What causes a flaky scalp?

A flaky scalp can be caused by product build-up, sensitivity, excess oil or changes in the scalp’s natural balance. Triggers such as stress, weather changes and frequent washing can also make flakes and itchiness worse. For a full explanation of causes and solutions, you can read How to Manage a Dry & Flaky Scalp.

How can I get rid of a dry, flaky scalp?

Gentle exfoliation and consistent hydration help reduce flakes and soothe discomfort associated with a dry scalp. Regular use of a scalp treatment can calm irritation and promote a healthier-feeling scalp.

Can a flaky scalp be prevented?

Yes. Consistent scalp care, avoiding harsh cleansers and reducing product build-up can all help. Using a gentle shampoo regularly supports scalp balance and makes flakes less likely to return.
