When you shower you're supposed to vigorous rub your scalp with your finger tips. Some people don't get taught how to do it.
[EDIT: P.S I once got rid of a psoriasis like skin irritation by giving it an even cover of yakult three times a day (once in the morning, once at lunch time, and once before bed). My theory on why this worked is that it reset the biome whilst forming a protective shell that deprived oxygen to the effected area.]
I have dandruff and I use a hairbrush to scrub my scalp with the shampoo. It seems to help but what also helps is swapping between medicated shampoos as eventually they stop working as well.
I sometimes do that when I have a bad bout of dandruff. Mostly out of OCD not because I knew that it was good practice. I'll look into that.
