Features
Dandruff is caused by the disruption of the so-called microbiome as a protective layer of the scalp. The microbiome is responsible for the balance between the death of old skin cells and the formation of new ones. If it is disturbed, an excessive amount of dandruff develops on the scalp, which is spread over the entire head by the natural movement of the hair.
The causes of scaly scalp can be numerous, often fungal pathogens.
In technical terms, scaly hair is referred to as pityriasis capitis.
