Boericke & Tafel (B&T) Anti-Dandruff Oil is a specialized homeopathic enrichment oil designed to provide an effective, non-chemical solution for chronic dandruff and scalp irritation. Formulated with a blend of time-tested botanical extracts, this oil works by addressing the underlying fungal and bacterial causes of dandruff. It focuses on the “Pityriasis” condition, where the scalp sheds excessive dead skin cells. The inclusion of Neem (Azadirachta indica) provides powerful natural antiseptic properties, while Lavendula and Chelidonium help soothe the intense itching and redness associated with seborrheic dermatitis. Regular application not only eliminates flakes but also nourishes the hair roots, preventing the dryness that often leads to further scalp shedding.
Key Features
- Utilizes the inherent power of Neem to inhibit the growth of dandruff-causing fungi without harsh chemicals.
- Calms the “burning” and “crawling” sensations often felt with a flaky scalp.
- By clearing the scalp of suffocating flakes, it allows hair follicles to “breathe,” reducing hair fall caused by dandruff.
- Provides a moisture barrier for the scalp skin, preventing the “rebound” dryness often caused by medicated shampoos.
- A gentle homeopathic preparation suitable for long-term use by both adults and children.
Key Ingredients
- Azadirachta indica (Neem)
- Resorcinol
- Lavendula Angustifolia
- Chelidonium Majus
Precautions
- Due to the natural herbal extracts (like Neem), be cautious as the oil may slightly stain light-colored pillowcases or towels.
- While natural, some individuals may be sensitive to Neem. Perform a 24-hour patch test behind the ear before full application.
- If your dandruff consists of very thick, yellow, oily crusts, consult a doctor, as you may require a wash-based treatment instead of an oil-based one.
How to Use
- Comb your hair thoroughly to loosen any existing flakes before applying the oil.
- ake a small amount of B&T Anti-Dandruff Oil and apply it directly to the scalp using your fingertips.
- Gently massage in circular motions for 5–10 minutes. This increases blood flow and helps the homeopathic actives penetrate the skin.
- For best results, leave the oil on for at least 30–60 minutes. For deep therapy, it can be left on overnight.
- Wash off with a mild shampoo (preferably B&T Anti-Dandruff Shampoo) to ensure the flakes are completely removed.
