HELP! - Acne on Head

<< < (2/2)

Semi-Sly:
It looks like you have clogged pores that are trapping oil and then becoming infected.  I suggest keeping your scalp clean using a scrub and following up with the product that contains either peroxide or salicylic acid something like seabreeze that we barbers use per disinfecting and cleaning skin you can buy it right over the counter at any Walgreens or drugstore it comes in three different strengths of salicylic acid and the brand name is Seabreeze
You should also resist the temptation to put any kind of lotion or moisturizer on your scalp because although it might feel good when it goes on, it contains oil and it will clog your pores.  Just  clean, clean clean and put nothing on the skin after it is clean

reddog:
I agree, the less products you put on your head the better. I apply witch hazel after shaving. I suffered for many years with scalp acne, and discovered it went away when I started shaving my head daily! Don't forget to change your pillow cases often, too.
