How do I know if I have dandruff or just dry scalp?

You do not need to see a dermatologist to differentiate between a dry scalp and Dandruff. Dandruff and dry scalp are two hair and scalp conditions that people usually confuse for one another. Dandruff is a scalp disorder that is caused by fungi known Malassezia yeasts.It can also result from the buildup of sebaceous secretions on the scalp.

Dry scalp occurs when the scalp lacks moisture and begins to flake out. The major distinguishing factor between a dandruff infested scalp and a dry scalp is the size and characteristics of the flakes that fall out. The two hair condition causes itchiness of the scalp, but itching due to dandruff is more severe.

Flakes from dandruff are usually bigger, yellowish and has an offensive smell while the flakes from a dry scalp are usually smaller and whitish. Dandruff can be passed from one person to the other if they share hair combs, hair brushes and hair pins.It can be treated by the use of anti-dandruff shampoos. Dry scalp usually goes away after a good wash with an everyday shampoo and proper oiling of the scalp.

Never treat a dry scalp with an anti-dandruff shampoo,because it would only worsen the condition.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
