Some are of the opinion that at the early stages of hair loss, dandruff begins to increase. However, an increase in the amount of dandruff does not necessarily mean that there is a "cause-effect" relationship resulting in the thinning of hair.
You should think of excessive dandruff as a warning sign as far as the health of the hair is concerned.
Dandruff is made up of bits of dead skin that peel away from the scalp as a result of the effects of metabolism. Normally, dandruff, in its early stages of growth, is not visible to the naked eye. It becomes visible only after enlarging into pieces of dead skin (what we normally call "dandruff") as a result of the propagation of bacteria and/or problems with seborrhoeic scalp conditions.
Persons suffering from prolonged dandruff are said to have a dandruff ailment. This type of ailment, accompanied by itchiness, can lead to eczema if it worsens. Suppressing the propagation of bacteria is one means of dealing with fatty dandruff. This is because bacteria is one of the causes of this condition.
If possible, try to shampoo on a daily basis to prevent bacterial propagation. One effective means of dealing with dandruff is to disinfect the scalp area with commercially available medicated shampoos specifically designed for dandruff removal. However, daily shampooing can lead to eczema for persons who suffer from dry scalps. Shampooing once every three days may be ideal for such persons.
Persons who suffer from persistent, hard-to-cure dandruff are urged to consult a skin specialist.
Most of us are troubled by dandruff, and sometimes even medicated shampoos provide only short-term relief. If the shampoo is too strong, you could even develop an allergic reaction to it, especially if you have sensitive skin. On the other hand, if you have dandruff in your hair, it could be the cause of a pimply face. Do not worry. We have an extremely simple and effective remedy � sour curds (yoghurt). Yes you�ve read it correctly. Apply sour curds on the scalp and leave it for 30 minutes. Then use a regular shampoo, and voila � your hair is healthy and clean. Another simple tip would be to oil your hair and leave it overnight. Mix salt in a little lemon juice and apply on your scalp. Wash it off after an hour.
