What works for my folliculitis, which seems to be mild but chronic, and all over my scalp and eyebrows (no spots, just mild itching) is abstaining from all dairy products, reducing sugar and refined carbs and consuming two or three cloves of raw garlic chopped into tablet-sized pieces and drunk down with water before meals. All of these things combined gets rid of the itching within a week.
I suspect in my case, I have pre-diabetes and a high sugar diet is feeding yeast within the hair follicles. When I stick to the above mentioned regime I'm fine. When I fall off the wagon the itching comes back.
Getting into direct sunshine without sunscreen is useful too. UV kills bacteria/yeasts, etc.
