I’m fine immediately after showering, but it’s a mini-snowstorm if I go through my hair in the morning having showered the night before. Been that way for years, but far better than it was back when I used “anti-dandruff” shampoos that just made it worse. Hair is short, doesn’t feel oily or only slightly. Happens across a variety of shampoos I’ve tried, though I’ll admit I haven’t looked beyond the 3-in-1 body wash shampoo combos. Sorry if this is a bit unappealing. Anyone else have a sort of “baseline” amount of dandruff? Or found a solution to this?
Often what people call “dandruff” is not actually dandruff. You might have dry scalp, which causes flakyness and the dandruff shampoos do nothing to help (I’d argue they even make the dryness worse!)
In my case it was dandruff and what made a huge difference is to wash twice in a row (lather, rinse, repeat). I leave the shampoo in my head for a bit on the second wash while I do my other shower business.
