In fact, dandruff increases with extreme exposure to both heat and cold. So this problem also increases in winter. There are many shampoos available in the market which claims to clear your dandruff. But we are obsessed to find out 100% natural, effective, most cost effective (thanks to recession) and the simplest solution. Right? So here's what nature offers us.

And your dandruff problem is resolved.
