During the winter seasons your skin and scalp generally turn dry. The dead cells from the scalp take a white powdery form and begin falling. So, you have to keep your scalp moisturized to get rid of dandruff. Winters mean a lot of itchy dandruff. It’s almost heartbreaking to see the shower drains getting clogged by our hair. And this is enough to scare any man and woman who actually love their tresses. But what is the reason behind dry scalp during winters and excessive hair loss? And apart from using harsh anti-dandruff chemical shampoos, are there any simpler ways to avoid hair fall and dandruff? Although dandruff is generally a year-round problem, for some unknown reason it worsens in winter. The cold weather strips moisture from your scalp making it excessively dry and tends to aggravate scalp flaking. However, you can easily prevent dandruff in winter with appropriate treatment. Although the stores are flooded with anti-dandruff shampoos, overuse of these products tends to damage the hair follicles in the long run. Dandruff is a common problem faced by almost all. Different people can get dandruff because of different reasons. There can be several causes of more dandruff in winter:
• Dry skin

• Skin diseases
• Long-term medication or high steroid dosage
• Malassezia
• Mental stress.
Fortunately, you can easily protect your scalp from recurrent dandruff breakout during the cold months with some easy home remedies that apart from treating the scalp condition also help in nourishing the tresses.
