Seborrhea: There are few reasons why you might have such a condition. Try using Shampoo containing Ketocanazole, as it helps in sorting few of these conditions. However, if the condition persists you might need to see your doctor or a skin specialist; you mentioned the word "Folliculitis" and this might be caused by infectious organisms.
