Can hair oils help an itchy scalp?!
Question: I have a bad itchy scalp. Its been going on and off for a few weeks at a time for about a year now. I dont flake, its just very itchy, but sometimes ill use a dandruff shampoo, but it only helps for like 2-3 days. I dont wash my hair everyday, so I wash it abour 4-5 times a week, since my hair is so dry anyway, I can get away with it, plus its normal.My hair and skin are dry, I use lotion for my skin (DUH!) to keep it mostuirized, so it makes sense to use hair oils for my scalp, but do you think it will help the problem? And also, do you know of any companies that sell hair oils. I know origins does, but its costs like $20! Can using an essential oil work the same?
I just want to do it for my scalp and roots, since thats wear the problem is, so a deep conditioner or hot oil treatment wont really work, since you do that for all your hair, specifically the ends.

Only if you skin is dry. But the underlying cause of dry or itchy skin is the myfascia, which is the connective tissue that surrounds every organ, ligament, tendon, nerve, muscle, vessel and skin altogether. It's importance in the body is negated by Western medicine and to understand its effects one must go to the Eastern practioners, especially Tibetan.

You're washing your hair too often, which is stripping your hair of natural oil. Dry hair & dry scalp = lots of itching. Hair oils, if there is such a thing, would make matters worse. Try Pantene shampoo/conditioner all in one for a while, & see what happens. Overuse of gels, hairprays, mousse, etc. can make matters worse, because of the alcohol content.
