A sensitive scalp can be very uncomfortable, as it can cause feelings of tightness and dandruff. It is often accompanied by intense itching. There can be multiple causes, including internal and external factors.

Frequent causes of a sensitive scalp

A dry and sensitive scalp can be caused by internal (endogenous) and external (exogenous) factors. These factors weaken the skin's natural protective film and lead to a lack of Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) on the scalp. These factors are essential for binding moisture in the skin. A lack of NMF leads to insufficient hydration of the upper layers of the skin and, therefore, a dry scalp.

Internal causes:

• Genetic predisposition
• Skin aging
• Skin conditions (such as psoriasis or neurodermatitis)
• Certain diseases (e.g., hypothyroidism or diabetes)
• Lack of fluids
• Hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause)
• Stress
• Malnutrition (notably deficiency in vitamin C, E, and unsaturated fatty acids)
• Taking certain medications

External causes:

• Using water that is too hot for washing and drying hair
• Cold weather in winter
• Dry air from heating
• Environmental aggressors such as pollution
• Unhealthy lifestyle (smoking and excessive alcohol consumption)
• Use of unsuitable shampoos that dry out the scalp

Sensitive and dry scalps need the right care

The goal of treating a sensitive and dry scalp is to restore the skin's natural protective barrier in order to compensate for the lack of moisture and hydration factors in the long term. Proper scalp cleansing and daily adjustments are essential. To treat a sensitive scalp, a soothing and moisturizing shampoo such as Physiogel Scalp Care Mild Shampoo is recommended.
