June 28th, 2010Itchy Scalp

I won’t say my scalp is dry but it started like a few months ago – my scalp started getting itchy even after i’ve just showered and washed my hair. How irritating is that? i had asked my hair stylist and she said she didn’t think that there was a skin problem nor did she see any lice. Big relieve – coz’ i hate lice and i had them once when i was a kid.
So what could it be? I hate to be scratching my scalp and scarring them. My hair stylist suggested a different shampoo – she said that sometimes when you use a shampoo for too long – your head and skin on the head becomes sensitive to it. Doesn’t quite make sense but i was willing to try of course. And then i came across this book - Psoriasis of the scalp. But I can be sure it isn’t because Psoriasis is a long term skin disease and this is only happening now. Anyhow – i’m gonna change shampoo and see what happens.
