how to get rid of flakes on scalp

Scalp is very hard and flaky. Just had a ht a month ago but had this problem prior. Looking for people who have had succeed treating a similar condition

I'd go see a dermatologist, they may have some remedies or prescriptions after they diagnose you.

Over the counter, Nizoral can be helpful.

You likely have scaling caused by seborrhoeic dermatitis, it's fairly common, but can be managed and mitigated.

Hi do you have crusting or very small specks of dry skin?

i had hairs implanted around the eyebrows and it’s still an issue for me after 7 years. 

You know when you wake up and get dry skin around the eyes well I also get small specks of  dry skin between the area of the top eyelid and below my eyebrows but I don’t ever recall having such issues before my initial procedure and I get dry skin not only around the transplanted hairs but on areas of skin below the eyebrow 

the problem is just made worse when I do exercise then the dry skin builds up and gets soggy so by rubbing it off the skin just spreads it

some kind of shampoo or moisturised will help but don’t be fooled that the shampoo is making it worse because i felt that at first but it’s actually  helping to lift it off  the skin and also do not scratch or rub it off as the dry skin would come back

Does anyone know how soon after a hair transplant one can use nizoral shampoo to treat this condition?

I'd email your specific surgeon to see what they advise, they may have a routine they prefer you adopt.

I've found Nizoral to be one of the only things that works for me. I use it in combination with a steroid when my itchy/flaky scalp has an outbreak, and it works wonders. 

I've also found that applying Raw Apple Cider Vinegar to my scalp works really well if you want a more holistic approach.

Same one! Clobetasol Propienate. It works wonders.
