My scalp has been dry and irritated. My scalp has a pinkish color to it. It is getting so dry that it feels as though it crystallizes. My scalp has a tightening sensation. I have no flaking at all. The left side is worse than the right side. I have been to two different clinics: one prescribed clobestasol propiopnate foam 0.05% . I used it for 2 weeks as directed. It helped some of the redness to diminish but it did not help the itching or severe dryness. The other one prescribed Ketoconazole 2% shampoo but it isn t working. The tightness and dryness of my scalp is driving me crazy. Around the first of August I had my hair colored at the beauty shop and I noticed it really burned my scalp, but I did not say anything to my beautician at the time. I did have a lot of flaking about two week after that, but I bought some T-Gel shampoo and it cleared up. Then this severe dryness jumped on me. Help! Thank you! Debbie Reed
