There is no easy way to fight this problem, unfortunately.
I suggest you see a dermatologist.

I agree. You might even just talk to a nurse. I know there are some over the counter items you can use.

thanks i will look into that

try using a clarifying shampoo and a moisturizing conditioner :] if that doesn't work, then you might want to seek a dermatologists advice as irmati and z2i said ;]

Instead of using conditioner daily I would use a weightless conditioner. As for the flaking I don't really know of a product that would help but getting dermalogical help would be good. Oh, and for the oily roots I would suggest using a dry shampoo on the days you don't shampoo. It'll really help to absorb oil and make you hair look clean.

Try using anything with Tea Tree oil, it will absorb any of the extra oil you may have while also adding moisture to your scalp and hair, and getting rid of flakes!
