My scalp has been itchy for the past few days and i washed it last friday (i wait every five days until i wash it) when i scratch no dirt comes up like it does when its dirty it just itches. COuld it be because i slept with a cap on during the weekend and i sweated and by sweating i dried out my scalp? Could i be i need some extra scalp moisture because its winter? I mean it hasnt been itchy and dry long it just started last week. What should I do and whats the cause of this?

I do know that because it's colder outside and you are inside with a lot of dry heat, it will cause your scalp to itch like crazy. Wool caps will do that to.  At least it does that for me.  Some anti-itch cream for the hair works wonders to stop the mad itching.  For me I use a little bit of oil like Botonical through my hair and scalp and that ususally stops the madness.
