Shampoo cleanses your hair, but it also removes the natural oils from your skin and hair. And that while that natural protective layer comes in handy when your scalp itches. You only need a little bit of shampoo to get your hair clean.
The warmer the water, the more it dries out your skin and that doesn't do the itching any good. Taking a cold(er) shower has more advantages.
Give your skin time to recover by giving it at least a rest day in between.
That way you damage your skin as little as possible.

Leave your styling products for a while and give your scalp a rest to recover.
Scratching may give you a moment's relief, but in the end it will only make your problem worse. If you do feel the need to scratch, gently press your nail into the skin to soothe the itching. Better yet:leave your scalp alone until you are rid of the complaints.
