Dandruff! Why you so stubborn?? We all know that dandruff does not discriminate and affects both men and women of any age group. This problem becomes even more annoying during winters when your scalp can become really dry and itchy! Since dandruff is a fungal infection, it flares up during the summers as well (due to the heat and sweat on the scalp). Natural remedies are slow and can get really messy, so I decided to give this hair cream a try!

Dandruff may cause hair fall. This Himalaya hair cream treats flaky and itchy scalp and strengthens the hair, reducing hair fall to a great extent.

Easy to apply, this cream can be applied before and after shampooing for improved results. Just massage the cream gently on the scalp to get a dandruff-free hair. It is better to shampoo hair with Himalaya’s Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. This herbal cream is suitable for all hair types, even on coloured and permed hair.
HOW TO USE?
Massage onto the scalp till it gets fairly absorbed. This hair cream can be used before washing the hair as well as after washing the hair.
MY Experience with Himalaya Herbals Anti-Dandruff Hair Cream
So the claims are pretty impressive. But here’s what I felt – the cream does not really control dandruff! It provides a cooling sensation when applied on the scalp but that is all it does. It has a strong scent and the kind which will linger. It does smell very herbal though. It contains parabens and whenever I apply this on clean hair it weighs them down. It accumulates on the scalp and causes build up which makes the hair even greasier. I also applied it to be left overnight and after the regular wash, I saw no difference.
