How long should you leave psoriasis foam on your scalp before you can wash your hair?
I have psoriasis on my scalp which tends to be worse in the winter and is also triggered by stress. The foam works great on my scalp but makes my hair feel gross when the foam dries. How long after applying the foam is it okay for me to wash my hair without washing off the foam too?
Or should you wash and dry your hair before putting the foam on?

I assume you are talking about Olux foam. And since you are female, have much longer hair than I do. I have found it works best on a freshly washed scalp and if you can tolerate it, left on over night. I wear a stocking cap to bed when I have to do that so it doesn’t get on my pillows. I know it’s a pain but….. At the least it takes a good 10-15 mins to soak in to your skin effectively.
