How Do You Soothe An Irritated Scalp

Soothing an irritated scalp naturally involves calming inflammation and restoring moisture. Aloe vera gel, applied directly, reduces redness and hydrates the scalp effectively. A diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids from flaxseeds supports skin health, minimizing irritation. Avoiding harsh shampoos with sulfates prevents further aggravation. Scalp massages with chamomile oil calm inflammation and promote healing. Diluted apple cider vinegar rinses balance scalp pH, reducing discomfort. These remedies, used regularly, alleviate irritation, fostering a healthy scalp environment without reliance on chemical treatments.
