The skin is connected to our central nervous system, so when we are in a situation of continuous stress, it reflects it with changes like dandruff. The scalp is skin and the health of our hair is born here, beautiful hair depends on the proper functioning of this area. However, before you buy an anti-dandruff shampoo, you need to know what causes it. Our experts advise us what to do.
When we notice a change, the first thing we should do is get a diagnosis that provides clarification if it is dandruff or flaking† Dandruff occurs when the exfoliation process that renews cells is altered, generating more dead cells. As a result, one of the fungi on the scalp multiplies and causes irritation while stimulating the production of more dead cells. There are two types dandruff, one dry and the other oily. The first shows white, fine and dry scales. The second occurs in areas where there is more sebum, such as the front or the neck, they are larger and yellowish in color,” explains Raquel Saiz of Salon in Blue by Raquel Saiz from Torrelavega (Cantabria).
Avoid anything that dries out the scalp, especially shampoos with sulfates, paraffins and silicones are very drying. “The peeling is less cumbersome, because it is part of a normal process of the organism, where the cells of the scalp regenerate. In this case, the discomfort occurs when our scalp is dry or dehydrated. The dryness causes the peeling and even itching The scales are smaller, white or transparent and dry,” says Rafael Bueno of Rafael Bueno Peluqueros from Malaga.
Once we know whether the cause of dandruff is dehydration or fat, we will implement the most appropriate protocol. In both cases, the balance must be restored. “If there is a lack of hydration, it is about nourishing the scalp. If there is fat, we will eliminate the build-up of toxins and facilitate oxygenation. to peel of the scalp unclogs the pores and regulates their functioning. From here we apply the ingredients you need to nourish or purify. And for washing at home, let your hairdresser advise you, using a shampoo suitable for you is essential“, proposes Felicitas Ordás of Felicitas Hair from Mataró (Barcelona).
