Although it can happen at any time of the year, hair, roots, scalp and the hairline are susceptible to sunburn or other types of burns from chemical hair product applications or similar.
Some hair consumers are not willing to go with traditional medical salves or ointments and may be more willing to opt for homeopathic ointments and similar remedies.
Of course it's always wise to check with your health care provider before selecting homeopathic or related natural remedies in lieu of prescribed formulas.
If you decide to pursue more natural treatments there are a wide range of options from homeopathic pellets and tablets to salves, lotions, creams and drops. Ultimately you can decide what type of delivery system works best for your current condition.
The homeopathic ointment and related types of treatments for hair, root and scalp can be utilized by all types and textures of hair as well as for men and women of all races.
These treatments may not be indicated for younger children. When in doubt ask your health care provider. Whether you're of European descent or African descent, these formulas can work for you.
Listed below are some well-documented homeopathic, herbal and related formulas for the most common types of hair, root and scalp issues.

5. Arnica
This is a well known homeopathy remedy which may be taken orally via pellets or with a salve applied to the traumatized areas such as the scalp or hairline around the face. It can help reduce swelling and is very effective in reducing red irritation following painful hair treatments.
It could be used to help reduce the pain and swelling of hair weaves pulled too tightly or braids causing the scalp to throb or be irritated, red or sore.
As a cream it can be mixed with cypress and neroli oils to help healing and applied directly to the sore areas of the scalp or along the hairline or back of the neck.
6. Lavender Oil
Many people are aware of the benefits of using 100% pure lavender essential oil to help with relaxation and sleeping.
However, they are not aware that this amazing oil, especially when it's 100% natural, can help with burns, itchy scalps, lice and even the irritation of bug bites on the scalp or around the hairline and the face.
Many people believe that consistent and daily use of lavender oil will help to slow or stop hair loss and promote faster hair growth. This has not been scientifically proven but is a common belief.
Lavender Oil For Scalp Irritations
Lavender oil is an insect repellent and will ease the discomfort of a sun burnt scalp or hairline. It will also help the roots to relax which assists in the necessary flow from the body to the roots and the scalp. On an emotional level it's good for easing sadness, nervous headaches, exhaustion and general panic.
Remember that a little bit goes a long way. Apply 1-2 drops directly to the irritated or burnt areas or mix into a soothing career oil such as jojoba, almond or coconut oil. It is safe to apply the oil directly to the effected area but if you are unsure you can also mix it.
7. Aloe Vera Gel
Not only will Aloe Vera heal the skin, it presents a cooling alternative to heavier creams and lotions. While you can always break off the leaf of a real aloe vera plant and apply the salve directly to your roots and scalp, it can be messier than if you get 100% pure aloe vera gel, preferably organic.
Aloe Vera Gel should be stored in the refrigerator, after opening, and offers an instant cooling of scalp, hairline or related burns. A little bit goes a long way and it will offer instant calming of irritated skin.
8. Peppermint Oil
This essential oil from the Labiatae family is a great antiseptic, analgesic and disinfectant. It's a cleansing and cooling oil which can treat scalp acne, dermatitis and similar. It can be used directly or mixed with a carrier oil such as jojoba, almond, sesame or coconut.
9. Tea Tree Oil
If all homeopathic pellets and creams fail and essential oils or other natural treatments don't seem to work, tea tree oil will often do the trick.
It is known as Melaleuca Alternifolia and it is an antiseptic, antiviral, antiinfectious, antifugal, bactericidal and can be used as a great insecticide. Apply it to dandruff, scalp sores, scabs or pimples and to any scalp cuts or irritations.
