About Stubborn Dandruff

What is stubborn dandruff?

Some people have dandruff that is very difficult to clear. Stubborn dandruff is thought to be caused by high levels of a fungal yeast on the scalp

What are the symptoms of stubborn dandruff?

In stubborn dandruff, the flakes of skin build up and stay on the surface of the scalp, rather than falling away.

The scalp can become red and irritated, and may feel quite itchy.

In very severe cases, the scales may appear yellow rather than white as in dandruff. The problem may also extend to areas other than the scalp, like the nose, ears, eyebrows and chest.

Who is most likely to suffer from stubborn dandruff?

Stubborn dandruff is especially common in men in their twenties, thirties and forties.

Oilatum Scalp Treatment is suitable for people prone to stubborn dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and other itchy, flaky scalp conditions
