I would honestly wonder if this isn't the case for a lot of people... I have never had dandruff but I can't use anything with SLS or I break out in hives all over and eventually developed an excema like rash over my arms that just wouldn't go away. I struggled with it for YEARS before someone clued me in. Once I switched it all went away.

Now I use special shampoo and make my own soap... and couldn't be happier

I'm not discounting that some people have dandruff and it is an actual fungal issue, but I think there has to be some that are simply reacting to the SLS's in the shampoo.
