Small, white scales, usually appearing on the scalp and hair, are a sign of:

dermatitis
eczema
herpes simplex
pityriasis

The correct answer is: pityriasis

Small, white scales are a common symptom of pityriasis, a skin condition that causes skin cells to build up and form dry, flaky patches. This typically occurs on the scalp and can also affect other areas of the body. While dermatitis and eczema can also cause flaky skin, they often present with redness and inflammation as well. Herpes simplex is a viral infection that typically causes painful, fluid-filled blisters, rather than dry, flaky scales.
