*Itchy scalp: pollution and stress identified as culprits*
Lastly, some environmental factors can cause scalp itching such as pollution, dry weather, but also stress, which can “worsen physical discomfort.” Don’t hesitate to consult a dermatologist, who will first be able to establish a diagnosis, but also prescribe shampoos adapted to the problem to relieve your scalp. “If scalp itching persists for more than a week, is severe, or is accompanied by symptoms like hair loss, sores, or a skin rash, it’s time to consult a professional,” Dr. Anna Chacon also recommends.
