Okay, so I just pulled out the world's biggest dry patch of dead skin in the world off of my scalp. Anyway, I literally picked up one side of the patch with my nail and began to peel it to the other side. I had to take a rat tail comb and go under the skin to pull my hairs out to be able to continue to pull it without breaking it. I took pics, but I will only show them IF people seriously want to see them to help me to give suggestions. anyway, the piece of dead skin was almost 1 inch wide. I took a pic of it next to a ruler as well as while I was taking it off of my scalp.
I extremely dry hair and I don't have an oily scalp, so I don't think it's not Seborrheic dermatitis, because it doesn't ooze or anything like I've read about. It's not dandruff either. It doesn't stink and it's not yellow, reddish, or greenish either- it's tan. It doesn't come off wet either, it come off dry. Like when your skin is peeling and you pull the skin off. The skin under the dead skin is normal scalp. Also, this only happens at the front of my head about an inch from my hairline. I have no idea why this happens. Does anyone have a remedy?
Last time I had a flare up- a few years ago, I was prescribed a special shampoo that worked- but it's so expensive for a small bottle. I need a remedy for this mess. I'd be ever so greatful if someone could help me.
