Why anyone would want to be without one of these scalp brushes is a real, er, head scratcher. (Amazon)
Nobody likes having a dry scalp: the itching, the scratching, the flaking, the people you're next to sidling away in fear that you've got fleas (or worse).

So far, more than 115,000 people have given it a five-star rating, saying it helps with oil control, shedding and dandruff. Curious? It's down to just $6...

"I am 60 years old, I have never in my entire life been able to do anything with my straight-on-top, curly-on-the-bottom, thinning hair," shared a reviewer. "Well, after buying every tool and styling gadget on the market, I gave this dryer brush a try. It’s a miracle; my first try, and I have a salon style from my own bathroom! It’s so full and healthy-looking and pretty, and I feel so amazing personally! It’s not at all heavy; it is noisy, but it is just an amazing thing."

"I love how this cream feels," shared one reviewer. "When you pump some into your hand, it feels thick like it's gonna end up being greasy, but it's not! The backs of my hands were getting crepey. ... After just a few applications, that is gone!"
Want to know the secret to Nicole Kidman's luscious locks? You're lookin' at it.

File this silicone brush under "things you don't think you need until you try them." Regular scalp massages are one of the best and first steps you can take if you want to stimulate hair growth.
This brush, nearly 40% off, makes it easy — just apply your shampoo or hair oil and go to town in circular motions for a minute or two. Not only will you unclog pores on your scalp and improve circulation, but the whole process feels amazing.
Thanks to Amazon, this scalp brush is down to the lowest price we've seen this year — over 45% off. (Note: There are 23 colors to choose from and prices vary.) Not only will it help get rid of the flakes, but it'll also enhance your shower time, making it more of a spa-like experience. You'll no longer be singing the blues in the shower (but do feel free to sing some show tunes).
This scalp brush is made with soft silicone "bristles" attached to its handle. It promises a deep clean, gently exfoliating your scalp without scratching it, and it works on nearly all hair textures and lengths. You can use it in the shower to apply shampoo, of course, but you can also use it on dry hair to give yourself a soothing scalp massage anytime.
Lightweight and affordable, the massager fits in the palm of your hand, making it easy to travel with. Since it comes in a ton of different colors, it's a cinch to find an option you'll love — but customers are smitten for myriad other reasons, too. "Life-changing," said one. "Can't believe I ever lived without it."
An army of fans rave about adding this scrubber to their shower routine.
"Bye-bye, flakes!" said one shopper. "My son had really bad flakes in his hair from dry scalp, poor thing. We tried all different kinds of shampoos and creams but nothing worked. I stumbled across this product and thought, why not give it a try? After one use, there were noticeably less flakes. After using it for a week, there were no more flakes."
A tip from this fan: "I don't massage more than a couple times clockwise and a couple counter-clockwise in each spot. That seems to prevent a tangling effect. I do love the massaging so much! The handle is designed exactly as one would hold the brush and you don't have to worry that the brush will slip from your grip. It also comes with a tiny rope to hang in the shower."
"Decreased my hair shedding," said a five-star reviewer. "This product is probably my favorite thing I've bought this year! I wash my hair every three days and give my scalp a good scrub in the shower with this. First, it feels amazing! Second, I've noticed a lot less hair loss in the shower over the past two months, which was the reason I bought it. I've also had a significant decrease in dry scalp."
Some shoppers think the handle could be improved.
"I use this in the shower and it’s nice!" wrote a reviewer. "I wish the handle was a little bigger to grab better. Or maybe textured where you hold it so it’s not so slick."
"I have the kind of greasy hair that is super difficult to clean out," shared another shopper. "[Now] my hair feels sooo much cleaner. And my psoriasis has been much better. The only drawback that might be better on other ones is that it slips out of my fingers. Some gentle silicone grips on the handle where your fingers go might help!"
And if hair thinning is a concern...
