Those flakes appearing on your shoulders are sometimes the medical result

(depending on the nature of the condition) of a skin condition known as seborrheic

dermatitis, which is a type of eczema of the face and scalp. It results in red, itchy skin

but is best recognized by the scaly flakes of skin that tend to fall from the scalp and

out of the hair--the stuff we recognize as dandruff. The condition affects the sebum

glands, resulting in dried out skin.

Several herbal remedies and natural treatments can help prevent seborrheic

dermatitis, reduce flaking, and minimize scalp irritation. Check out our natural seb

derm shampoos and other home remedies below!

In infants Seborrheic Dermatitis is known as cradle cap. Check out Earth Clinic's

Cradle Cap remedies here.

Apple Cider Vinegar 31 2

Posted by Cw (Southwest Missouri) on 06/30/2015

[YEA] Amazing results.

I found this website on June 23, just 1 week ago. The same day I started regiment of 2 tablespoons of organic ACV with

"The Mother", 1 teaspoon of raw un filtered honey and 8-10 oz of water 3 times a day and once a day rubbing straight ACV

right on my problem areas, mostly on my face and in my ears. The results are increarable, in just 3 days my SD that I have

been dealing with for 8 years is completely gone!

If anyone is sitting on the fence, please do not wait any longer, start using this today and get your life back.

Thank you all very much!

[YEA] I am 37 yr old female using cortisone creams from 15 yr old on my scalp and face and underarms for SD. Indian and

US doctors recommended the same kind of medications for me.

After reading this article, I tried organic ACV for last 5 days and the results are great. My face, behind my ear, underarms

are showing much improvement.also my scalp is getting much better and I am keep using it.

I suggest this to all who have SD which is a mental nuisance to all.

[BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS] Hello,

to make a story short, been with S/D for more than 10 years. Tried a lot of things to get rid of it.

I will post a more detailed entry later. After reading this site, I bought ACV with the mother and applied 20 mn ago with a

1:1 ratio (ACV / bottled water). The results seem to be here already concerning the flaking, but when I finished applying it I

realized parts of my face were red. The excess mixture of ACV and water ran down my face for a while, while I was applying

it on my hair.

My face feels hot on the red parts. Any ideas what may have caused this, and will it last?

Those two links are pics of the red zones on my face right now.

The best solution is to stop it from running down your face.

Put a towel on, tip your head back. You may be allergic, it sounds as though it is 'burning'

you.

You, MAY get better results with distilled, WHITE vinegar, instead of ACV.

The best remedy for SD is Neem juice (comes with a dropper, just put a dab on your trouble

spots and it vanishes in 24hrs). The burn on your face when AcV drips is typical nothing to

worry except for the discomfort.

Hi, what do you mean by 'the mother'? I have ACV.

Thanks in anticipation.

EC: Hi, you'll find information about Apple Cider Vinegar with the 'mother' here:

[YEA] I created an account just to post about my treatment of Seb Derm with Apple Cider Vinegar.

Bit of background, early 20's male with Seb Derm originally in one eye brow as flaky skin (i didn't know what it was) but it

ultimately spread to either side of my nose, forehead, and parts of beard.

Tried many things; at first it was emoillients (moisturising to the extreme), then I self prescribed Ketoconazole (Nizoral

cream). The initial treatment stopped the flaking, but was 5% still red and not very pleasant to apply twice daily. The cream

then (after 1 year) appeared to stop being as effectively recently.

Then I tried ACV - applied nothing else but Bragg directly to the skin and drank it twice a day minimum. With nothing else -

this started to work after about a week and the results were fantastic.

Unfortunately I ran out of the stuff for about 4 days, and the redness has returned slightly but so far so good - very

impressed!

[YEA] Very excited to make this post! I've had Seborrheic Dermatitis of the scalp for over 7 years now. Used the typical

T-sal shampoos which didn't cure but felt like "maintained" the SD to a manageable degree (i.e. it wasn't really itchy just

more of a cosmetic nuisance). Recent flare ups and itchiness led me to finally use the prescription strength corticosteroid

which didn't help. I could feel it literally burning, but it would not reduce the size/redness of the patches. Fed up I finally hit

google and this message board seemed to have the most "real" responses so I figured why not!

My first night I used pure ACV, no dilution. I didn't have Braggs with "the mother" on hand, but thought it was worth a shot.

