have tingling and itchy scalp this past week and keep,changing Shampoo and conditioners with no relief as no other symptoms and no headache and feel fine and trying to get into dermatologist next week as went to dr and checked my glucose and said fine and no where near being a diabetic and said my scalp was very dry and hope I can get a medication for this as sometimes burns as was fine last week as just started this week and doctor said it isn’t a medical problem. Any suggestions please? Thank you

have you tried ginger shampoo and conditioner. Bodyshop did sell it not sure if they still do. But it took couple of months for me.

Try not to use too many other products when doing hair etc.

hope this helps

THAT was first sign before hair loss started or thinning....it was so itchy at times i used a cold bag of peas to put on head.and noticed alot more in shower in drain...it is usually changing hormones and dht ....stop sulfate shampoos help, stop hot tools, let hair air dry, could be dht on scalp.....i use reviv hair serum and also use a red nir near infrared elite irestore cap daily which helps....hair changes drastically w age in large percentage of women like the scalp and then the hair texture will change all over or in certain areas...very weird....i actually have one inch top section that is wirey and all my other hair is silky...so weird...no one know why...yet some greying women get it all over...
