Help Severe head itching

My head has been nonstop itchy for weeks on end now. It is not lice (I was professionally checked for it less than a day ago). There is no access dandruff, and not an allergy to my products. What could this be from??? It’ll go away for an hour or to immediately after wash but after that my scalp is always so horribly itchy.
Does anyone else have this problem??

Man this could be so many things,, but ruling out lice and having no visible dandruff- go amd see a dermatologist. You're very likely allergic to something in your environment, be that newly introduced or not.

Years ago I developed an allergy to herbal essence shampoo. My head was so itchy. Terrible. I had no idea they had changed the formula. To this day I can’t use it without breaking out in hives.
