Before I take the time to tell you how to get rid of common dandruff, here's a related question: If coconut oil is made from coconuts, is baby oil made from babies?
Some humor aside, we only need to treat our scalps like we treat the scalps of babies. I'm talking about "cradle cap" (or as my wife likes to say, cradle crap). Instructions for all non-babies to follow a brief respite.
If you suffer from the heartbreak of eczema, seborrhea, psoriasis, or even an invasion of a species in the process of rapid evolution requiring the active ingredient of selenium sulfate to defeat, then by all means buy the "Head & Shoulders Intensive Treatment" dandruff shampoo.
For the rest of us, any brand of baby oil will get rid of common dandruff. You know, the kind that's nothing more than flakes from a dry scalp? The procedure is simple:
- Massage baby oil into hair and scalp until hair is fairly wet.
- Remove patches of dry skin by massaging, not by scraping.
- Let baby oil soak for about 30 minutes.
- Wash hair and scalp with almost any non-medicinal shampoo.
- Let dry and comb.
This procedure helps to keep dandruff to an absolute minimum, but it isn't a cure. There is no cure. Dry scalp conditions can and will reappear from time to time. Just use baby oil to once again get rid of common dandruff.

Dandruff shampoos are fantastic to use on all kinds of scalp conditions. They help to clean the scalp of dry skin and contain anti inflammatory properties which help to reduce the itching and redness as well. Really great for treating infant eczema.

Many of us will get dandruff or a flaky scalp just from over-use of shampoos with harsh chemicals that irritate the skin. Simply skipping the shampoo for a day and massaging the scalp with some baby oil or other oil is a great idea.
