I have a bad habit [View all]

That comes and goes. Haven't had a problem with it in over a year.

I pick my skin,on my scalp on my fingers. I've been good about the fingers but my scalp looks like hell.
I got some salycilic acid shampoo to get rid of excess oil, I wash my hair everyday the scabs form I tell myself to leave it alone. But when I start to relax I catch myself digging at it. By time I realized that I was doing it a bunch of scabs are gone.
I dunno how to make this stop.

Btw when I go out from my house I wear a bandanna to cover my head.
And mask and sunglasses.
