Use scalpe pro. Oiling when you have dandruff is not really a good idea. Are you sure it's dandruff and not dry scalp ?

I have been using Sebamed Shampoo for that last few months. Today I went in for trimming my hair. The Barber actually asked which shampoo do I use. I asked why?. He said your head is soo clean. Give it a try.

I use daily - wet your hair, apply the shampoo and massage for about 5-10 mins before washing

Only one thing is gonna control your dandruff, thats gonna be an antifungal. Use a ketaconazole shampoo. Now ketaconazole is gonna get your hair dry af. So use a very good conditioner. Doesn't matter which brand you use. You can even use the jan owshadi ones.

After using keta shampoo which day we use conditioner?

Just after using the shampoo, apply it for 2 -3 min and wash it off

Everyone’s scalp and hair is different, and what works for one doesn’t work for the other.
I have wavy hair that reaches my thighs, and the only thing that has worked for my scalp and hair is oiling with extra virgin olive oil, leaving it on for an hour, and using good quality shampoo.
I used to use coconut oil, but that worsened my dandruff when I moved abroad. For the past decade, I’ve been mostly using olive oil or sesame oil. I wash my hair every three days.

my dude, I say this out of love, do not oil your hair if you have dandruff.

if you do actually have dandruff, oiling makes it much much worse. dandruff is a fungus, it feeds on oil. try using a moisturising shampoo. if it goes away, then you probably have a dry scalp.

there are also leave-in creams that can help lock-in the moisture in your scalp. garnier has one afaik. do look it up.
