How do you fix a dry, flaky scalp?

Answer by  Enna (61)

Try using a scalp treatment. Many intensive hair conditioners may be used for this purpose. These are creams that are rich in emollients and may be massaged into the scalp and left on for 10 to 15 minutes. Using a milder conditioning shampoo between scalp treatments would also be helpful.

Try washing your hair with a moisturizing shampoo only three times a week as more can dry out your scalp. After you wash it, rinse the base your hair, near your scalp, with a cup of vinegar.

Are you over washing your hair? If it's possible with your lifestyle I would suggest not washing your hair everyday (if you do), or at the least just wet it in the shower - don't use shampoo. Our hair and scalp needs the natural oils and over washing can damage our scalp.
