Is it safe to be going to the hairdressers with scalp psoriasis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Routine car such as cuts, shampoos, etc should not be an issue. You should avoid the application of chemicals such as perms or certain dyes without getting the approval of your dermatologist first.
