Medical Conditions - Dry Scalp

It occurs when the scalp loses too much moisture, making it flaky and itchy. Many hair care products and weather can make the scalp dry. Some medical conditions like psoriasis and scalp ringworm (tinea capitis) can also cause this condition. As a result, the scalp has white flakes that appear as dandruff and cause itching. Using mild shampoo, washing hair less frequently, and drinking plenty of water will lock the moisture in the scalp.
