Sebum is a natural barrier against infections, softening the leather and preventing it from drying out. If the leather produces more secretion, the oily type of dandruff develops, and if there is enough sebum, then a dry type of dander develops.

With the combined form, both dry and oily areas are on the head at the same time. Seborrheic dermatitis is more often chronic and can be triggered by the following factors:

• Frequent stress, nervous strain, chronic fatigue.
• Improper nutrition.
