Hi...can understand your concern....As per your query about itchy scalp with black particles while scraping can be due to Fungal infection and may have formed crust due to prolonged fungal infection for which the colour has been changed....I suggest you to avoid chemicals,dyes,different kinds of scented oils .Consult a dermatologist and analysis of scrapping for knowing the cause and the treatment accordingly...I hope the information helps you...Take care.
