{"title":"Itchy Scalp","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe itch usually isn't from your scalp. It's from what's sitting on it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost scalp itch comes from buildup: sebum, dead skin, and product residue that irritate the skin and feed Malassezia, the yeast on every scalp. Research suggests removing the surface layer is one of the fastest ways to settle the irritation. A 2024 clinical study found more than 90% of people with chronic scalp itch (what clinicians call scalp pruritus) saw reduced itching within 15 days with targeted scalp care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrub-Dub is the mechanical step. Zinc-based antimicrobial TPE bristles lift buildup during your shampoo, giving the skin a chance to calm down. Use 2-3 times a week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sd-condition-disclaimer\"\u003eThis study tested a topical scalp care product, not Scrub-Dub. Cited research supports scale removal and targeted scalp care as a category. Scrub-Dub is a personal care tool and does not treat, cure, or prevent any disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow fast will I actually feel relief?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people feel less itching during the first wash with Scrub-Dub, the mechanical stimulation and immediate buildup removal both help. For lasting relief, research on scalp pruritus shows meaningful reduction within about 2 weeks when surface scale is consistently removed. If your itch is severe, the first few uses should give you a sense of whether this is going to work for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhy does my scalp itch worse at night, after workouts, or in winter?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeat, sweat, and dry air all aggravate the same surface that's already irritated by buildup. Sweat softens buildup but leaves residue behind, and indoor heating strips moisture from the scalp. Night-time scratching is partly that buildup has had all day to accumulate against the skin. Clearing it consistently breaks the cycle in any of those conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat if my itch is from eczema or psoriasis, not buildup?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMechanical scale removal helps the surface in most scalp conditions, but it's not a substitute for medication. If you've been diagnosed with scalp eczema or psoriasis, use Scrub-Dub as a step in your routine, not a replacement for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sd-testimonial\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sd-stars\"\u003e★★★★★\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I have an itchy scalp caused by nerve issues, and this gives me relief like nothing else I've tried.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sd-attribution\"\u003e— Sharon C., Verified Purchase\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"scrub-dub-scalp-body-scrubber","title":"Scalp and Body Scrubber","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Scrub-Dub® scalp scrubber is a dual-sided antimicrobial tool built to physically remove dandruff, buildup, and dry scalp; not just rinse over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIf you deal with dandruff, dry scalp, seborrheic dermatitis, or an itchy scalp, the problem isn't your shampoo.
