Itchy and dry scalp, often from harsh shampoos or dehydration, can be relieved naturally by restoring moisture and calming irritation. Scalp massages with coconut oil hydrate skin, while sulfate-free shampoos prevent further drying. Diluted apple cider vinegar rinses balance scalp pH, reducing flaking. Foods rich in omega-3s, like flaxseeds, support skin health, and drinking water maintains hydration. These approaches soothe the scalp and promote health without chemical side effects.
