"Because there's nothing as unflattering as stray flakes on your lapel."
Chances are, since we’re almost a month into fall, you’ve already found yourself reaching for your darker suits over the sunnier options you sported in the summer. Honestly, we couldn’t be more on board. But here’s the rub: An untended-to dandruff problem will stand out hundredfold against the backdrop of these seasonally subdued hues.
No doubt you’ve seen it before, a galaxy of white spots stretching across the shoulders of an otherwise well-suited, put-together gentleman. And that’s a damn shame, especially since a flaky scalp is so easily treatable. All you need is a little direction—and the right tools—to get the skin on top of your head back in order and stop yourself from looking like a snow globe full of dandruff.
Wash Daily, Wash Hard: Just like everywhere else on your body, your head sheds dead skin all the time. Cut the issue off at the source by massaging your scalp vigorously every time you shower (i.e. every day, hopefully), ridding yourself of stray bits that could end up as dandruff later.
Switch Up Your Shampoo: The moment your first flakes make their appearance, get your shampoo game on point. Go the defence route and try out the classic ingredient to banish dandruff – Reetha. A powerful defence formulation loaded with the antibacterial benefits of reetha that research has shown to be among the most effective ways of dealing with dandruff. And as a bonus, this dandruff control shampoo and conditioner also contains Neem, Amla and Lime Oil that keep your scalp healthy, adds volume to your thinning hair and restore its moisture content. How awesome is that?
Pro Tip 1: Try to Relax - You know how stress has been linked to basically everything, from acne, to hair loss, to heart disease? Well, turns out it can also lead to your hair looking like a winter wonderland.
Pro Tip 2: Fat Fuel - Research suggests that dandruff may be caused by an omega-3 fatty acids deficiency. Good sources of omega-3 include fatty fish like salmon and tuna. If you’re not a fish fan or are looking for a more convenient source, consider an omega-3 supplement for men.
A flaky scalp is so easily treatable. All you need is a little direction—and the right ingredients in your shampoo—to get the skin on top of your head back in order and stop yourself from looking like a snow globe!
