Applying ginger to your hair is a rejuvenating experience for sure. Here are a few ways to incorporate ginger in your haircare routine

1. Ginger Juice Treatment

This spice is packed with antiseptic and anti fungal properties and using ginger is very beneficial in getting rid of even the most stubborn dandruff. Ginger juice improves blood circulation and regulates your ph level. You can extract the juice by blending in a blender or food processor and straining the liquid with a muslin cloth.

The juice can then be applied with a cotton ball to scaly patches and dandruff on the scalp.
