Two Products. One Itchy Scalp. Here's the Difference.

Two Products. One Itchy Scalp. Here's the Difference.

If you've ever looked at the As I Am Dry & Itchy Scalp Care Collection and wondered why there's both an Oil Treatment and an Itch Soothing Drops, you're not alone. Both go on the scalp. Neither gets rinsed out. But they're solving two completely different problems that can change the way your whole routine works.

The Itch Soothing Drops: For When the Itch Shows Up

The Itch Soothing Drops are your between-wash response. When irritation flares up mid-week, under a protective style, or whenever your scalp decides to remind you it's there; this is what you reach for.

The dropper applicator tells you everything about its purpose: this is a precision tool. You apply it directly to the spot that's bothering you, massage it in, and leave it. No rinsing, no disruption to your style.

Formulated with Piroctone Olamine to fight the fungal activity behind dandruff, Magnolia Extract to calm irritation and reduce itching, and Kudzu Extract to soothe redness and support moisture retention — it addresses the cause of the itch, not just the sensation.

The Oil Treatment: For After Every Wash

The Oil Treatment is the finishing step of your wash routine. Where the Drops react to a problem, the Oil Treatment works to prevent one.

Applied directly to the scalp after cleansing and conditioning, it seals in moisture, gently exfoliates buildup with Salicylic Acid, and extends the antifungal protection of the system well past wash day. Tea Tree Oil and Olive Oil nourish the scalp and hair shaft while Piroctone Olamine keeps the microbial environment in check between washes; making it a crucial step for a healthy and happy scalp. 

The Results

The Oil Treatment, used as part of the complete DISC 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

The Itch Soothing Drops, in a one-month study of 71 users:

  • 95.7% reported reduced scalp itching
  • 90.1% felt soothed after application
  • 87.3% experienced relief from itch and irritation
  • 83.1% reported restored scalp comfort

Recap

On wash days, finish your routine with the Oil Treatment applied directly to the scalp. Between washes, use the Drops on any spot that flares up as needed, or daily for long-term balance.

The system works because both products fight separately. One keeps the itch from coming back. The other handles it when it does.
