Dreaded Dandruff

What is it?

Winter is upon us and with it comes dreaded dandruff. Dandruff is a skin condition that causes an itchy & flaking scalp. Severe cases are known as Seborrheic Dermatitis.

Helpful Solutions

Dandruff can sometimes be embarrassing but don’t fret! Here are some ways you can help to control it:

• When shampooing your hair, make sure you use cool water. Hot water can dry out your scalp & skin even more.
• Apply your shampoo and conditioner evenly from mid-strand to the ends of your hair. Make sure you are not applying to much product to just one area of the scalp.
• Also, washing your hair too often can strip the scalp of its natural oils that help to keep it moisturized.
• Last but certainly not least, using professional shampoos and conditioners will also help to control dandruff. Drug store and off the shelf shampoo and conditioners contain a high amount of wax and alcohol that concentrate the supply of their product in the bottle, which can clog the pores on the scalp.
