From treating scalp rashes, removing flaky dandruff to reducing hair fall, neem oil is your answer to just about all your hair care woes. Here are some ways to use neem oil on scalp.

Now, one of the mistakes people tend to do is use neem oil directly onto the scalp. Neem oil is very concentrated, which needs to be diluted to get the right balance to be used on hair. Otherwise, it can do more damage than any good.

And that is precisely why we are here to guide you on the right way to use neem oil. But, before we do so, you need to know exactly what neem oil can do to your hair.

Neem has strong antibacterial and antifungal properties, which remove flaky dandruff, soothe rashes, kill infection-causing bacteria and restore the pH balance of the scalp.

Furthermore, it has a strong amount of triglyceride compound, which reduces hair fall, making your mane more silkier, stronger and shinier.

And it is not just the leaves, but even the bark, stem, fruit, every single part of the neem tree that can give you some incredible benefits.
