Do you apply minoxidil? It can cause itching and redness. I don't see any cracks in your scalp or really anything out of the ordinary.

1) how often do you wash your hair?

2) finasteride can cause this, I have seen it first hand... it is usually associated with scalp inflammation. Itching, redness, stinging, tingling feelings

3) After you shower, you may benefit from applying a little bit of EMU oil. Just a little bit and rub it into the skin. Emu oil can help a little with the inflammation and dryness imo.

4) do you have any before finasteride pics? have you been experiencing increased hair loss while on finasteride?

I was washing my hair everyday but as of last week I wash my hair two days straight then take a day off and so on. I've heard of emu oil I do plan on buying some of that stuff. If you look at my profile I posted a thread about my story. I feel ivebeen at baseline since I began treatment maybe minoxidil thicken up some hairs but not enough to make a cosmetic difference. My hairline was intact although has now receded
