Dandruff is one of the most common and persistent scalp problems, often causing discomfort and embarrassment. To effectively deal with it, it is key to understand that dandruff is almost always a signal that the scalp has lost its natural balance. This imbalance can be caused by both internal and external factors.
The Roots of the Problem: Why Does Dandruff Appear?
Dandruff appears as visible white flakes and is often accompanied by itching. Over time, the scalp becomes dry or overly sensitive, leading to these unpleasant symptoms.
Internal factors: The imbalance coming from within
-
Stress and lifestyle: High levels of stress and chronic sleep deprivation can directly affect the immune system and hormonal balance, which often affects scalp health.
-
Dehydration and nutrition: Insufficient water intake and a deficiency in key vitamins (especially B vitamins) and Omega-3 fatty acids can make the scalp dry and prone to flaking.
-
Yeast and Fungus: In many cases, dandruff is linked to the overgrowth of the fungus Malassezia globosa , which is naturally present on the scalp. When the scalp is out of balance, this fungus can become activated, causing irritation and accelerated skin cell turnover.
External factors: Environmental aggression
-
Harsh shampoos: Products containing strong cleansing agents can strip the scalp of its natural oils and protective barrier, leading to dryness and irritation.
-
Excessive washing: Washing too frequently, especially with hot water, disrupts the lipid layer of the scalp, causing dryness and flaking.
-
Environmental factors: Cold weather, sudden changes in temperature, and pollution can dry out or irritate the scalp, worsening the condition of dandruff.
How to fix it: Scalp recovery routine
Effectively dealing with dandruff requires not just temporary removal of flakes, but restoring long-term balance to the scalp.
1. Balancing shampoos for gentle cleansing
