Dry skin help ! damaging my scalp !?

For about 6 months now, i noticed that the scalp ontop of my forehead started flaking and turning white, so now on my head there is that spot that is white, you can see the white region on my scalp clearly. Also around my nose area its extremely dry and flaking when ever it is. I tried baby oil and lotion on the scalp and nose area, but it hasnt been working. Its turning my scalp white ! Its not itchy though, but very flaky.

Dry skin help ! damaging my scalp !?
Try using a dandruff shampoo, for every shampoo for 2 weeks, and then once a week for maintenance. Even use it as a face wash. That may help. My brother had something similar and this is what the dermatologist recommended.


If you do not get relief, see a doctor, it might be a fungal problem.
Reply:You should see a dermatologist. It may be a condition that would require medication.
Reply:as far as your scalp goes.. try mineral oil on your head at night and sleep with a shower cap on and wash in the morning. I paid a dermatologist allot of $$$ for this advise and it worked. Now with your nose try using a exfoliating scrub for the face, this should help within a few days. Good luck.
Reply:Your first mistake is using baby oil (and I have made it too)


baby oil is mineral oil which is distilled petroleum which is not helpful to your skin or your body! It hardens and dries you out over time -





First off increase your water - daily drink 8 glasses of 6-8 oz.


Take vitamins a e and c orally and use a shampoo for dandruff.





Use pure and natural products on your face with a hydrating soap - be sure to exfoliate twice a week on a clean face.


Add a toner [with hazel] and a pure/natural cream.


Repeat at night -
