There are plenty of suspected causative factors that why the skin on the scalp sheds quite frequently as compared to is normal state.

Out of all the dandruff causes, the commonest cause for dandruff is the presence of something called the Malassezia furfur. This is fungus and is found on the skin’s surface on an individual suffering or not suffering from dandruff. The role of this fungus is metabolizing the human fats. When this fungus grows very quickly, then the normal pace of skin cell regeneration gets altered and dandruff starts appearing.
