When you want thick and beautiful hair, you also need to ensure that you're taking good care of your scalp. Unless you maintain the condition of your scalp, things can get bad for you and fast. These scalp issues can make your hair super greasy, can add dandruff flakes to your scalp, can lead to split ends and can even cause itchiness. So if you're looking for remedies to help keep your scalp infection-free, here are some that will help.

Lemons: Lemons also work as natural antiseptics when it comes to treating infections. They can help balance the pH levels in your hair and can get rid of bacteria and fungus. Just add 4-5 tbsp lemon juice to 1 cup of water and then after you're done shampooing your hair, run this mixture through your scalp. Leave it on for about ten minutes and then rinse your hair with normal water.

Sugar, olive oil and honey scrub: For this treatment, you will need two tablespoons each of brown sugar, lemon juice, and jojoba oil. Combine the ingredients well before you add a spoonful of salt to the mix. Leave the treatment on your hair for at least half an hour before you wash it off with a mild shampoo. This exfoliating scrub works to get rid of dandruff and strengthen hair follicles.

Apple cider vinegar: Apple cider vinegar is pretty much like an elixir when it comes to treating skin and hair issues. It contains some amazing anti-fungal properties that are sure to get rid of your fungal infection in no time. Just mix 1 cup of the vinegar into 4 cups of water and rinse your scalp with the mixture. Let it sit for about a minute and then wash it off.
