Hi snq,
Thanks for your question, and for finding EmpowHER. Here is a link that explains the common causes and risks for dandruff (suborrheic dermatitis), hope it helps!

If you have it and it's a particularly bothersome case, you can visit with a dermatologist to help find a treatment that works for you. There also are many over-the-counter treatments (shampoos or lotions) that you can try. Treatment often takes a few weeks or longer, and may need to be repeated if the condition comes back.
Good luck and let us know how you are doing.
