Help with scalp

4 replies

Squeakydogtoy · 04/10/2025 22:14

I suffer with mild psoriasis, mainly on my neck/hair line, but recently my scalp has been so itchy.

I haven't changed my shampoo/ conditioner or hair products, so im assuming it's connected to psoriasis, but I obviously can't be sure.

Any ideas what I can use on my scalp/hair that will stop this itch?

( No....I don't have nits 😂)

There’s been a few threads recently about a change in formulations causing reactions. It might be worth checking out before you decide it’s down to psoriasis.

I use moo goo products for my sensitive scalp and find them very soothing.

I have same. For me, washing my hair every 2nd or 3rd day helps.

I tend to wash my hair every other day.

Always blow dry it, as I find leaving it wet can irritate my psoriasis more

If you live in a hard water area then installing a water softening shower head attachment might help.
