What is Dandruff?

Dandruff is a common problem that affects many people. It’s a skin condition in which the scalp produces excess oils that keep your hair moisturised and clean. Instead of keeping your hair clean, dandruff causes flakes to form on your scalp.

While it can make you feel embarrassed and self-conscious, dandruff is not contagious. In fact, it is usually due to a combination of factors, including dry skin, poor hygiene practices, stress, certain medications, and low humidity in the air.

Symptoms of Dandruff

Dandruff tends to appear as dry, grey-coloured scales that build up in layers and crust over the scalp. These can make you look less than desirable if left untreated.

Additional symptoms may include:

• Red and itchy scalp
• Skin flakes on your hair, eyebrows, and shoulders
• Hair loss

The symptoms of dandruff may be more severe if you’re stressed.

Causes of Dandruff

There are several causes of dandruff, however the most common include seborrheic dermatitis, oily hair, and dry skin. It may also be caused by poor hygiene, especially if you do not wash your hair regularly.

Pinpointing the exact cause of your dandruff can be difficult, but here are some likely causes:

• Excess oil production from the sebaceous glands
• Fungal colonisation on the skin
• Lack of proper shampooing, causing skin cells to accumulate and dry up
• Overbrushing the hair, creating too much friction with the scalp
• Growth of yeast called Malassezia, which aggravates the scalp and causes excess skin cell growth
• Use of multiple hair care products
• Excessive exposure to the sun
• Exposure to dust or dirt

Preventing Dandruff

As dandruff can take a toll on your appearance, here are several ways for you to prevent dandruff:

• Practise good hygiene – Avoid scratching your scalp as best as you can. Scratching the itchy spots can increase irritation and lead to an endless cycle. You might also aggravate the itchiness.
• Find the right shampoo – Finding the right shampoo for your scalp is likely the most difficult part of any hair care routine. But avoid using too many products as this can irritate the scalp.
• Massage your scalp – Massaging your scalp helps to stimulate blood flow and prevent dandruff symptoms.
• Limit the friction – Running your hands through your hair can increase the friction so you might want to limit the friction. Minimise the wearing of hats as these can also cause friction.
