What To Do If Your Scalp Is Itchy
When you have itchy scalp, it could be as simple as your scalp telling you that it time for you to wash/cleanse it. If you have product buildup or you haven’t washed your hair in a while, try using a clarifying shampoo to cleanse your scalp and hair.

Your scalp could be itchy if you have dandruff or other scalp conditions like psoriasis. See your doctor if your symptoms:
- last longer than a week
- include pain, sores, or swelling
- include itching so intense it interferes with your ability to sleep or function
