Dandruff and flaking are more common hair concerns than we think. But, do we really know how to differentiate them and which products to choose to combat them? Keep reading to learn if it’s dandruff or flaking: what they are and how to fight them.
differences between dandruff and flaking
Flaking is a natural process of scalp regeneration, characterized by small, white or transparent, dry flakes. A very dry scalp, for instance, produces excessive flaking that can sometimes be accompanied by itching. On the other hand, dandruff appears as scaling of the scalp’s dermis with larger, oily, yellowish flakes, often accompanied by itching and irritation.
why does dandruff appear?
The appearance of dandruff can be due to several factors, including:
· Stress and anxiety: Increases sebum production and can trigger dandruff.
· Seborrheic Dermatitis: Inflammation of the scalp that produces oily flakes.
· Reaction to products: Harsh or irritating shampoos can irritate a sensitive scalp.
· Hormonal changes: Life stages like puberty, pregnancy, or menopause can contribute to dandruff.
· A fungus from the Malassezia family can also be the cause of dandruff.
how to fight dandruff?
To effectively treat dandruff, it’s essential to adapt your hair care routine to the specific needs of your scalp. Instead of just using shampoos, you should use intensive treatments:
· Their main function is to treat specific concerns.
· Their ultra-concentrated formula helps the active ingredients penetrate more deeply and quickly into the scalp and follicle.
· Because they are applied at night and not rinsed out, they work much longer than shampoos, making them very effective.

what ingredients can help fight dandruff?
Anti-Dandruff Phyto Bioactive Molecule: A natural molecular compound extracted by biotechnology, ultra-effective against dandruff with long-lasting action. It quickly removes dandruff with 72 hours of action. Additionally, it is soothing, relieving itching. In fact, it reduces the release of the inflammation mediator that causes itching: histamine.
Bio Sulfur: An essential mineral that plays a key role in scalp health. Potent keratolytic, purifying, and antiseptic action. Helps calm redness and inflammation.
Multivitamin Complex 8: Provides a cocktail of 8 essential vitamins (A, B2, B5, B8, C, E, H, and PP) to the heart of the hair follicle. It helps regulate sebaceous glands; when excess sebum accumulates on the scalp, it clogs the follicle and prevents healthy hair growth, which over time results in thinning follicles and even hair loss. If there is too little sebum, the follicles and hair roots become malnourished. Over time, hair becomes dry and brittle, resulting in hair loss, so it’s optimal to have regulated sebaceous glands.
Brewer’s Yeast: Contains a high concentration of proteins, vitamins, and minerals, including Riboflavin - B2, Pyridoxine – B6, Inositol – B8, Biotin – B7, Folic Acid – B9, Magnesium, and Selenium, which strengthen hair structure, fight seborrhea, stimulate healthy hair growth, and prevent dandruff.
