Oily Itchy Scalp: Causes, Treatment & Prevention

There are two types of itchy scalp

Oily itchy scalp: This condition arises from hyperactive sebaceous glands, resulting in an overproduction of oil or the growth of fungi like Malassezia, leading to scalp itchiness. Note: Malassezia is a fungus that usually lives on healthy adult scalps without issues, but overgrowth can cause itchiness and dandruff. Dry itchy scalp: this happens due to the absence of natural sebum protection, leading to scalp moisture loss, dryness, cracking, and even flaking.

Symptoms Of OILY itchy scalp:

  • Oily scalp within a day

Q&A

Should I shampoo everyday? Why?

Having an oily scalp indicates that your hair gets greasy fast. Using an oil-balancing shampoo daily can manage the oil, reducing itchiness and dandruff.

Can a strong cleaning shampoo reduce oiliness on a greasy scalp?

Absolutely not! While applying conditioner immediately after shampooing may provide temporary relief, it can actually lead to scalp dryness and increased oil production. A more effective approach to combat greasy hair is to maintain a balanced scalp secretion.

What sets oily dandruff and dry dandruff apart?

Oily dandruff is usually caused by an overgrowth of Malassezia due to excess oil secretion from the sebaceous glands, which can stimulate the scalp and lead to dandruff formation.

Dry dandruff occurs when the scalp lacks natural oils, causing the scalp to dry out and shed flakes. Regularly moisturizing the scalp is the best solution for treating dry scalp.
