Dandruff and Hair Care

Dandruff is a common chronic scalp condition marked by flaking of the skin on your scalp. Dandruff isn’t contagious or serious. But it can be embarrassing and sometimes difficult to treat.

What causes Dandruff?

• Dry skin.
• Oily skin (seborrheic dermatitis).
• Skin conditions such as Ezcema.
• Yeast-like fungus (malassezia).
• Hair care products.

What are the Symptoms of Dandruff?

For most teens and adults, dandruff symptoms are easy to spot: white, oily-looking flakes of dead skin that dot your hair and shoulders, and a possibly itchy, scaly scalp.

What to Avoid?

Many commercial shampoos contain chemicals that are harmful, and dandruff shampoos are even worse. And within shampoos and hair products, make sure you avoid parabens, sodium laureth or lauryl sulfate.
