that
I’ve
struggled
with

in

What
is
dandruff?
Dandruff
refers
to
a
common
skin
condition
in
which
the
scalp
produces
white
or
yellowish
skin
flakes,
experts
say.
While
flakes
are
the
most
noticeable,
other
dandruff
symptoms
include
a
sensitive,
oily
scalp
and
scalp
irritation
and
itchiness.
Why
do
I
have
dandruff?
There
are
a
number
of
reasons
why
you
may
be
experiencing
dandruff
and
none
of
them
have
to
do
with
a
dry
scalp
or
poor
hygiene
—
contrary
to
what
people
may
think.
The
most
common
reason
for
dandruff
is
a
build
up
of
excess
oil
and
sebum,
according
to
experts.
This
is
the
result
of
either
not
washing
your
hair
often
enough
or
washing
it
too
often,
which
can
dry
out
the
scalp
overcompensate
oil
production.
Yes,
it’s
annoying,
but
finding
the
right
number
of
hair
wash
days
for
your
skin
type
can
help
keep
your
scalp’s
microbiome
balanced,
thus
preventing
dandruff.
You
might
also
experience
dandruff
if
you’re
using
hair
products
that
overly
dry
out
your
scalp.
