I have psoriasis on my scalp. I want to know if it is safe for me to use hair gel/spray/whatnot. Also, is it okay to color your hair if you have this skin condition? If the answer to the above is “no,” then once my psoriasis has cleared up for a bit is it safe to begin using these things again, or will I be banned from hair products for life now that I have it?

Skip the gels/sprays/whatnots. You can probably color your hair but it may burn in the areas of the psoriasis since that is considered an open wound.
Temporary rinses (Roux) can be found at Sally’s until you clear up the problem.
I would first suggest consulting a dermatologist. My opinion is not to use any products containing alcohol and treat your scalp by saturating with tea tree oil.
Check out product at the health food store or maybe try Almay.
Scalp psoriasis appears as dandruff, and treatments can leave your scalp more sensitive. There are a variety of products available on the market that are designed to reduce the amount of skin flakes and the scalp itching. Try consulting your doctor about it just to be on the safe side.
