If you've seen the day just get away from you, you've likely ended it with a nighttime shower. No judgement; we've all dry shampooed the life out
It is most common for a yeast called Malassezia to fester on the scalp, which will lead to flakiness that can be misidentified as dandruff. If you're unsure, she recommends seeing a dermatologist.
Another reason to often put your wet tresses on your pillow is that it could result in small acne bumps or pustules , which can become itchy or painful to live with and are more commonly known as bacterial or fungal folliculitis.Dr. Sherber, however, tells the outlet that this is relatively common and happens when our hair follicles have become inflamed. As it is tricky to self-diagnose, seeing a dermatologist is recommended if you find yourself experiencing symptoms.
Now, before you think that's all, unfortunately, it's not. What can occur on your scalp from having a wet bedhead can also pop up on the face as fungal acne, as well as the upper body, especially if you have longer hair that may shuffle against your shoulders, neck, back, or beyond. "I've diagnosed patients with this and traced the cause to their sleeping with their face on a damp pillow caused by going to bed with wet hair," Dr. Sherber explains.This presents as small red bumps, which may look like acne if caused by Malassezia. Similar to the scalp, it is a form of follictus.
Next time I hit snooze and think, 'I'll just shower later,' I'll be swiftly reminded of the word 'Malassezia.' Or else force myself to put a hairdryer on my hair before drifting off.
