Shampoo for Irritated Scalp

Scalp irritation can bring a host of uncomfortable and unpleasant symptoms. From itching to burning to redness to scalp flakes, all of the signs of scalp irritation can affect your appearance and your ability to focus on the events of your day. While there are many ways to deal with scalp irritation, shampoos are one of the simplest and most convenient methods of soothing an inflamed scalp. At Walgreens, we have many options available to help you address your symptoms and take good care of your irritated skin.

Shampooing an Irritated Scalp

When you're suffering from any type of scalp irritation, it is important that you maintain a healthy hair care routine. Allowing impurities like dirt, sweat and excess scalp oils to linger on your skin can often worsen irritation. This makes it important that you continue to shampoo your hair on a regular basis. Doing so will help you keep the skin clean and remove any irritants that may have collected.

Gentle Care for Scalp Irritation

Although shampooing is important for managing scalp irritation, you must be careful about the products that you use on inflamed skin. That's why manufacturers offer products specifically for irritated scalps. These products provide the same benefits as traditional shampoos but are meant to act gently on the scalp and hair. As a result, they promote a healthier scalp without exposing the skin to ingredients that can further worsen irritation. Some shampoos for irritated scalps contain medicinal or cosmeceutical synthetic ingredients that ease symptoms upon application to improve your comfort. You can also find natural shampoos for irritated scalp skin that can help you reduce your use of synthetic ingredients that may have contributed to the problem.

Solution-Specific Shampoos

Many shampoos for irritated scalps are specially formulated to address hair care and dermatological problems. You can find formulas made for dandruff, dry skin, sensitivity, eczema and other conditions. These products may contain over-the-counter medications that are approved for use to treat certain scalp problems or natural ingredients that have been traditionally used as folk remedies for various scalp concerns. If you're not sure what is causing your scalp irritation, it is a good idea to see a doctor for a professional diagnosis.
