Sardi me hair fall badh jata hai aur log turant anti-dandruff shampoo start kar dete hain. Par pehle yeh samjho: dandruff aur dry scalp alag cheezein hain. Dry scalp me flakes chhote, white, powdery hote hain aur scalp tight/itchy feel hota hai. Dandruff me flakes often bigger, oily, yellowish ho sakte hain, aur scalp greasy bhi lag sakta hai—ye fungal overgrowth se linked hota hai.
Dry scalp ka fix: hydration. Mild shampoo, conditioner, aur light scalp oiling (bahut heavy nahi) helpful hota hai. Dandruff ka fix: medicated shampoo (ketoconazole/zinc pyrithione) 2–3 times weekly, 3–4 weeks tak.
Winter me hair fall ka ek aur factor hota hai: seasonal shedding + low protein + low iron/vitamin D. Isliye sirf shampoo se sab solve nahi hota.
Practical routine:
- Hair wash 2–3 times/week (too less = build-up, too much = dryness)
- Lukewarm water (hot water avoid)
- Protein daily diet me (dahi, dal, chana, soy)
- Scalp massage 5 min (gentle)
- Tight hairstyles + heat tools reduce
When to worry:
Agar clumps me hair aa raha ho, scalp me patches, severe itching/redness, ya 6–8 weeks continuous heavy hair fall—dermatologist consult karo. Right diagnosis se hi right product choose hota hai.
