Dandruff is a category of flaky skin on the scalp. Regular dandruff is just the scalp exfoliating. BUT

Fungus: many times this is the underlying cause for many scalp problems.

Sometimes, it is Eczema, Psoriasis, or Yeast Infection.

A.D.A.M. Medical Encyclopedia: caused by "a yeast called malassezia."

So when dandruff won't go away...consider those conditions.

For this reason, never share your hairbrush, comb, or other hair grooming items.

Clean your grooming items, disinfect too.

Don't leave any soap residue when shampooing or using conditioner...rinse completely.

Try a different shampoo and conditioner.
