I am in a similar place. I believe the reason I am so dry in my scalp and hair is because in addition to my face and eyes they are in abundance on my scalp and I have had terrible loss there. If they are eating the sebum and dying in the follicle then you have nothing left for your own needs.

I know this sounds bad but when I had this, I used a dog shampoo! it worked after two uses. I had to follow up with conditioners it was worth it. These critters are all around us it's all about control not elimination because you can pick them up at the gym , a movie theater or anywhere people lean their heads. They love heat so a ice water rinse helps too.
