You can do a couple of things. First, I would start with Dr. Bronner's Baby Shampoo. It is all of the things you mentioned in your post. In fact, it is actually just made of olive oil (castile soap). My hubby gets a little itchy too, so I generally make a tea mixture with things like chickweed, plantain, rosemary, etc. that help itching. I make it strong and let it cool, then strain it, and add it with some filtered water to the baby shampoo. It makes a lovely, soothing shampoo. The other thing you can try that is a little easier, is to use Dr. Bronner's tea tree oil shampoo. Best of luck with this - it can be very frustrating!

Hi there. Did you manage to find one? I was using L'Oreal products for years, but my scalp became so itchy lately, so now I'm looking for the solution too. Recently I was searching for something new and after reading an article here - mystraightener.com/best-con... I decided to try Herbal Essences conditioner and Redken shampoo because they both labeled as sulfate and paraben-free. Redken one works for me just as a good hair cleanser for my extra oily hair, but it's an expensive one. Herbal worked great too, using it every day. Will look for more.

Not what you're looking for?
