Coconut Oil Scalp:
Your Natural Approach to a
Dandruff- and Itch-Free Scalp

I used to suffer from itchy scalp and dandruff. Believe me. I know the discomfort and embarrassment it brings.

Only medicated shampoos were effective enough in controlling the itchy white flakes. But I also knew that these shampoos contain harsh chemicals. So I had to find a naturally safe solution to my problem.

Just when I’m about to accept my life of head scratching, I came across a six-month old bottle of virgin coconut oil (VCO). And the rest, as they say, is history.

Just within a day of using coconut oil, the itchiness was 80 percent gone and the dandruff, about 50 percent. It took just 3 days to get rid of the constant scratching and a little over a week for the scurf to virtually disappear.

Coconut oil is so effective against dandruff and irritation because it contains medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) that are very capable of killing harmful microbes, specifically fungi and parasites.
