Think U have dandruff? U may not! My stylist just told me that I have shampoo and conditioner build-up and not dandruff. She said that if you can scrape white stuff off your scalp with your nails - it's NOT dandruff. I thought I had caught it at a haircut place where they just throw their combs and brushes in a drawer WITHOUT sanitising them!!! I've found several references on the Internet that dandruff is caused by a scalp specific fungus, Malassezia globosa. I tried MANY dandruff shampoos and NEVER could get rid of it! So, I was soooo glad when my stylist told me the truth! She told me to get a scalp exfoliater from Walgreen's - in the brush isle and U can get 2 for a $1. So now I've tried it and it's working. Or at least it has been for the few days since I got it cut. So, I'm spreading the NEWS! Maybe I'll be able to wear black again soon - how cool will that be????
Now for a little trivia: True or false: Dandruff is also called scurf ???????
Yes!
