5 Common Causes Of Dandruff

What Is Dandruff?

Dandruff manifests as small, white or yellowish flakes of dead skin that can appear on your scalp and shoulders. But why does it happen? Dandruff is primarily the result of an overgrowth of a yeast-like fungus called Malassezia. This fungus thrives on the oils produced by your scalp, leading to irritation and excess skin cell turnover, which translates as flakes.

5 Common Causes Of Dandruff 

Before we tackle the solution, let’s understand what’s causing the problem. Here are some common culprits behind it:

  1. Dry Scalp: When your scalp is too dry, it can lead to itching and flaking. Think of it as your scalp’s way of signaling, “Hey, I need some moisture here!”
  2. Oily Scalp: Okay, so it's not like people with an oily scalp have it easy either. Excess oil can also be a problem. When your scalp produces too much oil, it creates an ideal environment for Malassezia to flourish, resulting in dandruff.
  3. Skin Conditions: Conditions like psoriasis and eczema can contribute to dandruff. These skin issues cause inflammation and scaling that can extend to your scalp.
  4. Improper Hair Care: Using harsh shampoos or not washing your hair frequently enough can lead to a build-up of dead skin cells and oil, exacerbating dandruff.
  5. Diet and Stress: Believe it or not, your diet and stress levels can affect your scalp health. A lack of essential nutrients or high stress can disrupt your scalp’s natural balance.
