The As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Collection was built around a simple belief: scalp health and hair health aren't separate goals. You shouldn't have to sacrifice one to treat the other.
Developed in As I Am's US-based laboratory by Dr. Ali N. Syed — a chemist with 45 patents and a foundational voice in modern hair science — every product in this collection goes through the same rigorous in-house formulation process that defines the brand.
Treats the Cause, Not Just the Symptom
Itching and flaking can come from two different places. Dry scalp is a moisture problem — skin that isn't retaining enough hydration. Dandruff is a microbial one — an overgrowth of naturally occurring yeast that triggers irritation and shedding. Most products address one. This collection addresses both, at the same time.
Soothes Without Stripping
The formulas are sulfate-free and paraben-free, built to remove buildup and impurities without pulling away the oils your scalp and hair depend on. Cleaner scalp, softer hair — not a trade-off between the two.
Before After
Active Ingredients With a Purpose
Piroctone Olamine works directly against the fungal activity behind dandruff. Tea Tree Oil and Olive Oil bring additional antibacterial and antifungal support, while also nourishing the hair shaft. Peppermint Oil and Menthol deliver immediate relief to an aggravated scalp. Aloe Vera and Glycerin keep both scalp and strands hydrated wash after wash.
The Oil Treatment adds Salicylic Acid to clear away buildup and flaking between washes, helping the other actives absorb more effectively.
Why You'll Love It
This collection works as a complete system or by individual step — and it's built for everyone:
- Sulfate-free and paraben-free
- Gentle enough for sensitive scalps
- Safe for color-treated and chemically processed hair
The Results
Consumer testing showed what the formulas are capable of:
- +13% increase in hair moisture with the shampoo system
- +141% increase in scalp moisture with the shampoo, conditioner, and oil treatment
- +204% increase in scalp moisture with the cowash, conditioner, and oil treatment
How to Use
Cleanse with the Shampoo or Cowash, follow with the Conditioner, then finish with the Oil Treatment applied directly to the scalp. Use at least twice a week. On off days, the Oil Treatment works on its own to calm irritation without a full wash.
