Boost hydration & Good Hair Hygiene
Itchy dandruff scalp is an effect of excessive growth of the yeast-like fungus Malassezia. This fungus breaks down the natural oils on the scalp which leads to inflammation on the scalp.
This condition is incredibly uncomfortable and can worsen if it is scratched and rubbed frequently. It can later cause further irritation, potentially leading to infection on the scalp.
Not only that, an itchy scalp can also have a severe impact on one’s self-esteem. The continuous itchiness and scratching may be both distracting and embarrassing, causing you to feel uneasy and anxious, especially in social settings.
To reduce the itchiness experienced on a dandruff scalp, proper hygiene and hydration are essential. One of the most effective methods to deal with an extremely itchy scalp is by using a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo that contains ingredients such as Selenium Sulfide and Menthol that works by treating dandruff and soothes itchy scalp.
