Tea tree Shampoo: Use daily. Avoid the eyes as it stings. Once it is better than use only as needed. It may take a week or so to see it clear.

Oil +: Oil can help. Apply, warm with moist heat, allow to sit for a few minutes then brush.Strip the oil and debris completely with a dandruff shampoo.Repeat as needed until the heavier flakes have separated, then just use the dandruff shampoo as needed to maintain. The shampoo is irritating to eyes so avoid letting it get close.
