A dry scalp does not just look unsightly; it can also feel very uncomfortable. The constant need to scratch your scalp can get very annoying. Whether your dry and itchy scalp is due to dry air or a poor diet, you do not have to deal with it forever. Here are some solutions for a dry and flaky scalp.

 

Since a dry and itchy scalp can be caused by dry air, you should think about putting a humidifier in your room. It will add moisture to the air, which will help relieve some of that dryness and itchiness on your scalp.

 

Another way you can relieve your dry and itchy scalp is to use an anti-dandruff shampoo. If you wash your hair with this shampoo every time, you should find relief from your flaky scalp in no time.

 

Apple cider vinegar has anti-inflammation properties that can destroy yeast that causes an itchy scalp. It also balances out the pH levels in your scalp, which will reduce the itching. After you have rinsed your hair with water, just pour the apple cider vinegar over your hair and leave it on for 20 minutes.

 

Baking soda is also good for relieving a dry and itchy scalp. It exfoliates the scalp and controls dandruff. Just combine two tablespoons of baking soda with a cup of water and apply is all over your hair. Leave it on for 15 minutes before washing it off.

 

Coconut oil is not just great for cooking; it can also help with your dry scalp. It is very moisturizing and will keep your scalp from itching. Just apply a 1/4 cup of it to your scalp and wash it out after letting it sit for about 20 minutes. 

 

If you use heat styling products on your hair every day, it will just make your dry scalp worse. All that heat will just dry out your scalp even more. Try to apply as little heat to your hair as possible.
