What causes dandruff and how does SUNSILK Scalp Care work?
Dandruff is scaling of the scalp. On a normal scalp the upper layer of the epidermis is lost gradually as a fine powder which is virtually invisible. When the scalp is irritated larger sheets of cells are lost. These are dandruff flakes. The cause of dandruff is not clearly defined but is thought to be related to the presence of microflora on the scalp. The best way to control dandruff is to use a ‘medicated’ product such as SUNSILK Scalp Care Dandruff Control, which uses the ingredient Piroctone Olamine. This is a clinically proven antidandruff ingredient which prevents the breakdown of sebum into substances which can irritate the scalp and cause increased scaling. SUNSILK Scalp Care shampoo controls dandruff and helps prevent new dandruff forming, while cleaning and conditioning in one easy step.
