Is there such a thing as infectious dandruff? Can you get rid of itchiness and flaking with an old-fashioned mouthwash like amber Listerine?
A treatment regimen with an antifungal compound such as miconazole or thymol found in Vicks and Listerine can ease seborrheic dermatitis and beard flakes.
Soaking the hair in old-fashioned amber Listerine before washing it can often alleviate an itchy scalp. The herbal oils in Listerine discourage skin yeast.
Herbal oils in household products as well as herbal teas can be helpful in controlling the itch and flakes of dandruff.
