3. WHAT IS DANDRUFF
• Dandruff is a harmless, chronic condition that
occurs when the scalp becomes dry or greasy
and produces white flakes of dead skin that
appear in the hair or on the shoulders.
• Skin cells are formed continuously on the
scalp, so the shedding of dead skin cells is a
normal process.
• With dandruff, however, skin cells are shed at a
faster rate than normal.
• Oily skin clumps together and appear as white
flakes

usually due to dry skin conditions.
• During winter, the air is dry and
devoid of moisture.
• This causes dryness of the skin as
well as the scalp.
• The dry scalp becomes flaky,
which makes it easier for dandruff
to thrive.

first calms down the itching that is
associated with dandruff

curtail the growth of the dandruff-causing
fungus.
