We’re back at it again—the rainy season. The rains have started badgering us again this September as it marks the beginning of the cold winds. But aside from Covid-19, scalp itch and flaking become acute during the rainy season. The rationale behind this is that the fungus causing it flourishes during the wet season. The monsoon provides an excellent breeding ground for Malassezia, a type of fungus that is most commonly associated with dandruff.
Solving dandruff problems can be tiring. Here are few tips to fight scalp itch and flakes during the cold season:
• Manage stress. Dandruff is most of the time caused by stress because fungus thrives when our immune system is compromised. Stressful periods very much affect our immune system, giving dandruff more reason to flourish on our skin. Try to relax and stay calm.
• Avoid fatty food. Stay away from chocolate and dairy, because it can cause an increase in dandruff production. Add your intake of food that is high in protein like soya and vitamin B such as green and leafy vegetables.
• Get a little sun. Getting a safe amount of sun can suppress the fungus. Take this wonderful advice but don’t forget to make your skin protected with sunscreen and follow minimum health requirements, as we’re still under quarantine.
The first thing to do is to look for a product that works well as a cleanser and a conditioner. Look for a product with Sage Leaf Extract as it cleanses and invigorates the scalp. This product should have quaternized polymers that deliver strong conditioning properties, allowing the hair to keep its normal moisture.
Both ingredients are in American Crew’s Anti-Dandruff + Sebum Control Shampoo. It is fortified with rosemary that regulates the production of sebum; peppermint and tea tree oil to soothe and refresh the scalp; and lastly, zinc pyrithione helps in preventing itch and flakes associated with dandruff.
