As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Oil Treatment

Give a dry, flaky scalp targeted care with As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Oil Treatment, a nourishing scalp and hair oil formulated to moisturize while helping manage dandruff-related flaking and discomfort. The updated formula features Piroctone Olamine, an antifungal ingredient used to help control microorganisms associated with dandruff and support a more balanced scalp environment. A nutrient-rich blend of castor, coconut, soybean and sunflower oilsforms the moisturizing base, helping replenish lipids and soften dry hair and scalp. Olive, jojoba and safflower oilsprovide additional emollient conditioning, while tea tree and peppermint oils complement the scalp-focused formula and menthol provides a fresh, cooling sensation. The formula also contains Ceramides NP, AP and EOP, lipid components that help support the hair's protective barrier and improve the feel of dry, compromised strands. Aloe extract and phytosterols provide additional conditioning support, making this more than a traditional finishing hair oil. As I Am reports 13% increased hair moisture, while the complete Dry & Itchy Scalp Care routine has demonstrated significant improvements in scalp moisture.

How to Use + Best For

For a leave-in scalp treatment, apply As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Oil Treatment every other day or as needed and leave it in without rinsing. For a more intensive hot-oil treatment, massage the oil into the scalp and hair from roots to ends, cover with a heated wet towel or use a shower cap with gentle heat for 15–20 minutes, then shampoo thoroughly; As I Am recommends this method 1–2 times per month. The oil is especially well suited to dry, flaky scalps and dry, curly or coily hair that benefits from additional lipid-based conditioning. Based on its rich blend of plant oils, it can be particularly helpful for medium-to-high porosity and coarse hair, while fine or low-porosity hair should begin with a very small amount to avoid excess buildup. For a complete scalp-care routine, pair it with the As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Shampoo or CoWash and Conditioner.

Take Khair Tip: When using it as a leave-in, focus the oil where your scalp actually feels dry rather than coating your entire scalp—targeted application can provide moisture without leaving your roots unnecessarily oily.
