      These are large flakes of dead skin. This can be a result of types of dermatitis, stress or washing your hair too much.

      Dandruff is dead dry skin that has come from your scalp. As it flakes off some can get caught in your hair or dust off onto your clothes…

      You can also sometimes get dandruff if you get an infection on the skin of your scalp, or if you get sunburn and the skins gets dry and flakes a little.
