Sores on my head which appear to be like dandruff once they've flaked off

Good evening,
I wonder if you could help - I've been suffering with sores on my head which once they flake off appear to be almost like dandruff. I've tried anti dandruff shampoos and conditioners to no effect. I've also tried just using tea tree shampoo again with no noticible improvement. I have noticed that the sores seem to get worse when I am stressed or become obsessed by them? Have you any suggestions? I'm starting to get really embarrassed with this.

Answer:
Jo,
What you have is scalp dermatitis. Shampoos in most cases won't treat your symptoms since the active ingredients aren't in contact long enough.
I use and suggest our zinc and tea tree hair gel which remains in continual contact with your scalp.
It cleared mine up in two days and mine was so bad it had started to come down my forehead and sides of my nose etc.
I use regularly now, or when I see the symptoms returning.
Just apply like normal hair gel working into your scalp with fingertips. If you don't like the hold just run a comb or brush through your hair after it sets.
