The weather: Although weather is usually not the cause of dandruff, dandruff can worsen during dry, cold-weather months. It's believed that the reduction of humidity in the air during winter can add to the buildup of dry skin that occurs with dandruff.
Dry skin : People with dry skin tend to get dandruff more often. Winter cold air, combined with overheated rooms is a common cause of itchy, flaking skin. The flakes are usually small and not oily.
Seborrheic dermatitis (itchy, scaly skin caused by an overproduction of oils in the skin and irritated malassezia.) People with seborrheic dermatitis are very prone to dandruff often in the scalp, backs of the ears, the breastbone, eyebrows and the sides of the nose. The patient will have red, greasy skin covered with flaky white or yellow scales.
Certain skin conditions : Conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, can also trigger dandruff for some people.
Some illnesses : Adults with Parkinson's disease and some other neurological illnesses are more prone to having dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Patients recovering from heart attack, stroke or a weak immune system may also have dandruff more often than others.
Diet : Some experts say that people who do not consume enough foods that contain zinc, B vitamins, and some types of fats are more prone to dandruff.
Stress: Experts believe there is a link between stress and many skin problems.
