White patches on scalp.
I tonsured my head today after many years and found these weird white patches on scalp. They are found on the top regions and not on the sides. What are they? I don't notice any loss of hair on the patches. The texture of the skin looks normal, but the color is a lot more pale than normal, almost looks white. Hair looks normal and black in these spots.
