Can washing ur hair less, make it dry? i used to wash 3 times week. now, 2 times. i seem to have dandruff now

Dandruff: By washing your hair three times a week the dandruff was kept under control. By changing to twice a week, this does not control you dandruff. Return to washing your hair three times a week to control your dandruff.
