Itchy Scalp

[Mags22]

As soon as I get hot in bed my scalp starts to itch, it’s infuriating. I’ve tried conditioner and given it a hot oil treatment but nothing helps ( it’s not lice) Has anyone any ideas for relief please? Thankyou for any suggestions.

That used to happen to me when I was younger.
A nurse told me it was one of two things - either a hormonal issue eg premenstrual women often find their skin is drier or oiler than normal, which can trigger itching. Or dust mites in the pillow.
I bought a pillow case that is specially made to repel dust mites, .
I did so, and the problem went away.

Try Neutrogena T/gel shampoo.

Normally I'd suggest Eucerin Dermo Capillaire, which is excellent for a dry itchy scalp. However, the itch would be there much of the time and not only in bed. The first reply sounds more useful.
