"Hi my name is Lauren and I'm here to discuss how to cure beard dandruff. Beard dandruff is usually your lower grade form of dandruff called pityriasis. It's just a little bit of white flaking, maybe some itchiness, usually just a sensitivity with your skin. There are very few easy ways that you can stop your dandruff. Ultimately it's the same concept as when you have dandruff on your scalp. You're going to want to maybe use a dandruff shampoo which usually has one percent of pyrithium zinc in it, which actually will get rid of dandruff. You can use that and just simply wash your beard when you're in the shower, wherever the case may be, so that way you can also treat where you're getting dandruff in your beard. A few home remedies would be to use boiled water with tea leaves and lime. What you would do is let that water sit and cool and you would sieve out all of the tea leaves and the lime and you would simply place that mixture just like on your face and just on your beard. You can also use hot tea tree oil, you want to do something that'll kind of help with the skin, tea tree is very good for the skin. And you're going to want to watch also what you're eating, because you're going to have to eat very well balanced, and you're going to want to watch your stress level. If you use a shampoo formulated for dandruff and if you maybe use one of the few treatments, of the home remedy treatments that you can get, plus watch your stress level and make sure you have a well rounded diet, that is one way that you can help and control your dandruff on your beard. Another good thing is that transitionally our hair and our scalp changes throughout the seasons, so what may happen in the fall may not happen in the spring. And that is one good way to cure beard dandruff."
