As much as we all want gorgeous and beautiful hair all the time, it's no secret that we end up with hair problems quite often. Whether it's due to genetics, lifestyle changes or environmental pollutants, there are a lot of factors at play that determine the quality of your hair.

And one of the worst things that you can end up with is a dry scalp. It leads to a constantly painful and uncomfortable feeling in your scalp and can just, in general, be a hassle to deal with. But if you're still unsure if the scalp problem you're facing is dry scalp, here are some signs that will prove it to you. Take a look.

-Your hair is rough and dull all the time. Since your roots don't get the nourishment they need, your hair ends up becoming harsh and rough. This also makes your hair more brittle and prone to breakage.

-You constantly notice white flakes in your scalp. Not all white flakes are dandruff. Sometimes this is caused when your scalp is dry and skin starts peeling off. Hence you end up with white flakes all over.

-There is a constant itch in your scalp. It's alright to feel an itch in your scalp once in a while but if you notice that it has become frustratingly normal for you to be scratching your scalp all the time then it's probably because your scalp is dry.

-Your scalp feels tight. Just like dry skin on your face and body can feel tight, dry skin on your scalp can feel tight too. And no matter what hairstyle you opt for, the tightness won't go away. This is a sign of dry scalp.

Look for these signs and consult an expert on how you can best deal with this situation. Stay tuned for more updates.
