Acne on head

[David]

...seriously how many people look at the back of someone's head.

Probably enough that you wouldn't wear a sticky note back there that reads, "Honk if you're horny."

Well that is a little bit different Rob .

Well I appreciate all of your advice, I finally made it into a dermatologist, after 2 canceled appointments from being stuck over at work, He has me using Neutrogena oil free, and 2 prescription topical creams, Ive been using this for about a week and I think its starting to work pretty well. I also have a prescription pill that he gave me I started it today, I dont really think I need it but i'll take it and see how it goes.... The neutrogena and the topical stuff definately is drying my scalp out a bit, I assume its still cool to use a moisturizer, or would that be working against what Im trying to do?  well thanks for all the advice I'll keep you posted

I would refer to Dr Noner on this, but I don't see why it wouldn't hurt.

I'd check with yer dermatologist first, just in case. You never know what might interfere with what you're on already

The pill is proabably an antibiotic. Is it tetracycline? Def check w/ the doc about the moisturizer. The topical stuff is proabably to help clear out the sebum and treat the blemishes you already have along with prevention- adding more stuff to it might counteract it.

If I were you I would wait for Noner MD though

When I'm standing in a long line up at the grocery store and have already finished reading the front page of world news and the inquirer and looked at the entire selection of candy wrappers, that's when I start studying the backs of heads in front of me.  It's amazing what people with hair have in there.  Summer's best...

Before I shaved, I used a few shampoos to keep dandruff under control.  Now that I'm shaved, should I keep using them?  Do dandruff shampoos work on the scalp or the hair?  How about using shampoo instead of soap on your head?

Cbuck, welcome to the group, bro!  For dry scalp I would recommend  ditching the shampoo and start using a lotion as an aftershave, like headslick works great for me, but I think other here are also liking Matte for men.

I use Nivea for Men Aftershave Balm, with Aloe (little white, square bottle).....works great!

Yeah... and there is also that stuff.
