Ebesan says: I`m a male who`s very happy with my baldness “ I don`t want new hair. But, I do want my scalp to look better. It`s blotchy and discolored with different layers of skin. Is there a product, or procedure that can give me back my healthy scalp skin?
The Right Brain Responds:
Hi Eb, we`re always glad to answer questions from our male readers! Without actually examining your scalp it`s hard to say what`s going on upstairs, but here are 3 tips that might help:
1. Suds your skull
What are you washing your scalp with? Bar soap? That might be stripping your skin of essential oils. Try baby shampoo or a mild body wash.
2. Chrome your dome
Are you applying sunscreen to your head? You should! Even if you wear a hat most of the time you might be getting enough UV radiation to damage your skin. (What? You’re a guy and you don’t know anything about girly things like sunscreen??? Then you should read our previous post on sunscreen ingredients.
3. Soothe your scalp
If your skin is blotchy and scaly, you might try a hydrocortizone cream to see if that calms it down.
If none of these ideas help, we’d recommend seeing a dermatologist. And don’t be a stranger – write back and let us know if your scalp gets better.
