Dandruff could be due to fungal infection on scalp and dry scalp also could be a reason. Although it is very easily treatable, there are a few other conditions which could resemble like dandruff, hence I would recommend u to see a dermatologist for best treatment. It is very unlikely to be related to any allergies
