Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis
Hints and Tips
How to help manage your scalp condition...
Conceal scales on the scalp by choosing a hairstyle without a parting, and one which covers the hairline.
Avoid wearing dark or plain-coloured clothing on which scales will show up.
Carry a small clothes brush with you to brush off any scales that appear on your clothes.
Don't have your hair bleached, coloured or permed, as the chemicals used may irritate your scalp.
Try to resist the temptation to scratch your scalp when it itches - you may aggravate the condition.
Massage the scalp gently when you wash your hair, and rinse thoroughly before drying.
Do not scrape the scalp with your brush or comb.
If you have any questions, don't be shy. Just ask your physician.
