Scalp pain, although often dismissed as trivial, can be a common and uncomfortable experience for individuals with short hair. While hair itself is non-sensitive, the scalp, rich in nerve endings, is susceptible to pain when these nerves become irritated or inflamed. Inflammatory scalp conditions, excessive tension in the scalp muscles, and harsh hair care practices can contribute to scalp sensitivity. Stress, poor hygiene, and extreme weather conditions can also exacerbate pain. Gentle scalp care, incorporating scalp massage, lukewarm water for washing, and soothing ingredients such as tea tree oil or chamomile, can help alleviate discomfort. Avoiding harsh chemicals in hair products and excessive tension from hairstyles can prevent further irritation. Consulting a dermatologist can assist in identifying and treating underlying scalp conditions that may be the root cause of pain.
