What are some ways to relieve scalp eczema?

Scalp eczema can be a challenge. How do you get your scalp back on track?

  1. A number of years ago tar shampoo was used to treat scalp eczema. These days shea butter for a tea tree oil can help moisturize the scalp and do wonders. Hope this helps.

  2. What tends to help me is when I have scalp eczema flared not getting my hair wet and applying ointments. What I also tend to do is when it becomes less irritated I end up using head on shoulders and that seems to help to keep my eczema at ease and itchiness as well.
