How to use onion powder
Half a cup of chopped fresh onion is equal to one tablespoon of onion powder. It’s easy! Soups and stews are perfect candidates for onion powder, so sprinkle it over the surface and stir. Mix 2 tablespoons of onion powder with 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small bowl. Apply this mixture to your scalp and massage it into the scalp in circular motions. After two hours, wash your scalp with mild shampoo. For strong, dandruff-free hair, perform this activity regularly.
