In all the above cases, dandruff may be prevented or cured. Use a shampoo that suits your condition. If the shampoo you initially bought does not make you happy, shop for another one. Change shampoo if you still do not find the right one for you. There are two common brands that work, Selsun Blue and Head and Shoulders. Use them alternately. Try coming up with a regular cycle, so that your scalp will not become habitual to only one active ingredient in the shampoo in use.
