I have several red spots on the top part of my back and some on my chest. Sometimes they're also a little itchy. Is it acne or something else? How can I get rid of them?! I'd really like to get rid of it soon since warm weather is here and I'll be wearing tank tops. Thanks in advance!!

It could be caused by greasy hair? I usually have my hair up on the second day after washing

Stop using conditioner for a while. That could help with it.

I personally don't think it could be that mostly because for a while my hair has been pretty dry.

You can still have dry greasy hair

Charlotte B. Oh then I guess it's possible! Sorry if it felt like I was trying to prove you wrong or something, not what I was trying to do! :)

One thing to try is washing your back after you have conditioned your hair - as conditioner can clog pores.
Also, something I found helped was Proactives body scrub

Shona S. I've thought about Proactive before but then I started seeing all these bad reviews on it? Kind of scared to use it now lol.

It could be bra sweat, make sure to scrub your back and not just let water run over it :)

I have never like proactive as I have sensitive skin and hate their face stuff, but I tried the body scrub and it was fine! :)

Use an exfoliating body wash. Put your hair up and wash then take it down and shampoo.
