If your scalp is itching and flaking, you can substitute dandruff shampoo with apple cider vinegar. In test-tube studies, apple cider vinegar destroyed fungus, according to the Microbiological Research. Yale dermatologist Mona Gohara says that the vinegar can effectively kill yeast on your scalp.

Apple cider vinegar can also relieve scalp itching and irritation. “Apple cider vinegar also has natural anti-inflammatory properties, so it also calms while it prevents yeast overgrowth,” Gohara told Cosmopolitan. To use it, mix one part of vinegar with five parts of water. Otherwise, the acidity could harm your hair.
