Dandruff -  is a skin condition that mainly affects the scalp. Symptoms include flaking and sometimes mild itchiness. It can result in social or self-estreem problems. A more severe form of the condition, which includes inflammation of the skin, is known as seborrhoeic dermatitis.

The cause is unclear. But believed to involve a number of genetic and environmental factors. The condition may worsen in the wet or the best situation in winter day. It is not due to poor hygiene. The underlying mechanism involves the over growth of skin cells. Diagnosis is based on symptoms.


Dandruff Causes ?

The exact causes of dandruff are unknown.

One theory is that it is linked to hormone production, as it often begins around the time of puberty.

Here the 10 more possible factors Causes dandruff.


1 - Seborrheic dermatitis

People with seborrheic dermatitis have irritated, oily skin, and they are more likely to have dandruff.

Seborrheic dermatitis affects many areas of the skin, including the backs of the ears, the breastbone, eyebrows, and the sides of the nose.

The skin will be red, greasy, and covered with flaky white or yellow scales.

Seborrheic dermatitis is closely linked with Malassezia, a fungus that normally lives on the scalp and feeds on the oils that the hair follicles secrete.

It does not usually cause a problem, but in some people it becomes overactive, causing scalp to become irritated and to produce extra skin cells.

As these extra skin cells die and fall off, they mix with the oil from the hair and scalp, for dandruff.


2 - Dry Skin

People with dry skin are more likely to have dandruff. Cold winter air combined with overheated rooms is a common cause of itchy, flaking skin. Dandruff that stems from overheated tends to have smaller, non-oily flakes.


3 - Shampooing and skin care products
