Having flaky scalp can easily become an annoyance in daily life. Naturally, you would have tried numerous “home remedies” but nothing has worked till now.
How to get rid of flaky scalp? Whether it just started or you have been having it for a while, here’s how you can deal with a flaking scalp effectively.
Dry Scalp Treatment: Gentle Solutions for a Sensitive Issue
Before attempting a remedy, it’s important to understand that having a flaking scalp is a symptom of a deeper underlying problem.
You don’t just have a ‘dry’ scalp. What you have is a scalp that’s been affected for months or even years with the wrong hair care products or mere improper hair care.
This means short term solutions no longer work and can even worsen your condition. The best thing you can do in order to get rid of dandruff and flaky scalp is to start cutting back on products that contain harsh ingredients and being more gentle when handling your hair.
Identifying the Root Cause: Understanding What's Causing Your Flaky Scalp
However, if you are unable to pinpoint the cause of why you have a flaky scalp, the condition can persist. One way you can do this is by cutting out certain practices for a period of time.
For example, if you suspect your shampoo containing harsh ingredients that your scalp is reacting to, you can cut it out for a period of time. We recommend a time range of at least 3 to 8 months to see its effects.
Natural Remedies for Dry Scalp: Going Chemical-Free for Healthier Hair
Maybe your flaking is caused by something different like having Seborrheic Dermatitis (Dandruff) or a drastic change in your lifestyle. Even then, using traditional hair products that contain harsh ingredients will only cause more flaking.
To get rid of flakes and itchy scalp, we recommend going for products that rely on botanical ingredients rather than harmful chemicals.
Here are a few shampoos we recommend that are excellent for alleviating symptoms like scalp itching and flaking!
