The end of summer doesn’t mean we’re safe from dandruff. With the rainy season’s unpredictable weather, there’s even more reason to take extra care of our scalp. On sunny days, all the warmth and sunshine can make it sweat more. On rainy ones, high humidity can increase moisture and oil on the scalp. Both can lead to the overgrowth of Malassezia globosa, a yeast-like fungus that thrives on scalp oils, causing the scalp to overreact and produce those white flakes.
Nobody wants to deal with the hassle and embarrassment of dandruff. Dandruff is usually caused by a number of factors such as irritated and oily skin, dry skin, and most commonly a yeast-like fungus called malassezia that feeds on oils on the scalp. Scalp health expert Selsun Blue shares that there are many ways to fight dandruff and keep locks soft and healthy while doing so.
One of the most popular products for scalp health is Selsun Blue. The range of bestselling shampoos is well known for addressing the toughest dandruff problems being packed with Selenium Sulfide 1%, a powerful anti-infective and anti-fungal agent. This active ingredient combats dandruff by preventing growth of fungi and bacteria on the scalp and slowing down skin cell death and turnover.
The new year usually calls for a change of looks. But this year, why not make it a point to include hair care in your self-care rituals? Whether you want to try a new ‘do or stick to your classic style, maintaining your locks should be part of your daily routine to keep frizzy strands and even dandruff at bay.
