Dry Scalp vs Dandruff
Though many think they are one and the same this is not true. While dandruff and dry scalp share some of the same symptoms they are undoubtedly different. Yeast production from your scalp is the cause of dandruff. Seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff sheds yellowish flakes that stick in your strands of hair. You may also endure oily or red scalp along with dandruff.
On the other hand, dry scalp, is just that, dry scalp. The flakes due to dry scalp alone will be smaller and dry. They will easily shake out of your locks, unlike the sticky dandruff flakes. The approach for treatment on these two conditions will not be the same as the causes differ.
