Female. All my life when taking shower. Whenever i shampooing and conditioning my hair, i scratch my scout to prevent from itching. But does it damage your brain or mess up your thinking or anything?
I normally scatch my face when washing face to remove make up. But i learn that that will damage your skin. But what about the head though?
Cuz i feel like im a little dumn now. And have memory lost. I mean, short term memory. Im only 23

Obviously if you scratch hard enough, you'll damage the skin and maybe pull out some hair. As far as I know, scratching shouldn't cause any brain damage unless you are scratching way too hard. The only bad thing that scratching your scalp on a regular basis does is that it can lead to hair loss. If your scalp is itching often, I would recommend trying a dandruff shampoo. Usually, an itchy scalp is caused by dryness and the shampoo might help with that. If you want to itch, do it gently and carefully only in the area that is irritated. You can also massage your scalp. This is a common method used for shampooing. Use the palms of your fingers and massage in circles around your head. This way, you are still stimulating the blood blood flow, but aren't doing too much damage to the hair. Every once in awhile though, it is fine to scratch with your fingernails to remove dead skin, but only in moderation. For right now, stick to massaging unless you have a really bad itch. Hope this helped and message me if you have anymore questions :) [ mannequin24's advice column | Ask mannequin24 A Question ]
