What do you use on your scalp? What has helped you hair the most as a scalp product?

I have a dry scalp. I love ORS Dry Scalp relief. It's a bit oily but it's great for me.

I have to say that I agree with Cathy Howse when she says that you shouldn't put anything on your scalp. I find that when I do put grease, moisturizers or the like on my scalp it itches badly afterwards. If I am suffering with dry scalp (not dandruff) I wash with an acidic non-sulfate shampoo: CON Ultra Moisturizing or if you can't find that Elasta QP Creme Conditioning, (there are others.) Condition without putting any on my scalp and rinse thoroughly. I don't scratch or mess with it and usually it goes away on its own. Increasing water intake is a smart thing to do also. I drink and absorb more water in the summer so that Oct-Nov is usually my scalp starts getting dry.

But don't you put MTG and Syrge on your scalp? You don't put those products on your hair.

I only put a small amount of oil on my scalp in the winter.  Nothing in the summer and my hair enjoys that way or it will itch like crazy.

The only time I put stuff on my scalp is when I am MTGing.

Anything else on my scalp and I will be itching. I prefer to put nothing on my scalp, normally.

I put EVOO on my scalp before I wash my hair. I don't like having anything on my scalp normally but I don't mind it if I'm about to wash it out.

 I really like Head and shoulders soothing lotion.  It really works on itchy scalp.
