Try an apple cider vinegar rinse too. 2 Tablespoons ACV in 1c water. Pour over hair. Massage scalp for a minute or two. Rinse. Condition. Rinse. (No need to shampoo first unless your hair is VERY dirty). Do this 1x a week.

I have read about a number of different home remedies such as using lemon juice or egg whites massaged into the scalp to stop hair loss and itchiness.

Dandruff and dermatitus could be the cause. You must get a shampoo to stop the dandruff because it is a fungus.

Shampoos! Don't use shampoos with harsh surfactants like Sodium Lauryl or Laureth Sulfates (SLS). Instead try shampoos with cocamidopropyl betaine or cocobetaine, and don't shampoo EVERYtime you shower. I tried to add links regarding SLS's, but my post was blocked so do a web search for Naturally Curly for morehelp.
