    GlossaryDandruff Shampoo

    Dandruff shampoo is a specialized hair care product formulated to treat dandruff, a common scalp condition characterized by flaking and itching. These shampoos often contain active ingredients such as zinc pyrithione, ketoconazole, or selenium sulfide, which help to reduce the growth of yeast and alleviate inflammation on the scalp. While primarily aimed at managing dandruff, maintaining a healthy scalp environment can also be relevant to hair loss, as an unhealthy scalp may contribute to hair thinning or shedding. Key distinguishing characteristics of dandruff shampoos include their specific formulations targeting scalp health, as well as their ability to soothe irritation and reduce visible flakes.
