<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Yes, it works
There are several scientific reasons that back up the claim that vinegar effectively combats dandruff. Vinegar has ingredients that attack oil and grease as well as bacteria and yeast, all of which can lead to dandruff.
On the Other: No, it does not work
The vinegar remedy does not produce results for everyone, especially those with a severe case. Severe cases of dandruff commonly result in an uneven ph balance that needs more than just the acidic affect of vinegar to clear up.
Bottom Line
Using vinegar for dandruff is one old home remedy that has been backed up by science and reported to work over and over again. Severe cases however, may benefit more from a recipe that includes both the acidic qualities of vinegar and a base such as oatmeal or grapeseed oil.
