Since you say you aren't experiencing any dandruff or dry flaking, there could be various causes for your irritation: * Unwashed hair. If you have long hair, you may not be thoroughly cleansing the scalp. * Dry scalp.

This could be caused from too frequently washing hair or a deficiency of the natural protective oil on the scalp. * Scratching leads to itching. Once you begin scratching, you may have irritated the skin just enough to cause further itching.

Then you scratch the itch, and the scratch itches. It's a vicious cycle. * Head lice.

Yuck! * Dermatitis. * Scalp Psoriasis.

There are a lot of causes for an itchy scalp, one of which is dryness. It's a good idea to take a look at what your environment is like--do you live in a dry climate? Do you have "hard water"?

Have you switched hair care products? Do you wear hats often? How often do you wash your hair?

Answering these questions may allow you to make small changes to see if you need to do something a little different. If the itchiness persists after making changes, you may wish to see a doctor. Also, Nioxin has a system called Scalp Recovery which addresses itchy scalp by treating it pyrithione zinc as well as a conditioner and a serum to soothe itchiness.

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.