I applied with a spray bottle and let sit for 30 minutes. I washed it out and my hair/scalp looked great! I'd say 90% was

gone.

I then purchased the Braggs ACV and tried a 1:1 dilution. This time I put my hair up (it is long) prior to the ACV treatment so

the rest of my hair wouldn't soak up the ACV/make a mess. This was much better! I also applied with an eye-dropper which

was more precise than the spray. I let it sit for 30-45 minutes then rinse/shampoo after.

After this second round SD was 95% gone. Within 2 more treatments I haven't seen any major flakes or had any flare ups!

A few tiny flakes here and there but nothing like before (where my whole scalp basically came off). With the ACV I used an

all natural coconut shampoo, but I have also used Pantene afterward and it was fine.

I was so excited by my results I had my dad try the ACV on his facial SD. He has been using a variety of washes/topicals for

years and within 3 days of applying ACV with a cotton swab his SD is gone as well!

Bottom line- give it a try! This experience has really turned me off from traditional medications, not that I was a big fan

before. Regular ACV and Braggs both worked, but I am sticking with Braggs because more people seem to recommend it.

[YEA] Hi all,

Thanks for all your posts as it has helped me a lot! :)

I have been suffering from severe Seborrheic Dermatitis on my face for over a year. Nizoral cream (anti fungal) from the

doctor has helped but not as much as I would like.

I tried ACV 1:1 with water last week. I apply it at night with a cotton pad after washing my face with warm water and leave

it on. The following morning I wash my face with water again and reapply ACV.

Results have been fantastic, no more flaking, very little redness and normal skin. It does smell for around 5 minutes after

[YEA] I tried all sorts of things to get rid of my seborrheic dermatitis/dandruff. I had it on my face and my scalp. Tried

putting vaseline on at the start as I thought it was dry skin! Didn't work (obviously! ) Tried changing my moisturiser. Didn't

work. Aloe Vera only seemed to make the appearance better for about 20 mins and then the flaking would start again. Tried

a shampoo with Ciclopirox. Still no improvement. Tried a cream with neem in it. Still didn't notice much improvement.

Then I reached for the apple cider vinegar. I wasn't looking forward to it as I don't love the smell of vinegar. I diluted it to

half strength with water and applied it to my scalp, shampooing and washing it out after 10-15 mins. Also applied to my face

where affected and washed off with water after 10 mins. I saw improvements within a few days. I had to keep up the

treatments for a bit. The facial treatments I did twice a day and the scalp treatments twice a week when washing my hair.

99% of the symptoms cleared up. The rest vanished as soon as warmer weather came in and I got a good dose of sunshine.

So far I haven't had to do the facial treatments in the summer or autumn but am waiting to see if I may have to return to

them once the weather gets properly cold again. The twice weekly scalp treatments I've kept up. I read somewhere

someone suggesting that if the scalp is kept free from dandruff then that might control the whole lot which seemed to make

sense to me. Thanks to all those who recommended apple cider vinegar for this condition as it really helped me.

Folks, it must be ACV with the "mother". No other has the health benefits of this. Braggs is a good one.

Posted by Sam (Toronto, Canada) on 03/20/2012

[YEA] I just wanted to say thanks! I'm 29 and i've had SD for over 9 years now. I've used everything prescribed by the

docs and needless to say - it only works till it doesn't. I stumbled upon this site looking for ways to get rid of the dandruff

buildup on my eyelids and behind my ears. Its not attractive.

I was very excited about using the ACV diluted with water treatment. I have (had) really - really bad SD with the scabs and

all. I sprayed the diluted ACV solution on my face and hair. Got as much to the scalp as possible. I have long hair. Waited for

15 mins and washed it away.

The difference in my facial skin was dramatic. I mean I use it 3 times a day on my face now (rub it on with a cotton ball). My

skin looks healthy and even some dark spots on my skin have faded away. I love it.

It took almost a month to see the same results on my hair. But i'm glad to report that after 9 years i'm finally dandruff free!

And if that wasn't great enough my hair is healthier and shinnier to boot!

I want to thank this little community for the "enlightenment".

Also, I have found that using e45 dermatological emollient face wash is excellent and helped

the cause a LOT! Thanks all, good luck.

