You're right, Samantha, there can be many causes of dandruff, and it's important that anyone suffering from excess dandruff find the right cause for their condition in order to treat it properly. Thanks for your tips!

Dandruff can be caused by a mild infection on the scalp or damage to the scalp. If the dandruff was caused just by dryness then hair moisturizer should fix it up, a diet rich in nuts, omega oils etc. Dandruff that is not caused by dryness requires a medicated shampoo, alternatively a herbal shampoo with anti fungal properties such as one containing oregano, neem, or aloe could help. It isn't always necessary to use harsh chemical or clinical shampoos. The problem could even be the shampoo itself! For example I am sensitive to the sulfates found in most shampoos (a very harsh chemical, many people are sensitive to it, different shampoos vary in the amounts they contain) I now use a sulfate free shampoo (Tigi Bedhead) and the problem with irritation has faded. I use a neem shampoo twice a week to repel head lice (I work in a primary school) and find that it sooths my scalp on contact!

Eli - First, be sure you are eating a diet for healthy hair and drinking plenty of water to keep your hair nourished. Next, be sure to use a good conditioner regularly, and consider a leave-in conditioner to help control the frizz during the day. You will also want to get any split ends trimmed off so the damage isn't noticeable. If your hair is still dry, consider a moisturizing shampoo and regular hot oil treatments for intense conditioning.

Annie - You may want to consult a dermatologist or your regular physician to be sure your dandruff is not being caused by an underlying medical condition. Be sure your scalp is moisturized and protected from the sun but without being too oily, and consider dandruff control hair products as well -- a dermatologist may also be able to recommend prescription shampoos and other products to control heavier dandruff.
