I don't understand why anyone with a perfectly shaped dome would cover it with hair!

I have the same problem, though admittedly, I've been sly for less than a week now. I am hoping that keeping the hair off will improve the scalp a bit. I have heard that UV light, as was mentioned, can potentially potentially help. Given that I am a computer programmer who sits in a darkened office within a classified space all day (no windows
), sunlight is a rare treat for me.
I'll have to keep a lookout for Nizoral.

Another person with "The Heartbreak of Psoriasis" here. I shaved my head yesterday for the first time in about 2 months (between that I'd been keeping it clipped with a #0 once a week). I did it mainly because of the really bad dandruff, and when I shaved the weirdest thing happened. Apparently, the parts of my head without the psoriasis scales had gotten way more sun than the parts with the dandruff, so now I've got this weird pattern of mottled white patches over the front of my head where my scalp didn't tan.

fatbert, welcome to Sly Bald Guys! That's crazy that the portion of the sun was the section that didn't have psoriasis.

when I had hair I used Nizoral.. it cleared it after a few applications. as I mentioned in other threads I just recently shaved again after 2 months.. well before I shaved I shampood with nizoral for 5 days in a row.. once shaved no more psoriasis.. as long as I keep it sly I will not see it..

Just picked up some Nizoral at the grocery store today, which I am going to try out tonight. Like schro, I have
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seborrhoeic_dermatitis, which causes some nice ugly red flaky spots on my head and around my nose. I still have some 2.5% selenium sulfide solution, but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick as of late. Hopefully I can get it cleared up soon so I can finally post a good picture.

Just put some the size of dime in your hands... well perhaps more since no more hair.
leave it on for at least 5 min... ...
repeat tomorrow morning and night and the day after.. in that time frame I'm sure you will see a significant diff.. I also used it in my goaty..

Never really thought about sunlight having an effect on my scalp condition. Guess that makes sense, given the fact it was brutal in the winter. However, it's now a moot point as keeping the head shaved keeps the scalp healthy.
