DANDRUFF Q&A
Joshua Grocutt, Hair Expert
“People often get confused between a dry scalp and dandruff. A dry scalp is from irritation such as hot/cold air or too many hair products left in the hair too long. You’ll notice light small flakes of skin. For a dry scalp, you need to be using a deep cleansing or moisturising shampoo. Dandruff, however, is caused by an excess build-up of oil on the scalp. Once it builds on the skin, it can create a mild case of seborrheic dermatitis, which is the yellow white flakes associated with dandruff. Dandruff is a very common and can happen at any time to anyone. You need to continue shampooing but ensure you’re using one that has been developed for dandruff – like the NaturVital Anti-Dandruff Shampoos, as it will target the cause, signs and symptom dandruff.”
Top 10 Do’s & Don’ts for Dandruff
1. Dandruff is more common in the winter months as you’re not washing your hair as often and there’s less humidity in the air
2. Ensure you’re washing your hair regularly but try to use luke warm water so you’re not over exciting the sebaceous glands that create the oil on the scalp
3. Just like a hairdresser/barber would, don’t forget to wash your hair brush and comb regularly otherwise you’re just continuing to pass on the old oils and hair products back into your hair and scalp
4. Give your scalp a facial regularly by using gentle hair scrub
5. If your scalp is sore and inflamed you may have a more serious concern, so do speak to your hairdresser or a trichologist for advice
6. Avoid scratching or using any harsh chemicals in your hair regime or you may irritate your scalp further
7. Silicones in your shampoo can cause a barrier on your skin that prevents other ingredients penetrating, so swap your cleansing regime for a silicone free product – like the NaturVital Anti-Dandruff Shampoos
8. Make sure your diet includes lots of healthy fats (nuts, oily fish, avocado) to help keep your scalp moisturised
9. Try not to wear hats all the time as it can stop oxygen getting to your scalp and will dry the scalp further
10. Brushing your hair regularly helps with shedding old skin and stimulating the scalp
