Can deep cleaning remove dandruff? Experts crack the myth of dandruff 3

In winter, annoying dandruff always makes your shoulders covered with "snow", which makes you feel ashamed and embarrassed? Dermatologists point out that the recurring dandruff problem, in addition to greatly reducing people's external image, is accompanied by itching when symptoms appear, which is even more unbearable. What should I do to regain my refreshing scalp? Experts said that in fact, the key is to break three common anti-dandruff misunderstandings!

Is dandruff good in winter? It turns out that the key reason is it ~

Why is it easy to get oil in summer and dandruff in winter? Dermatologist Zhao Zhaoming said that this is because the temperature in winter is low and the metabolic rate of the human body slows down, which leads to the decline of blood and lymphatic circulation, and the scalp is easy to become dry and tight, and the skin is more sensitive.

In this case, if people often take a hot bath because of the cold weather, it will be easy to reduce the moisture and fat content of the scalp for a long time, and naturally there will be dry itching, cuticle shedding, desquamation and other phenomena. Therefore, it is suggested that if people want to prevent scalp itching and dandruff flying all over the sky in winter, it is best to control the water temperature between 38 ~ 45℃ when taking a bath.

Is dandruff handled correctly? Dermatologists uncover three myths

Since the occurrence of dandruff is related to the lack of water and oil on the scalp, many people will definitely think: "Don't wash your hair in winter" or "do a deep cleaning" and "apply hair care oil on the scalp" will also help improve the dandruff problem? In this regard, Dr. Zhao Zhaoming explained that the above problems are also common clinical questions of patients, but the above concepts are not completely correct!

Myth 1/ Do a deep scalp cleaning and dandruff will naturally stop coming?

Many people often think that since facial skin care needs deep cleaning and exfoliation, the scalp care policy should be the same, right? But in fact, excessive cleaning may wash away the protective layer of the scalp itself, making the scalp dry and sensitive, but it is easy to increase dandruff.

Myth 2/Wash your hair less in winter to keep your scalp oily?

Although excessive cleaning really makes the scalp more sensitive, you can't help but wash your hair! Dr. Zhao Zhaoming emphasized that the recommended shampoo frequency will be different according to everyone's physique and scalp oil condition.

However, due to the serious air pollution problem, normal people had better wash their hair once every two days. Even friends with extremely dry scalp are not advised not to wash their hair for more than 4 days. Especially for cyclists or friends who often go out for running, sweating and oily skin, it is best to wash their hair every day.

Myth 3/ Dandruff is caused by the lack of oil on the scalp. Is it helpful to apply hair care oil to the scalp?

Proper application of hair oil on hair shaft can really help to improve the problems of bifurcation and knotting caused by keratin defect and dryness of hair tail. But it is worth noting that this maintenance method does not apply to the scalp. If people apply hair oil to the scalp, it will block hair follicles and cuticles and increase the burden on the scalp.

Don't want to "snow" Keep in mind four principles to improve dandruff problem

Dr Zhao Zhaoming also mentioned that it is not difficult to improve the dandruff problem. As long as you keep in mind the following four principles in your daily life and diet, it will naturally help to keep your scalp healthy and prevent dandruff from recurring:

Principle 1/ Pay attention to scalp cleaning:

As long as you sweat and wear a helmet for a long time, it is still recommended to develop the habit of cleaning every day. At the same time, pay attention to avoid excessive water temperature during cleaning, which will help reduce dandruff.

Principle 2/ Eat a balanced diet with less emphasis on taste:

Foods that are too spicy, too hot, and have a heavy taste are likely to cause excessive excitement of human skin sympathetic nerves and abnormal secretion of sebaceous glands, which greatly increases the incidence of dandruff.

Principle 3/ Moderate decompression and relaxation:

Being in a high-pressure environment for a long time will not only make the skin tired and dull, but also lead to abnormal metabolic rate and affect scalp health.

Principle 4/ Do not stay up late for normal work and rest:

Neuroconductive substances produced by being too tired, staying up late and not getting enough sleep will also secrete more oil from sebum, which will nourish the growth of scalp microorganisms and lead to dandruff.

Dermatologists are small:

Dr. Zhao Zhaoming also reminded that dandruff can be divided into physiological dandruff and pathological dandruff according to different forms (caused by abnormal immune mechanism of human body such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis).

Once people find that the symptoms of scalp desquamation have not improved after adjusting their diet and living habits according to the above methods, it is best to seek the assistance of professional dermatologists as soon as possible to clarify the reasons and treat the symptoms.
