Selsun Blue that is. And that poo poo isn't working. I have an itchy flaky scalp and probably fungus, psoriasis and maybe scabies(?). I can't wear dark shirts because of the embarrassment. I'm basically trapped in my own home with extreme social anxiety until this gets figured out. I'm calling upon the collective goon experience to help me cure this horrifying condition. Thank you and bless.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
Shave your head and the dry scalp will clear up in days. No shampoo ever really works against hardcore dandruff. Your only option is to nuke it all to the ground. Or you can just deal with it. Impromptu snowstorms are HILARIOUS and very sexually attractive.

I don't know anything about fungus or scabies tho.

you might have the zeeka. he good news is it will clear up on it's own, the bad news is your head will shrink and become deformed. avoid traveling to any south american villages your head may be taken as a trophy or for voodoo.

You are starting to go bald. Shedding of the dermal follicles happens and no amount of salt or tar shampoo will stop it.

Best thing you can do is to shave your head, like with a Bic, then use standard moisturizer. There is probably nothing you can do at this point, take some nice pictures to show your children from when you had hair.

I'm not as versed in these terrible skin conditions like a lot of people are. Usually i'm the one glowing from radiant good health and strong sexual appetites and a good strong physique. These deformities are a mystery to me.

You can get doctor prescription tar shampoo. It didn't work for me, but its expensive and people swear by it.

I wouldve thought your facewould be white. Are you sure it was plaster? Maybe it was placenta of paris??? What is your dad doing!

OP you should hydrate more. Dry scalp is caused by dehydration. Drink a gallon of water every hour on the hour for an entire day and your scalp will clear up lickety split.

See here's the issue. I want to write a YA trilogy based on my life experiences (it will be quite jaunty). Now when the premiere of the movie (part one) takes place I want to wear a nice charcoal suit with a red tie. How the hell am I supposed to wear a charcoal suit if there's skin flakes all over the shoulders and collar? Can you imagine how loving embarrassing that would be. I can't even start writing the things until I get this problem taken care of.

Don't use that Alka selsun poo poo, don't use any shampoo for a while. Just take baths and soak your scalp. Let your hair oils build up. Massage and groom. Shampoo with mild soap and olive oil in a week. It's ashy season unfortunately. :smith:

Set the story in the arctic where it's always snowing. No one will notice the dandruff.

If you want to get rid of dandruff flakes you gotta pray to Flaketo: the God of Scalp Flakes.

All you gotta do is put your scalp flakes under your pillow at night and he will come and leave you a nickle for your troubles.

Either the arctic or a magical land where it always snows.
