Thanks for writing in.
I'm not a big fan of home remedies albeit they can be useful in certain instances.
However, a much more detailed history including medical, personal, family, medication history etc needs to be taken along with some clear digital pics of the affected area to arrive at a pucca diagnosis and provide a clear line of management.
Dandruff can be a pesky issue and what works for one need not work for another.
You may wish to consider an INSTANT ONLINE Consultation for a speedy resolution 🙏
