So yeah
Because of eczema I've been trying some eczema pills. One that I've tried for a year made me extremely sleepy, yikes. Tried another, it was worse, not only I felt dry as fuck constantly, but it made a dry rash on my head where I'm like 2cm of hairline that I hope will eventually grow back, but it's not looking good...
Either way, I've had issues with the skin on my head, and since I'm working at home until September, I decided to shave it all off so it's easier to tend the wounds. My hair was a goddamn mess anyways
On the upside, I actually don't look half bad with my head shaved, so if I end up losing more of my hair like a lot of my friends, so it wouldn't be so bad if I keep it shaved I guess :shrug:

Typos:
"Where I lost like 2cm of hairline"
The worst about it is that one side has a bigger loss than the other, also that side is still getting dry after all this time, so it's a battle of constantly applying some special cream, that's the most annoying part about this

@coolboymew Have you tried no product and cold water only?
@Kovaelin If I don't apply anything it gets dry. Just plain water doesn't help, it makes the dryness worse
A certain no-cortisone cream is the only thing that really works into making this part of the forehead not dry
Otherwise, cortisone cream ends up just making the skin harden a bit and dies
Before I found what works, I once had to basically scrape skin off of my forehead for an entire morning at work, not fun

@coolboymew Is it painful? Which shampoo/conditioner and cream do you use? I always hear about people talking about Blue.
@Kovaelin The dry spot? no, but it feels dry when it is. The rest of my wounds tho'? Yes. It doesn't help that years of this crap turned me into a picker
Otherwise I have some medicated tar shampoo, which is more easily appliable with my hair this short

@coolboymew Even a quick cold rinse at the end might help.
@coolboymew It must have been Joico Blue. I haven't tried it before. Lately, I've just been using cold water to rinse and shampooing only once every two weeks. Body chemistry adjusted pretty quickly, but I had some dryness for the first week.
