My scalp itches constantly. What would you recommend for an itchy scalp?

It could be build up of shampoos and conditioners or styling products. I know head and shoulders in the past has worked to stop and itchy scalp for me. Use of baking soda and a little vinegar, while showering, takes off that layer of build up from synthetic products.

Go really REALLY easy on the vinegar the first time. What you could do is dillute the vinegar to a 10/90% vinegar (or even witch hazel)/water solution. Use that, rinse.

Massage Baking Soda into it, rinse thoroughly. One note though, the baking soda, doesn't give the shine that shampoos adn conditioners do. I always use conditioner on my hair after using baking soda, but your hair will remain flat and have a 'matte' look.It will also feel a little bit rough, instead of silky.

BUT after multiple uses you shouldn't have an itchy scalp anymore. IF this doesn't solve the problem, the solution lies somewhere else. These are other possible reasons: Use of products like colorants, permanent solutions Dryness in your environment Illness Medications you are currently using Allergies Hairdryer.

There are several products you could use to relieve itchy scalp. Is your scalp oily or dry? That can determine what type of product to use.

Sometime itching is from dry scalp, so you'd use a special shampoo just for dry scalp. I did that and my condition got worse, because what was going on with me is that I had oily scalp and dandruff, which I assumed was from dryness, but it was the opposite problem. If you have dandruff along with itching then you can get Denorex, Neutrogena T-Gel, Head & Shoulders or even some good generic brands that will help with dandruff.

If your scalp is dry, you can try Nioxin Scalp Treatment shampoo which soothes, eliminates itching and moisurizes. If you are unsure if your condition is from dry or oily scalp, consult a physician before buying a shampoo to treat the condition. Good luck!

For an itchy scalp, I would suggest first trying an over the counter medicated shampoo such as Head & Shoulders. Wash your hair every other day and see if that helps. If not, you can talk with your doctor about your problem.

They often will recommend and perhaps prescribe a stronger shampoo. Let him look at your scalp to see if he can determine the problem. Diet can play a big role as well.

Try switching to a healthy, nutritious diet and drink plenty of water. Incorporate exercise into your daily routine. Men can cut their hair shorter, my brother had a scalp itch problem and shaved his head bald, which alleviated the problem and funny enough, as his hair grew back out, the scalp itch did not return.

Maybe you have a dry scalp, this is usually one of the causes of itchiness of the scalp. This is caused by an inflammatory condition called seborrheic dermatitis. The scalp become scaly and red and the condition is accompanied by dandruff.

Seborrheic dermatitis becomes worse during winter months and may bet better with limited sun exposure in the summer. These are some of the treatment options that you can do for your itchy skin. 1.

Over-the-counter-medicated shampoos are available at drug stores and supermarkets. Since there are plenty of these type of shampoos, choose one that contains one or more of the ingredients like salicylic acid, selenium sulfide, pyrithione zinc, tar, ciclopirox or ketoconazole. This shampoo can be used every day until symptoms subside.

After a few weeks use this medicated shampoo twice per week. If you are washing your hair let the shampoo stay on your scalp for at least five minutes 2. If you still continue to experience itchiness you should consult your doctor so that he can prescribe shampoo that contains corticosteroids or topical steroid solution.

For some seborrheic dermatitis that are caused by fungal infections, applying Lotrim may be helpful. If you have a dry and itchy scalp you can also apply hydrocortisone cream to the affected areas. 3.

You also have another option by using tea tree oil to the scalp. Applying olive, peanut or mineral oil to the scalp before going to bed is also recommended by the American Academy of Family Physicians. While University of Michigan Health Systems suggests applying aloe or herbal cream with aloe to the scalp.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
