Tea tree oil, as we all know, is a bacteria killer and can remove all the dirt and infectants from the affected area. But tea tree oil should never be used directly on the scalp. You can add some drops of tea tree oil to your regular hair oil and then apply it all over your hair. Or, you can mix some water with tea tree oil and then apply it only on the affected areas with a cotton ball. You can also add some drops of tea tree oil to your regular shampoo and then use it.
