappear within a week鈥檚 time. The same steps as above can be carried out using lemon (about half) squeezed in warm hair oil to achieve considerably good results.





Increasing ones intake of salads (mainly raw fruits and vegetables), vitamins B, C and E and zinc ( in the form of foodstuffs rich in these of supplements) and reducing that of fried and dairy foods, nuts and sugar is helpful in reversing the condition of a dandruff affected scalp.





If the above techniques are not helpful, then your problem is more serious than what you are capable of handling on your own and what you need is a dermatologistI have a Brazilian Keratin Treatment. Is there a dandruff shampoo that is safe to use with this?
extra virgin coconut oil is antifunal and microbial... divine for treating dandruff and any kind of uh... fungus or whatever. its also rich in lauric acid with is divine for growing thick, healthy hair (look at the east indians)





make sure what you buy is UNREFINED *extra virgin* coconut oil.... if it does not smell coconutty its not the right kind. I reccomend Nutiva.... low quality coconut oil simply wont do. And as a bonus- you can use it as a skin moisturiser too and its inexpensive.





also be carefull with the keratin.... too much protien can make hair break
