Dandruff

As far as dandruff goes- it is something I have had for as long as I can remember. Though the only times I am able to get a handle on it is when I use Melaluca "original shampoo". Some thing I learned in beauty school is that the store brands of dandruff shampoo actually contain tar. The tar acts as a sealent to the dandruff creating symptoms very similar to a babies "craddle cap".

A lot of times people don't have dandruff, but product build up instead. Melaluca or "tea tree oil" is a natural solvent that disolves the build up. It is also moisturizer, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal. Eucalyptus and any of the mint oils help with dandruff. Melaluca the company sells a product called Original Shampoo. I buy it in the 32 oz size- just the most economical. It is 24.50 for people who aren't members and $16.99 for people who are (about $30 for a membership fee- I can show you how to sign up if your interested). It really is the best thing I have ever found. Then, when you get this shampoo, If you think its not working- you can go to a co-op and purchase a good quality eucalyptus and mint oil and add them to your shampoo. The only thing that I have found that comes close to Melalucas shampoo is Paul Mitchells Tea Tree shampoo(economy size 17 oz for $30). It is not as good, but it is the closest second I have ever found. I have tried every store shampoo with tea tree and never found one that works.
