Castor oil massaged into scalp softens the plaque and is healing/moisturizing. Might want to doe that pre-shampoo and cover your head, let it soak in. Castor oil is very healing and a mild anti parasitic.

don't pull or cut off protruding psoriasis. I use gentle circular motions, using the back of my nails going up. I do not come down on crust with the sharp part of my nails. I used to punish my psoriasis trying to force it out - I lost a lot of my hair with scrub brushes make to remove build up - so I don't recommend those implements. Syalic (not spelled right) acids on your scalp covered for 1/2 hr should do a great job loosening. Castor oil covering your scalp for 1/2 also loosens them.

I use a good conditioner with biotin and it softens the plaque. Towel dry hair. Gently comb hair.

I cut my hair all off. It's the only way I can manage my scalp. I then take a soft comb and scrap it out. It's more difficult for women. You will lose some hair if it's not very short.
