Dandruff is an annoying problem that affects millions of people worldwide. Dandruff can be a major cause of low self-esteem, shyness, and embarrassment, and people who suffer from it often struggle to find solutions.
Dandruff is not just a health issue, but also an aesthetic one, as it leads to the presence of white flakes on clothing, especially on the shoulders. Fortunately, there are now excellent alternatives to combat and control it.
What is the cause?
The cells on the scalp (like all skin cells) tend to die and be replaced by new ones. This is a natural process. With a healthy scalp, this occurs once a month, and the dead cells are discreetly removed during washing or brushing without notice. Scientists have discovered that dandruff occurs when a yeast called Malassezia "goes wild" on the scalp. The microscopic fungus Malassezia is a normal resident of a healthy human scalp and feeds on the oily secretions from the
hair follicles. However, sometimes the fungus grows out of control for reasons still unknown and causes skin irritation that accelerates the renewal of skin cells on the scalp.
There are also additional factors that can cause dandruff, such as stress, excessive sweating, an overly acidic diet, hormonal imbalances, shampoos with unbalanced pH, or even abrasive hair dyes, perms, or other treatments.
How to prevent it from coming back?
It is known that fungi multiply again over time under the right conditions. Therefore, it is essential to prevent it from reappearing once we get rid of it. Here’s what we can do:
-
Wash your hair with warm water and rinse with cold water to reactivate blood circulation and strengthen the scalp skin.
-
Brush your hair regularly to prevent the fungus from reappearing and growing. Minimize the use of products like gel, wax, varnish, etc., as these products can damage the scalp if the hair is not washed well.
- Pay attention to a balanced diet with fewer acidic foods and increase the intake of foods rich in vitamins and plant-based proteins.
