Regardless of your ethnicity, dandruff originates from the same cause. However, you may need to select an anti-dandruff shampoo specific to your hair type.
Dandruff and hair types All hair types have the same basic structure, but not necessarily the same growth process:
- African hair: strands tend to grow closer to the scalp, in a curly spiral. This gives the impression of density.
- Asian hair: tends to grow faster and perpendicularly to the scalp, which gives it a finer appearance.
- European hair: grows obliquely to the scalp, with a slight curve.
These specificities have no impact on your vulnerability to dandruff, as it depends on the microorganism Malassezia Globosa, present on all scalps. However, they will determine the type of product to use.
For example, curly African hair tends to be dry, as the natural lipid film of the scalp struggles to reach the ends.
This is why, to treat dandruff, you must not only choose the best shampoo to get rid of dandruff, but also select the variant that suits your hair type.
Choose an effective anti-dandruff shampoo Regardless of your hair type, you need a shampoo containing an active ingredient with proven effectiveness.
All our anti-dandruff shampoos contain zinc pyrithione, whose effectiveness against dandruff and scalp protection has been tested and demonstrated by regulatory bodies worldwide.
It acts on the initial cause of the problem by inhibiting the multiplication of the microorganism responsible for dandruff, Malassezia Globosa.
