This is why a dry scalp is itchy or flaky

The scalp is one of the most sensitive parts of our body. Unfortunately, it is often not paid enough attention. This is when problems such as dry skin, flakes or itching occur.

In the same way as our skin, the scalp forms the barrier between us and our environment. It protects our body against loss of moisture, harmful substances, solar radiation and micro-organisms. When the scalp's natural moisture is lost, the skin barrier can become permeable.

If the skin barrier of the scalp is permeable, local symptoms may occur. The most common problems are dryness, flakes and itching.

Signs of a dry scalp include unpleasant itching, a feeling of tension after hair washing, and clearly visible flakes. In the case of a very dry scalp, fine white flakes of dry skin may develop and fall from the hair.

Did you know that people who tend to have dry skin often also have a dry scalp.
