Dandruff affects many of us. From those scalp flakes to dry skin inside the ear even, dandruff is annoying and embarrassing in many cases.

It's caused by stress, oily skin and even using skin products with high amounts of alcohol. Don't shower every single day? That may contribute as well.

Although trying to avoid stress these days is like trying to avoid air, getting enough sleep and washing your body thoroughly every day is key to curbing dandruff. If that does not work, the last resort (as far as I am concerned) is using a medicated shampoo that contains salicylic acid.
