Itchy Scalp

Itchy Scalp: Using A Natural Home
Remedy For Dry Scalp, Itchy Scalp Conditions & Hair Growth

It can be extremely annoying and embarrassing having a scalp
condition like dandruff,psoriasis, eczema, scalp infections or a
nasty itchy red rash on your scalp.

• Is your scalp flaky itchy or do you have dry scalp with redness
  and rashes that drive you crazy?


• Scalp picking - constantly find yourself picking at &
  scratching?


• Oily greasy scalp and limp hair leaving you feeling less than
  your best


• Embarrassing dandruff falling on your clothes


• Or even a fungal infection of your scalp that can lead to
  lesions or scalp sores.


• Hair falling out & patches on your scalp

Your instinct might be to pick up a product from the store shelf
or your doctor. Most of these scalp treatments that promise relief
from dry scalp conditions sound very attractive until you start
reading the fine print.

Sodium Laureth/Lauryl Sulphate (SLS)? What's that? Why do you
have to call a Poison Control Center if you accidentally swallow
shampoo? And what are those warning labels on the back all about?
What does it do to your head if it's that toxic?

Stop! What you must know is that several chemicals, especially
SLS, strip the natural oils from the skin and even corrode it,
along with your eye membranes. Have you also noticed that your hair
has been thinning? Well hair follicle damage is another little
known but very common symptom of these chemicals.

Actually, most commercial shampoos & scalp treatments are
designed to meet people's "sensory" expectations offering instant
gratification and the illusion that they are doing their job. So
therein lies the problem. For example adding silicone to
conditioner induces an artificial shine but in truth can create
problems long term including sensitivities.

Most people expect a shampoo to:

• Foam up nicely


• Smell good


• Take all the so-called "nasty" oiliness out of their hair


• Make their hair feel squeaky-clean

And that's a reasonable ask - think about it if your shampoo
didn't foam up, smell good, or leave your hair feeling
squeaky-clean, would you trust it? Well, here's the thing: 90% of
commercial shampoos achieve the foaming effect using the equivalent
of engine degreasers to strip off not only dirt and grime but also
valuable natural oils that your scalp needs.

Yes -your scalp needs natural oils. Without them, your body has
no natural defence - those oils are there for a reason! Your scalp
needs to maintain a natural PH balance that if disturbed - can
develop into a dry, itchy irritated scalp. The good news is that
there are many natural remedies you can use with moisturising oils
and natural powerful alternatives to heal & reverse any scalp
problem by restoring balance safely. You can easily repair follicle
and damage - even boost hair growth and use your own home remedy
for scalp cell regeneration. There are also the artificial aromas
that are added - its alarming the huge percentage of people who are
mildly to severely averse or allergic to artificial scents - and we
don't even know it.

So what non toxic itchy scalp treatments and natural remedies
can help? Well there are many non toxic shampoos which are
nourishing and conditioning while still giving you the "foam
effect", they smell devine with the addition of the natural oils
they contain. So you do have a choice and it does NOT have to cost
you more - in fact most of them are less - you just have to know
what to look for.

So lets have a look at natural oils for treating your scalp

Here are some of my favorite natural oils you can use for hair
& scalp treatments.
