Revizuirea șampoanelor anti-mătreață

Any woman can develop such a nuisance as dandruff. The cause is most often a lack of vitamins or improper care. To get rid of flaky particles, you usually buy a special shampoo.

How to choose an anti-dandruff shampoo

All medicated shampoos that can successfully fight dandruff are divided into several types. These include:

• Antifungal shampoos with ketoconazole.
• Exfoliating shampoos that contain scrubbing particles, as well as salicylic acid and sulfur.
• Antibacterial shampoos eliminate fungal skin lesions using zinc pyrithione or octoprirox.
• Natural shampoos based on plant extracts containing tar.

When choosing a medicated shampoo, you must also take into account the type of hair. A note about what type of hair this shampoo is suitable for must be indicated on the packaging.

Before purchasing an anti-dandruff detergent, you need to make sure of its quality. A good shampoo must have a thick consistency. It should not have strong fragrances. Pay attention to the composition. Therapeutic shampoo will definitely contain sulfur, zinc and tar. These components may be present all together or only one of them may be present. In addition, the ingredients should include plant extracts of medicinal herbs, oil extracts of plants, as well as ingredients that normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands. These include ichthyol, tar, keratoregulators, miconazole and other substances.

Rating of anti-dandruff shampoos

Unfortunately, the choice of shampoos that do not just rinse well dandruff from the scalp, but really treat it, not too wide. All these products can be purchased exclusively in pharmacies. Dermatologists rank among the best:

• Shampoo "Nizoral" with the active ingredient ketoconazole. This substance copes well with a variety of microorganisms that cause dandruff. The consistency of Nizoral is thick and uniform, which allows you to apply it to your hair and perform other hygienic procedures while waiting for the required five minutes to pass and the shampoo to take effect. In addition, this product copes well not only with dandruff, but also with other diseases of the scalp, for example, it effectively treats seborrhea and lichen.

• Another good shampoo that works against various types of dandruff is called Algopix. This shampoo contains salicylic acid and birch tar, which perfectly fight fungus and degrease the epidermis of the head, which does not allow the fungus to multiply. Algopix protects a person from the risk of recurrence of the disease, thanks to its antibacterial and antimycotic properties. It is recommended to use it in cases where, in addition to dandruff, there are other problems with the scalp. The inconvenience of using Algopix is ​​that it needs to be kept on the hair for as long as 10 minutes. In addition, its aroma is quite unpleasant and does not dissipate for a long time.

• Sulsen shampoo, the list of ingredients of which contains selenium disulfide, simultaneously normalizes the secretion of the sebaceous glands, regulates the regeneration cycle of dermal cells and does not allow the fungus to reproduce and grow normally. As a result of this triple effect, it is possible to quickly defeat the fungus and eliminate dandruff. In addition, for a good result, it is enough to keep the shampoo on your hair for only 3 minutes. Sulsena also has disadvantages. These include an unpleasant odor and exposure to only one type of pathogenic fungus. Therefore, if there is no result from washing your hair with Sulsena, you must use other means.

DIY anti-dandruff shampoo

Nowadays, many women prefer everything natural, including cosmetics. It is believed that such products are safer and more effective; only high-quality and natural raw materials are used for their production. They bring only health benefits, at the same time they treat, nourish and restore the epidermis of the head. When preparing medicinal shampoo yourself, you can select the components individually depending on your needs and your own preferences.

The disadvantages include, first of all, the fragility of such cosmetics. Therefore, you have to prepare a new portion of medicated shampoo every two to three days.

Making homemade anti-dandruff shampoo is quite simple. To do this, mix 50 ml of soap base, the same amount of boiled water, add half a small spoon oils olives, a pinch of ground cloves, a large spoon of apple cider vinegar and 3 large spoons of fresh apple juice. Beat all ingredients with a hand mixer for a minute.

When using homemade shampoo, distribute it over damp hair and intensively massage the scalp for two minutes, and then rinse with water. The finished portion of the product can be stored in the refrigerator for three days, so we do not recommend that you prepare a lot of shampoo at once. After the first use, a significant improvement may occur and dandruff will disappear. However, to consolidate the result, you need to wash your hair with this shampoo for another two weeks.
