What Are the Treatments for a Dry Flaky Scalp?
A dry, flaky and itchy scalp can be caused by a few different conditions. Dandruff, the most common condition with these symptoms, occurs when the renewal of skin cells on the scalp is accelerated and more apparent. Seborrheic dermatitis, a form of dandruff, can make hair look greasy and flaky. Scalp psoriasis is very similar to seborrheic dermatitis, but produces larger flakes, and can affect other parts of the body.
