It could be due to dandruff. Apply Nizral (Ketoconazole) shampoo twice weekly for few weeks. Consult skin specialist/Trichologist (Hair specialist) for further advice and treatment.

Hi effective method to treat dandruff would be to combine 2 tablespoons of fresh apple juice with 2 tablespoons of warm water. Dab this on the hair and keep it for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. Do this for once or twice a week to cure dandruff. Apply ketoconazole lotion on your scalp once in a week.
