I think my DH gave me dandruff.
I never used to have it until he started using my brush. I read somewhere that dandruff can be caused by a fungus. He probably got that junk all over my brush and now I got it.
I wouldn't think so either but if DH got the fungus that can cause dandruff on my brush then couldn't I possibly get it?Originally Posted by butzie
Dandruff isn't contagious.
Dandruff isn't contagious, it's not like the flu. You probably think you have it because the flakes he left behind on your brush are now embedded in your hair.Originally Posted by luvmycat1

Your scalp may actually produce more oil to try to combat being dried out by shampoos. The more harsh the shampoo and the more often you wash your hair the more your scalp tries to fix the problem, that could lead to dandruff.Originally Posted by Dragoriana
what's weird is, they say it's that you have an oily scalp that you get flakes, but my scalp is dry.
hrm..
It very well could be my shampoo. I'm using some cheap 99 cent stuff.Originally Posted by strange_wings

Lay off on using hair sprays, gels, etc if you can and try a gentler shampoo. Maybe try not washing it every day if you can tolerate that.
Yea, those 99 cent shampoos are basically the same idea as carpet cleaners...they will dry out your scalp.Originally Posted by luvmycat1
