Has your scalp been itching constantly? Do you come across flaking skin and pus-filled boils whenever you feel your scalp? You probably have a fungal scalp infection.
When the dead skin cells combine with oil and pollutants, they create the perfect breeding ground for fungus. Such fungal infections are most often caused due to poor scalp hygiene, i.e., not washing your hair regularly. Using styling products and other harsh chemicals on your hair can worsen such infections.
