My scalp is itchy and my hair is falling out. Is it okay?
2026.10.23 14:10
Lately, my scalp has been itchy often, and it seems like I'm losing more hair when I wash it.
At first, I thought it was because it was dry, but
Since the itching kept recurring, I was wondering if I should check the condition of my scalp first.
I even looked into whether switching to a hair loss shampoo would help, but I don't think scalp problems and the causes of hair loss are necessarily the same.
Since hair loss can also increase if you have skin conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, finding out the exact cause should be the first step, right?
I am wondering what tests I can get at a dermatology clinic if these symptoms appear together.
For those of you who have had a similar experience, how did you manage it at first?

- 01CommentsI imagine you must be very worried, as having thin and sparse hair makes even a little loss look much more sparse. It must be upsetting if you are seeing no changes despite consistently using shampoos and scalp care products. While scalp care is important, I’ve heard that the management method can vary depending on the cause of hair loss. In particular, if your hair has thinned noticeably recently, it might be a good idea to have your scalp and hair condition checked at a dermatologist's office. Rather than blindly switching products, I think it would be helpful to identify the cause first and manage your care consistently. Please don't stress too much, and I hope you find a care method that works for you! 😊430026.10.17
- 02CommentsLosing volume at the crown or on the bangs can be a major source of stress every time you look in the mirror. First, try using a shampoo and scalp tonic specifically designed for hair loss to reduce scalp heat. Regularly changing your parting direction will restore volume and make thinning areas less noticeable. Especially in the early stages, I recommend getting an accurate diagnosis from a dermatologist or hair loss clinic first.131026.10.23
- 03CommentsIt is important to massage the scalp gently using your fingertips instead of your fingernails. If your hair is thinning or the amount of hair loss has increased, it would be better to check the cause at a dermatologist rather than stimulating the scalp too hard.200026.10.22
- 01CommentsYour choice will likely depend on whether you want to naturally fill in the M-shaped hairline with real hair or simply correct the areas where your scalp is visible. Hair transplantation involves growing actual hair, so it can be used to create a natural hairline. Scalp tattooing, on the other hand, does not increase hair volume but is a method to visually fill in sparse areas. Fillers are not a general method recommended for filling in the hairline itself. When consulting, be sure to check whether the M-shaped area can be naturally connected, whether the direction and density of your existing hair match the transplanted hair, and what the risk of scarring and recovery period will be.350026.10.17
- 02CommentsWhile scalp ampoules can be helpful for moisturizing and maintaining scalp condition, their effectiveness varies depending on the underlying cause of excessive hair loss, so it is difficult to assume that ampoules alone will improve hair loss. If you thought it was just the change of seasons but the amount of hair falling out has continued to increase compared to usual, it is a good idea to have the cause identified at a dermatologist's office. If you decide to try a scalp ampoule, be sure to first check for its functionality in alleviating hair loss symptoms and ensure it does not irritate the scalp.391126.10.16
- 03CommentsTry maintaining scalp cleanliness by thoroughly washing away fine dust and impurities with lukewarm water, and using cool air when drying your hair. I saw significant reductions in hair loss and frizz by consuming brewer's yeast or soy products, getting enough sleep, and using biotin shampoo.400026.10.15
- 01CommentsThe concern of thinning hair as you age is a topic that many people can truly relate to. Taking nutritional supplements like biotin or brewer's yeast consistently over the long term is very helpful for preventing hair loss. While supplements are beneficial, combining them with massages that improve blood circulation in the scalp and maintaining healthy eating habits is far more effective. In particular, a protein-rich diet and sufficient sleep form the foundation of hair health, so please make sure to take care of them. Consistent care is key to managing hair loss, so please don't stress too much about it and take things step by step.1762026.09.23
- 02CommentsI realized that when you reduce your food intake while dieting, it becomes difficult to include foods like meat and legumes, which can lead to a decrease in iron intake as well. It would be a good idea to first examine how much iron-containing food is missing from your regular diet—not just legumes—and if that deficiency persists, getting a ferritin test to confirm it would be beneficial!561026.09.28
