Hey there,

I’ve been trying to find a shampoo that releases the itchiness of my scalp psoriasis. In the store I saw charcoal shampoo has anyone tried this for psoriasis?

Well for your problem there are plenty of shampoo online for scalp psoriasis. But I would suggest trying your GP to get the right effective product that has proven to work. There may be plenty online but finding the right one that works is a minefild. A local chemist also may help on a proven product that works but of course they will have a limited range. One lists 2% Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Treatment to Reduce Flakes Itchiness and Control so finding the right active ingredient that forms a good treatment and then you can look at the most effective product.
