How to Get Rid of Red Patches on Top of Head

Does the the top of your head look like a patchy, irritated roadmap?

Whether it’s flaky skin on top of head, a stubborn dry patch, or itchy red head patches that simply refuse to behave, we feel your frustration! If you’ve tried every greasy lotion, harsh medicated wash, or fancy oil under the sun with zero luck, take a deep breath. 

You aren't alone, and you aren't out of options.

We have a real story about real results featuring Bob, who had a stubborn set of red scaly flaky patches on top of his head, and how Bedrock Balm, our clean zinc balm saved the day.

When Bob first noticed the persistent red patches on top of his head, he thought it was just a temporary dry spell. But weeks turned into months, and the spot evolved into a raised, scaly, and constantly itchy red patch. It was uncomfortable, noticeable, and completely unbothered by standard over-the-counter creams.

Nothing would work.

Enter Bedrock Balm. Bob decided to keep it simple and consistent by applying a smooth layer of Bedrock Balm regularly to the redness on top of his head. He saw our pure, soothing botanical nourishment paired with high-potency zinc oxide at work. Slowly but surely, the raw redness cooled down, the scaly texture smoothed out.

Here is the text message and original photo proof from Bob showing how our targeted, barrier-supporting skin care really works!

The scalp is full of oil glands and delicate hair follicles, making it prone to stress, moisture barrier damage, and buildup. A lack of moisture frequently leads to a raw patch that easily gets irritated. 

So, why did Bedrock Balm succeed where everything else failed Bob? It all comes down to clean, purposeful ingredients formulated without synthetic fillers or watered-down additives.

The star of our formula is 20% non-nano zinc oxide, a natural skin protector that cools redness, calms raw skin, and shields damaged dry patches while supporting natural recovery. We blend this with camellia seed oil, which is rich in vitamins and omega fatty acids to deeply hydrate flaky skin. We also add rosehip seed oil to nourish rough, scaly skin texture, calendula flower extract to soothe extreme discomfort, and meadowfoam seed oil with vitamin E to lock in long-lasting moisture and create a protective cushion against environmental irritants.

Getting baldness irritation back to a smooth, comfortable baseline is simple when you stay consistent. First, cleanse gently, then gently pat the area dry with a soft towel. Second, scoop a small amount of Bedrock Balm onto clean fingertips and dab it directly onto the red patch on top of your head, gently pressing it into the scaly or flaky skin. Third, maintain consistency by applying the balm regularly once or twice daily to keep the skin barrier protected and nourished until your scalp stays calm.

Give your skin the 20% zinc oxide barrier support it needs to feel smooth and comfortable again.
