What actually causes dandruff? What is dandruff really. Are they residue of your shampoo, or are they produced by your scalp. I would get some when I don't wash my hair for a day. THere are times I can't wash hair everyday and then the itchy scalp follows.when i scratch it i know they are there. Maybe there are not dandruff because they don't seem to be flaked scalp, but they are white and don't fall off nor show just like what's advertised, unless maybe I wait a week and not wash then I scratch them, they will show.

Dandruff are dry scalp skin which comes out from the head surface if you do not used to bath regularly. I have dandruff and I am suffering from losing of hairs from my head. I had this stupid dandruff from my friends by using others combs. So from my experience I had found out that dandruff gets copied to you when you use the combs who suffers from dandruff. So never have others comb.
If you are suffering from dandruff it is better to use shampoo. it will surely get rid of dandruff.

Use a right shampoo and you will be free from dandruff. Dandruff is a scalp skin produced by your scalp. You must maintain cleanliness in order to free yourself from dandruff.

i used to shampoo my hair everyday because i feel that my shower is not complete if i don't but i noticed that my hair is dry and fall off easily and i have itchy scalp due to dandruff. i researched about it on the net and found out that it is best to use conditioner on days when i cant use shampoo to allow my hair to rest and not dry up. i found it very effective in controlling my dandruff.
i also read in a medical book that stress could also trigger the presence of dandruff!

I believe that there are a lot of explanations why we have dandruff. In my own self, what causes dandruff the most is that you didn't rinse your hair well when you are taking a bath. Shampoo will stay there if it's not rinse properly. Since it's in it's liquid state, after you dry up your hair it go to its solid form and it will become a flake. Another thing which I believe as one of the reason that causes dandruff is staying longer on the heat of the sun. When you stay longer on the sun's rays your hair will got dry and your scalp will develop an oil in your hair which will also become a flake.
Whatever the cause may be. Dandruff can be avoided. I had dandruff before but I have a super beautiful hair now. Aside from shampooing my hair everyday I also make sure that I go to the salon to have a Hair Spa for added treatment.
