How to treat an itchy scalp?

My scalp has been really dry and itchy the last couple of weeks and even dandruff shampoo doesn't seem to help. I assume that its because of the strange changes in weather, but don't know how to treat it. Any suggestions?

try just washing your hair in warm water and then massage a little shea butter cream into the scalp then towel dry. If you are finding your scalp smells then rub a little natural lavender oil into it with warm water

Also increase your water intake, and try to relax more as stress can be  cause of what you have and dehydration. back of coffee and acid foods / Eat more alkaline foods 

Hope that helps.
