I used to be a daily hair-washer (tendency to greasy roots/dry ends) until about a year ago when I started getting a really dry, flaky scalp. I tried only washing my hair every three days or so but that just resulted in 1 day of really dry, flaky scalp followed by two days of greasy hair. I tried T-Gel and H&S without any real improvement. The first time I tried Vosene (active ingredient salicylic acid) it seem to cure the problem completely but subsequent usage saw the dryness return as badly as ever Anyway, after a particularly bad reaction to vosene (after I experimented with leaving it in for about 10 minutes), in desperation I tried applying dilute (1:3) malt vinegar/water to my scalp after reading about pH level problems on the scalp causing dryness. It was like a miracle - after letting it sit for 10 minutes and then rinsing, my scalp went from looking like a snowfield to having a trace of flaking here and there. Now I just use any ordinary non-medicated shampoo and then rinse with vinegar. I still have some flaking but it is no-where near as bad as it was before. To be exact, I wash my hair every 2/3 days with ordinary shampoo or sometimes baby shampoo, rinse, spray scalp with dilute vinegar, let sit for 5 mins, rinse and then let hair dry mostly naturally. All that said, I'm pretty sure I don't have psoriasis or exzema so this may be of no use or interest to anyone with either condition.