[YEA] Hi everyone, I'm 28 and had been searching for a remedy to treat seborrheic dermatitis on my face for about 3

years. Finally, this year it has cleared up and I believe that raw apple cider vinegar with the mother helped a lot. I do not

really suffer from SD on my scalp, it only appears there in small patches in winter which clears with shampoo. The sides of

my nose were the main problem area. I had constant pink patches on the skin there, which would sometimes burn. I had

hardly any flaky skin, just the pink, sometimes red irritated patches.

Anyway, it was diagnosed by a dermatologist as SD and after a couple of years of on and off again treatments prescribed by

him and my family doctor, I decided to change my diet and my skin care routine.

Ten months ago, I cut virtually all yeast from my diet. I stopped using prescribed medications on my SD. There was an initial

flare up as my skin was addicted to the steroid cream I had been using. I began to use a face wash which is very calming. I

used filtered water to dilute raw Apple Cider Vinegar with mother in a small spray bottle. After cleansing and whenever I

thought of it during the day, I would soak my face with the spray. I would keep my eyes closed with a folded tissue held over

them. At first the smell was bad but it does not last long. I did this intense soaking everyday for about 2 months and then as

the SD improved I cut back to doing it morning and night. I stopped spraying and just used a soaked cotton ball.

I also use the Apple Cider Vinegar as a salad dressing and mixed into tuna. Ten months on my SD has not returned and my

skin has never looked better. I still avoid eating yeast but I am not as strict. I stopped using the Apple Cider Vinegar on my

face, but I think I will start to use it again as a toner after reading everyone's great reviews here. I am also going to try the

baking soda face scrub. I think it is important to dilute the Apple Cider Vinegar if you are going to apply it to your face and

avoid getting it in your eyes.

I tried Organic apple cider vinegar and water (1:1ratio) on my hair first time yesterday. It

feels good. Couple of questions.

1. Should I quit my current dandruff shampo prescription?

2. When using on Face, should I quit my steroids I am currently using?

When I used first time I used baby shampoo first then sprayed this solution waited 10 mins

and rinsed off. Just wondering if I need to shampoo before the application or after

appilcation? I have read that some ppl suggested to spray it and leave it on. Is that better?

Please let me know. Also if someone can suggest some good shampoos when I quit the

dandruff shamoos that will be great.

Do not immediately come down off your steroids. Begin the ACV wash FIRST without your

antidandruff shampoo. Steroids are very potent and need to be stepped down slowly. Do

NOT simply come off them. Speak with your doctor about the best way to cut down your

steroids. Good call on coming down off them though. My mother has been getting off and on

steroid treatments for years because of breathing problems and her doctors recently

confirmed that she has suffered liver damage because of their consistent long-term use. :)

[NAY] Apple Cider Vinegar for Seborrheic Dermatitis: Nay

I was soooo hoping this would work after reading all the positive responses. I tried straight ACV on my face (around nose

and mouth) twice daily for 2 weeks (not rinsed). Did not help at all. :(

I'll move on to some of the other ideas mentioned!

I have found two remedies that control seborrheic dermatitis: African formula zinc shampoo

- can be bought at Health Food Stores, been using this for years. Also lavender tea works

great. I make the tea with 2 heaping tspns. dried lavender in 2 cups of water, boil water, let

steep for 15 min. Keep in refrigerator. Spray on scalp after shampooing. It smells great, nice

for hair.

Hi, I did read about your Apple Cider Vinegar treatment on sebderm. I am curisous if you

could pass me a link of your cleanser you use am / pm. Did you ever see any tiny flakies

returned?

Thanks

I get the eliminating yeast part, but doesn't ACV contain yeast? In yeast elimination diets,

vinegar is one of the first things to go. Interested as I too am looking for a natural remedy

for facial SD

I am writing because i would like to try the apple cider vinegar approach for my seborrheic

dermatitis of the scalp, but I am living temporarily in Seoul, Korea, and here they only have

"brown rice vinegar". Can this be used as an adequate substitute for apple cider vinegar?

Your help would be much appreciated.

Ken, apple cider vinegar is sold in South Korea. If you are inclined, even organic apple cider

vinegar can be found in the basement department grocery shops and health food shops.

Dear Susan. I think ACV does work, but you must use it at least 3 months and you should

be patient.

Apple cider vinegar or any vinegar must be mixed with some water in order to make it

alkaline and effective. Otherwise it will remain acidic and won't do much good.

