There are diseases attacking other parts OF
the body which are similar to dandruf. Multi
tudes Of scales form. When they are brushed
of, more scales appear.
A disease forming scales in the hair becomes
doubly disagreeable. 1t cannot be dealt with as
it can on exposed surface. The scales pile up
on the scalp, cling to the roots Of the hair, and
produce a disagreeable mess.
In dandruff if the scales are permitted to ac-
cumulate, there will follow more irritation and
itching of the scalp. This makes an annoying
symptom.
The oil-producing glands Of the scalp are over
active in the dandruff disease. This increased
activity causes excessive oiliness of the hair and,
