Cold Weather – Dandruff Care
With the cold weather upon us you may be noticing your skin and scalp being drier than normal, possibly some dandruff. We definitely need to up the skin care, moisturising and hair care to help it cope with the harsher cooler conditions…. and this “polar blast” wind OMG!
Firstly, let’s look at dandruff. Dandruff is a common condition that causes the skin on the scalp to flake. It isn’t contagious or serious. But it can be embarrassing. Mild dandruff can be treated with various products including a gentle daily shampoo.
Dandruff is a mild form of seborrheic dermatitis. The exact cause of seborrheic dermatitis is not known, but it’s likely a combination of things like: environment, pollution, too much skin oil (sebum) in the oil glands and hair follicles. a type of yeast found on the skin called Malassezia.
Dandruff itself does not cause hair loss. However, severe dandruff can cause a person to scratch their scalp so hard that they injure it. Repeated inflammation in the hair follicles can cause damage and scarring, slowing or stopping hair growth. This can cause weak or thinning hair.
