My Story

I have struggled with Dandruff growing up and even now. Although I have managed to curb the onset of Dandruff, now I still have flakes. I still see flakes on my shoulder when I run my hands through my hair. But not as much. In another blog post, I discuss some of the best shampoos to treat Dandruff. In addition, I have discovered an excellent tea tree shampoo that aids in eliminating Dandruff. You can read more about it here.

However, for me, I would recommend aloe vera. It is so easy to use and natural, and you can never go wrong with going natural.

I have tried applying aloe vera gel to my scalp and left it overnight to treat Dandruff. I have noticed that it does help, and I wanted to pass this discovery on to my readers.

Benefits of Aloe Vera

There are many benefits of Aloe vera, but one of the main benefits that I found was the benefits of aloe vera for Dandruff.

For one, it contains many healthful compounds to treat various ailments. Some of these Ailments that I have found is that aloe vera can improve the health of one’s skin. As you may know, some of the best skin care products contain aloe vera, which is known for soothing and hydrating the skin.

Aloe vera is also great for your gut and can control constipation and gas. In addition, it has antioxidant and antibacterial ingredients and can control blood sugar levels.

As you can see, aloe vera gel has several benefits, and you should incorporate it into your daily regimen.

How to use Aloe vera for Dandruff

The instructions on how to treat Dandruff with aloe vera are straightforward. All you have to do is apply the gel in an applicator bottle to your dry scalp before you go to bed at night. The following day, you should rinse it out with water and continue to wash your hair as usual.

It would be best if you continued with this process, as one application may not be enough. Shoot for using the gel before each wash for a year and notice if there is any improvement over time.

You also have the option to purchase the gel pre-made at your local health food store or department store. You can also make it yourself from the actual aloe vera plant and blend it in a blender to break up the gel after peeling off the outer layer of the plant. After removing the plant’s skin, you will be left with just the gel.

Using Aloe Vera To Style Hair

Another discovery I have made regarding aloe vera is that it can be used to style hair. Aloe vera gel is very similar to hair gel; I have used aloe vera gel to style my hair.

One day I watched a tutorial on how to style your edges. A lovely lady recommended applying aloe vera gel to your edges before applying edge control.

I found that when I used it, it helped to control the baby hairs in my edges and gave an extra hold after applying an edge control. So if you are looking for an excellent method of styling your edges, you should try aloe vera gel.

I like to use the pre-made gel because it is already packaged and ready to be used.

You can also try to make it yourself by blending the plant after slicing off the edges, leaving you with just the gel.

I think that you should try applying aloe vera gel to the edges prior to styling them. You can also use it to style curly hair and tame frizz. I will be trying this on my curly hair in the future.

Conclusion

As you can see, there are several benefits of using aloe vera. In this blog post, I discussed the benefits of aloe vera for Dandruff, which is this blog post’s main topic. I believe that aloe vera is a critical ingredient that can stop Dandruff in its tracks. You can use it and apply it to the scalp and let it penetrate the scalp overnight. The following day you have to wash it out and style your hair as usual. As with any other regimen, you must be consistent, as one treatment may not be enough. I recommend using it for 2- 6 months if you do not wash your hair every week and for one month if you wash your hair weekly.

I also discuss my story of using aloe vera gel. I found aloe vera very resourceful and used it on my edges to style it, which worked wonders. However, aloe vera gel can be expensive to use daily on your edges, and I have since moved on to eco gel. However, I recommend aloe vera gel for your edges to anyone with the budget who wants to try a more natural method to tame those edges.
