Solve It:
If you suffer from dandruff, pick up a dandruff shampoo, but if the itching and redness get serious, head to a dermatologist or trichologist for a more potent solution.

Bailey recommends choosing a hair oil that contains tea tree, (like Wen Tea Tree Oil, $20) baobab, peppermint, rosemary, or ylang-ylang oils, all of which stimulate and soothe the scalp. Massage all over your scalp with the pads of your fingers for three minutes, then shampoo out.
