11 yo DD dandruff - recommended shampoo?

I just brush the scalp really hard with a bristle brush -- it works.

you might laugh, but what just worked for me was the following.

Mix about 1/4 cup baking soda with about 1.5 cups warm water in the shower, and carefully pour it onto your head, massaging it on your scalp.

Then put 1/4 cup white vinegar into 1.5 cups water and pour that slowly over different parts of your scalp, massaging as you go.

Rinse.

My scalp feels SO much better.

My spouse and I both use the Body Shop's ginger shampoo for dandruff, and one of my kids started using it at age 10-- not every time she shampoos, but one or twice a week. It really helps and it smells great. Expensive, though.

If it is persistent, try any brand dandruff shampoo, but switch brands and try different ones with different ingredients as after a while one type might not be effective anymore. Does she wear a hat? Due to humidity here hats are not a good thing and might make it worse.
