fusion extension help--itchy scalp?

i got fusion hair extensions about a month ago, & they are doing really well. My only problem is that my scalp is CRAZY itchy! I have mild psoriasis on my scalp, and it seems like its gotten worse since i've gotten the extensions...i use selsun blue on occassion, but i don't like to use it too often because it is drying on my extensions. anyone have any suggestions? i hate seeing flakes in my hair all the time & constantly itching..it's to the point that i'm considering taking the extensions out for that single reason =[

    first things first, make sure it isnt lice. if it is obviously look for shampoo for it and brush it out with a comb. if i isnt, try something that will hydrate ur scalp, like head and shoulders or something with argan oil doing a coconut oil treatment on ur scalp will hydrate it, it can meke it greasy so be carful ( and itf u have lice, it is said that coconut oil can help kill them but doesnt replace the shampoo). and just dont wear extencions, it not worth it if u need to scratch ur head so often

    maybe the problem is from your extension hair. getting rid of that itchy scalp by using some expensive shampoo is also not works for me. Based on my experience, I ever tried to look for some other method on http://dryitchyscalpremedies.com/ and it really works. It can be done at home naturally.

    Head and Shoulders makes an itchy scalp relief shampoo with eucalyptus oil that helps quite a bit. You can also try mixing three tablespoons of epsom salts (available at Walmart or your local pharmacy) in with a half of a cup of shampoo and using that for relief. It's an old home remedy that worked for me!