[SIDE EFFECTS] I just stumbled upon this website the other day and after reading all the fantastic results ACV had when

curing dandruff, I rushed out and grabbed a bottle. I started the treatment last night. I couldn't find a spray bottle, so I just

poured a bit on my damp hair. I waited several minutes, then rinsed it out, then shampooed as usual. When I got out of the

shower, my hair felt quite a bit cleaner, but once it dried it felt dirtier. Not greasy, really, but I dunno, like I could almost feel

all the flakes when I touched my hair, and they started falling out way easier. I was a bit worried. Was this just another

treatment that I would try and try and get no results? I held my ground and tried again tonight, except this time I used a

spray bottle and diluted it with water. Same results. Are these results actually showing that my hair is improving getting rid

of these annoying flakes? Is this how it is supposed to be?

Please help. I'm so sick of suffering from this. I've had it for a while now, but lately it's just been so much worse. About a

year ago I had a tamer version of what I have got going on with my dandruff now, and I was able to get rid of it all by just

using tea tree oil and t-gel shampoo. I tried this a couple months ago when I noticed problems again, but it only seemed to

make things worse. I then tried nizoral, but that made things much, much worse. So, please, please help. I will be very

grateful for any feedback. Thanks.

Holly,

Adding water doesn't make it alkaline, it just dilutes it. It will still be acidic. You dilute it to

avoid skin irritation and possible hair damage.

This is Merryanne in FL, I am not sure what the answer is, if you try something for several

days, and you have no good results, then that is not the answer, so try some thing

else,,sometimes a combination of items helps bring results,,why not put hydrogen peroxide

on dry hair and wrap in a towel for 15 min then rinse with water, then rinse with acv, wrap

again in towel and wait 10 min, then shampoo and no cream rinse,, wait an hour let hair dry

in the air,,,check results,,,if no good may be try treating for fungus,,try iodine clear,,,keep

searching,, Merryanne

hi all! can apple cider vinegar be left on indefinitely? i have a weave in that's not due to be

taken out for another 4 weeks or so. is it safe to spray on the acv and forget about it?

thanks in advance

[YEA] I have been suffering from Seborrhea for most of my adult life and used all possible medicated and non-medicated

shampoos, nothing seemed to help. The only thing that worked was steriod creams and after I stopped them, it came back. I

turned to the internet and found the ACV cure on EC. I have used it religiously for two weeks and its working.

I read another user's remark and got myself a color applicator from a beauty store and poured half ACV and half water. I

apply it everyday after shampooing, rub it into the scalp and leave it for 2 to 5 minutes. It stinks like vinegar when the hair

is wet, but once dry, no smell. There is none to minimal scaling and absolutely no itching in the hair. Since its only a couple

of weeks, I am going it give it more time to completely rid the scaling. Note: I use an organic shampoo, with all natural

ingredients and no sulfates. And since using ACV, I have skipped using the conditioner, the ACV leaves hair soft, shiny and

detangled.

I'm not sure if all cases of S/D start out like mine, but I remember feeling something

pimple-like on my head when I was in middle school or or 9th grade. I scratched it off and

didn't think anything of it. It came back, I scratched it. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. When I

gave myself the usual buzzcut a few weeks later I noticed the hair in that spot had grouped

together and at the base of that grouping their was a red skin lesion. I, to this day, nearly 5

or 6 years later, haven't told either of my parents and if/when I cut my hair short where my

scalp is visible (at this point, and for the last couple of years, there are many, many lesions

on my head) I'll wear a hat until my hair grows out and covers up the red, flaky scales. I

even had hair down to my shoulders at one point because I was so afraid of cutting my hair

short like I like it.

I tried T/Gel shampoos or whatever they are called. Some with Salasylic acid (sp?) and

others with coal tar. Neither helped much, if it all. I'm contemplating trying Selsun Blue

and/or Head and Shoulders, but I'm guessing they won't help either. My case is pretty

severe, though I've been too scared to ever see a doctor about it.

I came on this site, and others, and apparently ACV is helping lots of people. Though I'm

confused, do you drink the ACV (which I have no probably doing...I drank a shot of malt

vinegar no problem just for laughs one time) or do you apply to the spots on your head that

are red from S/D? Also, those claiming ACV works...is it simply ridding your head of dandruff

and flakes? Or does it alleviate the reddening too? I am more concerned with having a scalpthat is 100% the color of my skin rather than some flaking (which I don't notice when I cut

hair short, but I don't because my scalp has lots of red patches).

