Shampoo that won't make my scalp itch
Shampoo that won't make my scalp itch
Lately, I have been using some shampoo that had been left behind by some family members who had recently lived with us for a short period of time. It's called dove. My scalp itches morning and night. It's got to be the shampoo. Does anyone have a recommendation for a non itchy shampoo?

Gary, we buy Pantene brand in the big bottles at either Sam’s or Costco. No itching and also, I don’t bother with conditioner. I think it’s good stuff.
Best regards,

I’ve used Head and Shoulders for years with no ill-effects.

Itchy scalp is a common Dove shampoo side affect. I have used The Body Shop Ginger scalp care shampoo for the past several years. It's excellent and has never caused me any itchiness or other side effects.
Best of luck finding a product that works for you.

Among the solid shampoo bars, if that's a choice for you, the ones with tea tree oil - such as Mike's Natural - are very soothing to the scalp.

First things first, I stopped using Dove! Currently evaluating the alternatives including all of your recommendations. This will take some time, but at least my main complaint has been addressed. Thanks for your help!

Wendell, Body Shop Ginger is a good product. Thanks for the heads-up.

I had used a shampoo bar, Chagrin Valley,and read up on J R Leggitt's shampoo bars, which may or may not be available at Whole Foods
Seems that going without shampoo also helps,in that the scalp reacts to stripping away of natural oils. Some I have read just use mild conditioner, like Suave, and that seems to gently clean the hair and scalp and make the hair manageable.

After changing to the Ginger for these several weeks/months now, my scalp has returned to normal now, to my great relief.

Since October I have learned that the Body Shop Ginger also makes a very good body wash in the shower. Nice product.
