TOP best anti-dandruff shampoos 2025 for people with dandruff, fungus, itching

1. What is dandruff?

Dandruff is a condition in which the scalp flakes off in small white flakes (dry dandruff) or large flakes (oily dandruff), often accompanied by an uncomfortable itching sensation. This is not a dangerous condition, but if not treated properly, dandruff can lead to hair loss, scalp inflammation or infection due to excessive scratching.

Malassezia (formerly known as Pityrosporum) is the main cause of dandruff. This yeast lives naturally on the scalp. When it encounters favorable conditions such as the scalp secreting a lot of sebum, sweat or high temperatures, it will multiply excessively, stimulating the scalp, causing flaking, dandruff and severe itching.

Dandruff causes loss of aesthetics, affecting life and activities.

Dandruff does not discriminate by gender or age. However, statistics show that the rate of dandruff in men is higher than that of women, especially in people who often sweat, wear helmets or live in hot and humid climates like Vietnam, this condition is more likely to flare up. Understanding dandruff is the first step to choosing the right solution, and that is why you need a specialized shampoo.

2. Why should you choose a specialized anti-dandruff shampoo?
