For Dandruff and scalp :

Dandruff and scalp is one of the main reason for damage caused to your hair like hairfall and split ends and frizz hairs.

Here are some remedies for treating your dandruff and scalp

Firstly take vinegar and boil it and let it cool for some time.

Wash hair with any light shampoo and avoid conditioner after it.
Repeat this on alternate days till you get rid of scalp and dandruff.
You can also use onion juice as it also have same effect.

Hairfall can be due to many reasons like dandruff, stress, unhealthy food habits, menopause etc.

Apply curd before going to shower and leave for some time.
It relaxes and soothes roots of hair and nourishes roots and help stop hairfall.

Oiling- Because of looks we tend to use less or no oil and as a matter of fact it is most important thing to provide nourishment to hairs.
Take oil(coconut preferably) and warm it, then massage it thoroughly on head.
Massage also is known as stress buster as it calms your senses and regulates blood flow in head.
After hour or so, wash your hairs with shampoo.

Use oiling atleast twice a week for best results.

After shampoo, apply conditioner for best results.
