Something on scalp?
When I press a finger to my scalp, these little black things often come back (on my finger). They look almost like extremely small hairs (they're kind of like very short black lines). Does anyone know what this is and is this something to be concerned about? (Side-note: I wash my hair every day, so I'm not sure if it could be dirt or something like that.) I've always had a flaky, itchy scalp- could it be correlated? Thank you.
