Dandruff is a common scalp condition affecting many people today, resulting from the shedding of dead skin cells. This shedding creates white flakes that can cause itchiness and discomfort. While dandruff is not a serious medical issue, it can impact one’s self-confidence. Factors such as fungal overgrowth, dry skin, seborrheic dermatitis, sensitivity to certain hair products, and inadequate scalp care contribute to dandruff.

Dandruff Treatment

Types of Dandruff

Understanding the type of dandruff you experience helps target the root cause effectively:

  1. Dry Skin Dandruff: Caused by a lack of moisture, resulting in small, dry flakes that fall easily from the scalp and may accumulate on the shoulders.
  2. Oily Scalp Dandruff: Excessive oil production fosters yeast growth, creating greasy, larger flakes that adhere to the scalp.
  3. Fungal (Seborrheic Dermatitis) Dandruff: An overgrowth of the Malassezia fungus causes red, inflamed skin and oily, yellowish flakes, commonly affecting areas with high oil production.

Causes of Dandruff

  • Fungal Growth: An overgrowth of Malassezia on the scalp feeds on natural oils, leading to irritation and dandruff.
  • Dry Skin: A common cause, dry skin leads to flakiness and discomfort.
  • Seborrheic Dermatitis: This skin condition produces excess oil, making the scalp red, itchy, and flaky.
  • Product Sensitivity: Sensitivity to certain shampoos, conditioners, or hair sprays can trigger dandruff.
  • Poor Scalp Hygiene: Infrequent washing or improper scalp cleansing allows oil, dead skin cells, and dirt to build up.
