Wikipedia definition
2. DandruffDandruff (Latin: Pityriasis simplex capillitii) is the shedding of dead skin cells from the scalp. Dandruff is sometimes caused by frequent exposure to extreme heat and cold and is not to be confused with a simple dry scalp. As skin cells die a small amount of flaking is normal; about 487,000 cells/cm get released normally after detergent treatment.
