How do you get rid of dry,flaky,scalp buildup? This is sometimes thick and stubbon-help?

It responds to the over the counter products for a while ( stuff like Tgel-or tar based products for few days) but seems to come back-those products seem to dry out my hair and scalp more---Im tempted to shave my head!

It is thick at time you can almost peel a pieces off-i know this sounds awful but I am sure Im not the only one out here that has experienced it----do i shampoo more often--not as often--not at all--any info will be appreciated---maybe it will be the bald look for me after all--------thanks

my daughter gets this all the time and my hairdresser told me to buy a hot oil treatment and massage it in the scalp and let set about 15 to30 minutes and use one a least once a week it will keep your scalp from being so dry and the flakes and itching will go away and use a shampoo that has moisturizer in it and won't dry out yoour scalp

I scrape my psoriasis with a comb and then wash my hair with T-gel. It builds up again and again, but at least it feels cleaner for awhile.

I find that shampooing just once a week- unless its terribly itchy in which case twice is soothing- with tgel is enough, but I get a friend to oil my scalp regularly. Just plain olive oil, sometimes a drop of lavender or rosemary oil in it, use lots, and leave it on overnight before washing out. This has virtually cured it for me

Use a cap or so full of vinegar or baking soda when you wash your hair. As in every other time you wash your hair. This will get rid of build-up. Also, make sure you rinse your hair very well when you do shampoo. Buildup can also be brought on by using too much hair spray or products like moose and gel on your hair too. Hope this helps :)
