DOES DANDRUFF CAUSE DRY SCALP?

FAQ: WHAT CAUSES DRY SCALP AND HOW DO YOU TREAT IT?

A dry scalp can be caused by many different factors, including dandruff.

As dandruff damages the scalp’s outer surface of skin cells, it also damages the skin’s natural moisture defences that keep the scalp nourished. As a result, many dandruff suffers complain of a tight, dry feeling scalp – a key sign it’s missing essential moisture.

The first step in treating a dry scalp is to tackle one of the root causes – dandruff. Use an anti-dandruff shampoo to remove dandruff flakes and help to restore your scalp’s natural moisture balance.

Head & Shoulders Dry Scalp Care with extra moisturisers and almond oil is the perfect dry scalp remedy – it has been clinically proven to restore moisture to the scalp.

Also, when styling your hair, try not to use too many hot styling tools like straighteners, curlers, tongs and hair dryers – the heat from these tools can dry out your scalp and make the problem worse.