I'll be trying the 1 part ACV to 1 part water mixture tomorrow regardless of how it affects

the redness part of my S/D.

Looking forward to a response...

Thank you.

To Mr. B. from Binghamton U.S.A. reference seb. derm. use a selenium based shampoo like

s/blue can be slightly smelly. Just as good with no smell is a ketaconazole based shampoo;

ask your pharmacist if you can't locate it for ketaconazole based anti-dandruff shampoo will

clear after two uses then maintain once every six weeks.

[YEA] I have had seborrheic dermatitis for most of my life. The past few years it has gotten worse and worse. I saw the

dermatologist and he gave me some shampoos that worked minimally. I have tried nearly every OTC remedy.

The plaques were so bad lately I began to seriously think about shaving head. Truly, I was at my wits end.

I found this website and read about the ACV treatment. I happened to have had some in the cabinet that day (for treating

my dogs for fleas) so I mixed some ACV 50/50 with water and applied it to the worst area, put a shower cap on and left it for

30-45 minutes. Then shampooed and conditioned as usual.

There was a marked difference after ONE treatment! I couldn't believe it! I have continued the treatment 2-3x per week for

the last 3 weeks ( now with a spray bottle). My scalp is now almost completely clear! I expect to be completely cleared up

within 30 days of starting treatment.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!! ACV works!

[SIDE EFFECTS] Hello Christine and everyone else, So I have a question.... I have had a

bad scalp for so long and a Doc said it was SD like so many other stories on here. I have

tried literally everything under the son from shampoos to liquids etc. After reading this site I

went out and bought ACV and a bottle to use to pour on the scalp. I mixed half ACV and half

water and also added 2 drops of Peppermint Oil that I read about it's benefits in another site

for the scalp and hair growth. I got in the shower and applied the mixture which actually felt

good on my scalp! As I was allowing it to soak in as directed, the fumes from the ACV began

to almost choke me! I could not breath and began to cough a lot, I opened the bathroom

door to get more ventilation which seemed to help. I wanted to see if anyone else had this

problem? Also, after my hair dried my sclap seemed to be peeling off very badly like the

condition worsened. I want to give it a shot and try again as that maybe my scalp needed

another treatment. What do you guys think? Thanks, Courtney

Courtney, don't use the peppermint oil. While it feels good it can cause burning and peeling

of the skin and in some cases light sensitivity. Peppermint oil is very strong and needs to be

used sparingly.

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED] Dear all, AVC does a good job.. what is the best treatment for my face! I still have litle tiny

flakes... and after the avc my skin feels still a litlle fat.. anyone.. thank you

Courtney, I wanted to tell you what helped me with Seborheic Dermatitis... I lived with it for

15 years and just dealt with it or got used to it... I tried all the special medical shampoos like

T Gel etc., I also tried a healthy dieting with low carbs, I tried ACV, I tried taking Neem,

Garlic and nothing got rid of it...

Then when I was 25 I decided to do a CRASH DIET to lose some weight fast! I read about

Beyonce's Lemonade Diet, "The Master Cleanse" and I decided to do it for 11 days... After

the cleanse, I did lose weight mostly water weight which I gained back about six months

later. But the greatest thing about it was my Seb Dermatitis disappeared and hasn'treturned as of yet... Master Cleanse is not the best weight loss method, but it definitely

clears out some toxins that could be causing rashes... Hope this helps anyone!

One more thing, I recently noticed my hair very dry... I read that you are not supposed to

shampoo everyday because the shampoo will dry your hair and your scalp. Well, I tried to

shampoo every other day but my hair just looked to oily and gross. So I decided to put

about a half cup of melted coconut oil in my shampoo bottle. It has helped alot making my

hair less dry and frizzy and with it being mixed with the shampoo, it doesn't make your hair

look oily. Another thing that helps with dry hair is Shampooing every other day and on

alternate days, only using Conditioner to wash your hair. The conditioner has fragrance and

will mask the smelly, oily scent of your hair. I know it sounds gross, but my hair looks

better, feels softer and styles better when I don't overuse shampoo and when I add a littlecoconut oil...
