There are lots of shampoos out there for itchy scalp. I used to get it all the time but fixed it without a prescription. Obviously stop itching it and try Head and Shoulders. It worked well for me.

Scalp itching is caused by dry skin on the scalp, sometimes accompanied by a rash. You need to fix the dryness to remedy this situation. Use a moisturing shampoo, such as a good dandruff shampoo, to alleviate the dryness and the itch.

Use soothing essential oils such as lavendar, chammomile, peppermint, or mint. There is also a wonderful antiseptic oil with cooling properties called Tea Tree Oil. Use Caution when applying these products as using too much may be overwhelming. Also try fresh Aloe Vera applied to the scalp.

They say that honey is a remedy, but it's not for everyone. It depends on the severeness of the itch. Don't scratch your head and you may not need to use anything at all. Other remedies include rinsing in warm (NOT HOT) water and drying full with the dryer far away from the head.
