About Dandruff
Dandruff is a common scalp condition marked by flaking of the skin on your scalp. While it isn't contagious or serious, it can be embarrassing and sometimes difficult to treat. Mild dandruff can be treated with gentle shampooing, but more stubborn cases may need medicated shampoos or prescription treatments.
Common Causes
- Dry skin
- Seborrheic dermatitis (oily, irritated skin)
- Malassezia (yeast-like fungus on scalp)
- Not shampooing enough
- Sensitivity to hair care products (contact dermatitis)
- Skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema
- Stress and hormonal changes
- Cold, dry weather
