Dandruff free with tea tree conditioner

Thought someone might find this tip useful - I'd read about it on the net somewhere - sorry forgotten where.
I've had a mild problem with dandruff flaring up now and then - but nothing I was too concerned about. Then after swine flu it seemed like my scalp went nuts. I had pretty severe dandruff for months. I have long waist length hair that takes alot of looking after. I'd consider my hair my best feature but it was becoming a nightmare. I tried every OTC dandruff cure and found I could control the dandruff only if I used dandruff shampoos constantly, but while they would sort out my scalp they would wreck havoc on my dry wavy hair as they were so harsh. I was beginning to think I'd have to cut my hair. In desperation I tried something I'd read once. I saturated my hair with Tea Tree conditioner, just the generic stuff from Tescos. I wrapped my hair up in a towel and let it soak in overnight. Rinsed my hair the next morning and I've not had a problem since. Cheap and effective.
