What does dandruff look like on the scalp?

On the scalp, dandruff typically appears as white or grayish flakes. If your scalp is oily, they might be more yellowish and stickier. Sometimes the scalp itself looks dry, red, or inflamed. Before buying expensive treatments, try a good anti-dandruff shampoo for a few weeks, and see if that helps. Save your money for what really works.

Beti, on the scalp, dandruff is seen as dry, white flakes, sometimes like little patches. If the scalp is very oily, they can be a bit yellow too. It can also make the scalp look red and feel itchy. My mother used to say neem oil and dahi helps, but for stubborn issues, a doctor's advice is good.

Haan, scalp pe toh it's like small-small white patches na. Sometimes thoda yellowish bhi, especially agar oily scalp hai. Aur red-red bhi lagta hai jahan scratching zyada hoti hai. Makes your head itch like crazy. Regular headwash se thoda relief milta hai.

For my son, on his scalp, it looks like small, dry, white flakes mostly, sometimes spread out. If he scratches too much, it gets red. And sometimes, especially when he hasn't washed his hair properly, it looks a bit yellowish and clumpy. It's really annoying for him. We make sure he uses a mild anti-dandruff shampoo regularly.
