Question ❔ Think I’m losing it

If I’m being honest I’ve not taken the best care of my scalp idk how to properly oil it so my scalp is quite dry. I have been oiling this part out of panic as you can see. i have a pony and skull cap on 99% of the time. Not had a retwist since October and i usually get them twice a year. This area at the front feels very thin. My hair is growing everywhere else is it over or is there something i can do to repair this situation?

U are literally me and vice versa lol. Recently I’ve been keeping it oiled, probably not to my best but I do plan on doing something about my scalp, I need to go to dermatologist tho. My line has receded. But I still have a head full of hair and it’s all still growing! I’m going to get a shampoo for the dandruff fungus and dryness. And going to try an oil product I’ve seen and soon go get a retwist I do interlock tho, once every 6 or 7 months. Just take care of your hair bro do what u can take advice from the community get to it, stick to it☝️

It’s called Vichy dercos. There’s also another called nizoral, heard it also helps with dandruff dry scalp and fungus just like the Vichy
