Dry scalp can leave your hair looking dull and your skin feeling tight, itchy, or flaky. Whether it’s caused by weather changes, product buildup, or skin conditions like eczema, using the right shampoo is the first step to relief. In this guide, we’ll explore expert-recommended shampoos that treat dry scalp effectively—many of which are available at Perfect Trust Beauty.
What Causes a Dry Scalp?
Harsh Hair Products
Shampoos with sulfates or alcohol can strip your scalp’s natural oils.
Cold or Dry Weather
Lower humidity and cold winds reduce moisture levels, drying out the scalp.
Over washing
Frequent shampooing, especially with hot water, can lead to dryness.
Skin Conditions
Issues like eczema or psoriasis often manifest as dry patches on the scalp.
