What is dandruff ?
Dandruff and itchiness can be serious indications of abnormal falling hair!
Causes of and treatments for dandruff:
Dandruff is a mixture of sweat, sebum, dirt etc., in addition to flakes of outer layer of epidermis. As hair grows thicker
on the head, these flakes are harder to remove than dirt, and hence dandruff problems will gradually appear if shampooing is insufficient.
There are two types of dandruff. One is the dry type which is grayish white and flakes off when the scalp is scratched.
The other type is oily and it sticks to the nails when the scalp is scratched.
Treatment
Pityriasic scale….
Firstly, keep the scalp clean by shampooing frequently. Then, improve the scalp function by using Hair Lotion.
Apply oil onto the scalp to prevent it drying.
Seborrhic scale….
Keep the scalp clean by frequent shampoo, and then, please use Hair Lotion on the scalp.

Types of dandruff:
○ Dry and flaky type (Pityriasic scale):
When the air is dry and when there is little sebum, this type of dandruff will appear because of
drying of the outer layer of the skin (the stratum corneum).
○ Oily type (Seborrhic scale):
As a result of excessive sebaceous secretion, greasy dandruff will appear. Due to excess androgenic hormone,
sebaceous secretion is also excessive.
Keratinization of the scalp tissue may be accelerated by physical irritation, such as scratching with the nails,
chemical irritation (from drugs), and more dandruff may occur.
Causes of dandruff and falling hair:
Dandruff is caused by abnormal keratinization of stratum corneum, the outer layer of epidermis.
Therefore, the sheath wrapping the hair root will be keratinized gradually.
This leads to a reduction of the power of the skin to hold hair to less than half of normal.
Eventually, even if the hair still retains its own life, it falls out easily when pulled or combed.
