Best shampoo/conditioner for psoriasis

Wasn't sure where to post this.

I have psoriasis, luckily not visible, on my scalp. My hair is also prone to greasiness after 2 days. By the end of the second day I want to scratch my scalp off. Tried head and shoulders but found it ineffective. TGel worked a little but wasn't great and had the added bonus of making my hair feel awful and smell a bit nasty.

Does anyone know of a decent shampoo/conditioner or range which might work?

Thanks

It's quite pricey, but Bondi Boost shampoo & conditioner has done wonders for my scalp, and using a scalp brush when washing my hair was a game changer (they're pretty cheap on Amazon). I tried everything - coal tar, H&S, Nizoral, t-gel. This is the only one that worked. Good luck Toothless, it can be absolutely itchily miserable.

I find Jason for dandruff very good, also
Dentinox cradlecap shampoo.

Over the counter emulsions are good for pre wash moisturising..... or better still use a cheap Jason conditioner like coconut first to wet scalp, so you can then comb out plaques. Then wash everything out with the No SLS shampoos.
