My two biggest hair issues are on my scalp - it itches frequently, and I've checked about four times (paranoia, anyone?) and am pretty certain it's not nits, and it flakes quite a lot. I've also got quite a bit of buildup right now, and have been looking for a good clarifying shampoo. I've used anti-dandruff shampoos in the past for the flakes, but I tend to get greasy clumps for days if I use them, so I stopped.
I was telling a close friend about my problems, and she recommended trying an exfoliant for my scalp. I've tried them on my face before and they work wonders to my dry, flaky skin, so I thought it seemed like a good idea. I am specifically looking at getting http://www.marksandspencer.com/exfoliating-scalp-mask-75ml/p/p22338306 and http://www.marksandspencer.com/philip-kingsley-flaky-itchy-scalp-toner-75ml/p/p22171906 as I have enough M&S vouchers that I'd get them for free.
I'm a bit worried about using something like that on my scalp, though, mostly as my friend has much thicker hair than I do (mine's about average though, and it's not overly breakable) and I'm concerned exfoliating might make my hair fall out or my scalp to get worse.
Has anyone else used a similar product before? Do you think this is a good idea, or have a better/different suggestion?
