Formation of skin cells takes place on the scalp and they shed as part of a normal process. However, due to the presence of dandruff, this skin shedding process starts taking place at a faster rate since oil present in the scalp causes these skin cells to form clumps and appear as white flakes. The causes of dandruff are many including dry skin, stress, medical conditions, sensitivity to certain hair products, skin conditions such as eczema, an improper diet, and an oily scalp to name a few.
