Relieving an itchy scalp naturally focuses on hydration and calming inflammation with gentle, non-irritating ingredients. Coconut oil moisturizes deeply, reducing dryness and fungal growth that trigger itching. Aloe vera gel cools and soothes the scalp, alleviating discomfort. Diluted apple cider vinegar balances scalp pH, reducing irritation from microbial overgrowth. Avoiding synthetic shampoos with sulfates or fragrances prevents worsening of symptoms. Scalp massages with essential oils like lavender improve circulation and promote healing. These natural methods target the root causes of itching, providing effective relief and supporting long-term scalp health without harsh chemicals.
