Use oil massage on scalp whenever you wash hairs. Apply ketoconazole 3 time in a weak, not use any other shampoo and only one oil whatever you want like almond oil, coconut oil, olive oil or sesame oil.

Hi effective method to treat dandruff would be to combine 2 tablespoons of fresh apple juice with 2 tablespoons of warm water. Dab this on the hair and keep it for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. Do this for once or twice a week to cure dandruff. Apply ketoconazole lotion on your scalp once in a week.
