Dandruff is never fun. Not only does it leave flakes on your clothing, but it tends to itch and feel uncomfortable. Sometime dandruff shampoo will work, but it is always expensive. You can treat dandruff with Listerine for less money and with better results!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Listerine
Spray Bottle
Your Normal Shampoo and Conditioner

Step 1

Obtain a new spray bottle. They can be purchased at the dollar store or you can get them in the cleaning section of many larger stores. Don't reuse spray bottles!
Step 2

Fill half way with water and half way with the Listerine of your choice. You can use any flavor which will allow you to have a scent you enjoy.
Step 3

Thoroughly spray the roots of your hair with the Listerine water. Gently rub it into the scalp.
Step 4

Let sit for about 15 minutes. You want it to sit there for awhile, but you don't want to have it dry all the way.
Step 5

Wash and condition as usual. It is a good idea to let your shampoo sit for about 10 minutes before rinsing and to give your conditioner a little while to sit as well.
Step 6

Repeat for seven to ten days and your dandruff should be gone. You may or may not need to do this often.
