Friederm zinc shampoo 150ml available in 0 pharmacies in Moscow and St. Petersburg

Dandruff always appears unexpectedly and at the wrong time. Just yesterday my hair looked neat and tidy, but today the entire back of my head and forehead are covered with small white “scales.” This condition is not a cosmetic defect, but a real disease that needs to be fought. However, to treat it you don’t have to take pills; just choose an effective anti-dandruff shampoo.

How to do it right? What components must be included in the composition of a medicinal product? And how to use it to get rid of the problem as soon as possible? The FAN journalist looked into these issues and compiled a rating of anti-dandruff shampoos, based on reviews from users and experts.

Composition and positive qualities

The effective result of using shampoo largely depends on the components it contains. They help to reduce the symptoms of the disease (seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff). The product contains the following ingredients:

Triethanolamine lauryl sulfate, PEG-8 distearate. The substance foams well and can get rid of various contaminants (dandruff, dust). Hair becomes well-groomed and retains its excellent appearance for a long time. There is no damage to the curls.
Monoethanolamide. Thanks to the substance, the shampoo acquires the necessary thickness.

Both components instantly eliminate any impurities and can be used for all hair types.

Main medicinal components:

Zinc pyrithione. A chemical element with antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It fights pathogenic microflora that causes various dermatological pathologies. The substance makes hair beautiful, reduces itching and burning on the scalp.
Gum. Enhances the effectiveness of zinc. The substance can prevent hair loss.

Together, all the main and additional components make the product effective and harmless. Reviews about Friederm Zinc anti-dandruff shampoo are completely positive. It helps in the treatment of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.

Causes of dandruff

These unsightly white flakes covering the hair roots are nothing more than dead skin particles. Normally, the epidermis of the head is completely renewed in 28 days. Cells on the surface die and are removed naturally: when combing your hair, washing your hair.

As a rule, this process occurs unnoticed, since the “scales” of the skin are very small and light. But sometimes there are too many of them, and they attract attention.

Dry scalp

Sometimes this happens due to improper hair care: frequent coloring, daily hair washing, regular hair drying. In this case, the skin dries out and regeneration processes slow down. It loses elasticity and the ability to nourish hair follicles.

Signs of excessive dryness of the scalp include thinning hair, loss of shine, and can often be bothered by itching and a burning sensation. One of the symptoms of excessive grooming is dry dandruff: its flakes are small and white, and there are a lot of them.

Advice . If your scalp is excessively dry, you need to reconsider your hair care: reduce the frequency of coloring, wash your hair no more than once every 2 days, use a hair dryer only as needed, and allow your hair to dry naturally as often as possible. Caring masks and balms should not be applied to the scalp: they clog pores, which can also cause dry dandruff.

Fungal development

But often the flakes on the head do not look like small light scales. If they are large, yellow and literally stick to the hair roots, making it impossible to brush them off, this is not a cosmetic defect, but a fungal disease. Its cause is the active proliferation of the malassezia fungus.

This fungus is one of the inhabitants of the scalp microbiome. In the normal condition of the skin, the number of fungal colonies is small; its development is suppressed by bacteria friendly to human health. But if there are health problems, the fungus can begin to actively multiply. The reason for this:

metabolic diseases;
infectious diseases;
hereditary factors;
hair care disorders;
Excessive oily scalp.

As a rule, the development of fungus is facilitated by excessive care of the scalp with a tendency to oily hair. Frequent washing disrupts the skin's balance, causing it to become even oilier. Under these conditions, the fungus multiplies especially actively: it causes accelerated death of epidermal cells and their gluing. The scales absorb sebum and stick to the hair roots, which become greasy and untidy within a couple of hours after the shower.

Fact . For oily seborrhea, it is necessary to use medicated anti-dandruff shampoo. It will help suppress the development of malassezia fungus and normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands.
