Anyone else have issues with getting their hair cut when they have psoriasis?

My fiance has severe psoriasis. It is especially bad on his scalp. Of course, he is extremely self-conscious about his skin and is easily embarrassed when people point out his "spots." To make things worse, he recently wanted to get his hair cut so that he could find a better job. After a day and a half of calling every salon in town, I found only three who would cut his hair...and of those three, one agreed very grudgingly. I guess my question is this: are there any other psoriasis sufferers (or loved ones of those with psoriasis) who have this same problem? Also, if there are any hair care specialists out there, would you have a problem with cutting the hair of a person with psoriasis?

I don't have this problem: a friend of mine cuts my hair. And my psoriasis (scalp, knees and elbows) has not re-appeared since I treated it with Champori cream and spray a year and a half ago. I suggest that your fiance should try it, too.



Best,



Bernadette

I have severe psoriasis on my scalp as well. There is no reason that someone should refuse to cut his hair. It is not contagious, it just doesn't look pleasing. I would just go to get his hair cut, and when you get there, tell them, "just so you know, I have psoriais on my scalp. " That way they aren't surprised when they see it.
