You may need to use Head & Shoulders or Selsum Blue for itchy scalp or dandruff

Okay thank you I've never had this issue before so I pray it works

Yes I would suggest using a head and shoulders type shampoo for dandruff (you may not have dandruff but the itchyness can be apart of that) if it persists, I'd suggest maybe going to the doctors, they may be able to prescribe something for it. X

Tea tree oil shampoo is great, trader joes has some. Apple cider vinegar will kill the bacteria or fungus causing the itch, same thing as tea tree oil, coconut oil, olive oil.

You can use a hair mask for a few hours using either coconut oil or olive oil as well, just make sure to get work it into your scalp... It'll do wonders for your hair too. Before I cut my hair, it was always very healthy for mid thigh length hair and I did that once every few weeks. Just shampoo it out like normal in the shower.

Also, wash your hair everyday, or every other day. If I go too long like 3-4 days with out washing my hair, i get a bit itchy too. But when I workout regularly, I wash daily since I workout hard and sweat.

Can this happen earlier too? Im only 6 weeks and my head is so itchy!! I have sensitive skin but have been using the same hair products?! Didn't know this was a pregnancy symptom. How long will it last?!

It can happen at any time, pregnant or not. Your hormones are changing so your body is just reacting. If you were sensitive before, you could be hyper sensitive now or not sensitive to anything at all.
