Natural remedies: can olive oil get rid of dandruff?

Many people have tried to get rid of dandruff using olive oil – but does it really work?

People often use olive oil as a moisturising treatment to tackle a dry, flaky scalp.

And while it may give some temporary relief, it doesn’t do anything to tackle the root cause.

Flakes and dry scalp caused by dandruff are the result of a microbe present on everyone’s scalp – Malassezia globosa.

How to really get rid of dandruff

So to get rid of dandruff, don’t just treat the symptoms temporarily with olive oil – tackle the root cause of the irritation.
