Having dandruff can cause negative impacts to your quality of life, including:
- Physical discomfort eg. Itching1
- Diminishes self-confidence eg. Making you feel socially embarrassed1
- Affects hair quality eg. Narrower, brittle hair with less shine2
Without proper control and consistent maintenance, dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis can be a recurring problem1,3,4.
