Hey,

I'm (M34) relatively new to this. When I shower and my scalp gets wet, I seem to have a lot of white/grey wax/gunk on my scalp. If I run my fingers down my scalp it gets stuck under my nails. When my scalp and run my hands down my scalp the substance is more like white powder/flakes. I assume it's sebum? But I seem to have absolutely loads of it.

1. What is this?
2. Why do I have so much of it ?
3. Is it a problem or should I just relax about it?
4. how do I reduce/get rid of it ?

I've read that it could be hormone related or maybe gut/diet related, but I don't know anything about that.

Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
