185 productsScalp Care for Oily, Itchy, Flaky & Sensitive Scalps
Healthy hair starts at the scalp. Dandruff, oiliness, itching, sensitivity, and even thinning are most often scalp problems first — hair problems second. Modern scalp care treats the skin on your head the same way good skincare treats your face: cleanse with the right pH, exfoliate weekly, treat actively, and balance the microbiome.
ProHair carries the professional scalp-care lines that actually move the needle — Medavita's Cutis Pura clay scrubs and Lotion Concentrée anti-hair-loss treatments (formulated and made in Italy, used by stylists across Europe and Canada), Nioxin's complete thinning-hair systems, Joico's scalp-balancing range, and Alcove's pre-wash scalp oil. For sensitive scalps, Revlon Equave Kids hypoallergenic and L'Oréal Professionnel Sensi Balance offer fragrance-light alternatives.
Whether you're managing flakes, oily roots that won't quit, post-pregnancy shedding, or product buildup, this is where scalp routines come together.

Anti-Hair-Loss Treatments
Leave-on lotions and serums — Medavita Lotion Concentrée, Nioxin Diaboost, Bosley professional range.

Fragrance-light or fragrance-free gentle cleansers for reactive skin. Equave Kids, hypoallergenic options.
Sebum-Balancing Conditioners

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between dandruff and dry scalp?
Dandruff is fungal (Malassezia overgrowth) and produces yellowish, oily flakes plus itch; dry scalp is just dehydration and produces small, white, powdery flakes without much itch. They need different treatments — anti-fungal cleansers (Nioxin, ketoconazole-based) for dandruff, gentle moisturizing cleansers + scalp oils for dry scalp.
Why is my scalp oily but my ends are dry?
Common combination — your scalp is producing normal sebum but it isn't reaching your ends, especially with longer or curlier hair. Wash roots more frequently than ends, use sebum-balancing products at the scalp and rich masks on the lengths, and don't over-condition the roots.
Can scalp care actually slow hair loss?
Yes, for some types of loss. Telogen effluvium (post-pregnancy, stress, illness shedding) responds well to scalp circulation + nourishment. Androgenic thinning is hormonal and needs minoxidil or finasteride, but a healthy scalp environment helps any treatment work better. Medavita Lotion Concentrée and Nioxin systems are the professional starting points.
How often should I exfoliate my scalp?
Once a week for most people, twice if you have heavy buildup or oily scalp. Don't exfoliate if your scalp is broken, freshly sunburned, or in active eczema — start with a pre-wash scalp oil instead.
Is Nioxin safe for color-treated hair?
Yes — Nioxin Systems 3, 4, 5, and 6 are formulated for color-treated and chemically-treated hair specifically. Match the system to your hair density (1-2 = noticeably thin, 3-4 = light thinning, 5-6 = progressed).
I have a sensitive scalp that reacts to everything. Where do I start?
Strip the routine back. Switch to a fragrance-light or fragrance-free cleanser (Equave Kids hypoallergenic is a good base), eliminate sulfates, and reintroduce one product at a time. If reactions persist, see a dermatologist — sometimes the trigger isn't your shampoo.
Can I use scalp scrubs on curly or coily hair?
Yes — but be gentle. Apply scrub to wet scalp only, work with fingertips not nails, and don't drag through the lengths. The Alcove pre-wash scalp oil is often a better option for tighter curl patterns since it's gentler on the cuticle.
Do you ship scalp products quickly across Canada?
Yes — same-day or next-day from Quebec, free over $99.99. Most provinces see delivery within 2-5 business days.
