I am soooooooooo happy! For the last few weeks I have changed my wash routine slightly and all my dandruff has gone!!!
The difference seems to be Peppermint oil and Jojoba oil:
SE told me to try the peppermint oil, and the Jojoba was half price on offer so i just happened to try it.
I wash twice a week using the baking soda soak and acv rinse, and I add these essential oils to both: 20 drops of rosemary, 20 drops of lavender, 5 drops of tea tree and now 5 drops of peppermint.
Then after I have rinsed everything out I have been applying a few drops of jojoba oil in the partings where you can see my scalp, using my fingertips, and being careful not to use too much. The first time I tried it I did another rinse, but since then i've not rinsed the jojoba out and just let my hair dry, and both ways seem fine.
All the dandruff is gone! I did another wash minus the jojoba and had mild dandruff afterwards, so went back to applying it and it's gone again.
I've not noticed any problems with my dreads so far (they don't seem oily or too soft and conditioned) but that may be because of my hair type, and I'm not sure if people with different hair might find applying the jojoba every wash too much and it might undo baby dreads etc, but I wanted to share the fact that after 5 months of awful dandruff mine is GONE!!
