Will dandruff have an impact on hair health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hairloss and Dandruf: If dandruff is bad and chronic enough, it can lead to thinning and shedding of the hair. It can also cause secondary bacterial infections which results in itchy acne-type bumps in the scalp. See a dermatologist for help if this is a problem for you.
