is it the end of this week did not have time to go through complete dehydration, as the
nature intended. The result is a mass of sticky, often fatty
whitish-yellowish scales, which far exceeds the number of
norm why becomes noticeable to the naked eye. In general on
first glance, all is clear enough: picked up a fungus - wait for dandruff.
