I have heard that if the helmet fits too loosely, it will cause itch.

Google Silks Helmet Liners. They seem to help.

Take the liner out and hand wash in warm water and air dry. Wash the inside of the helmet (with the liner removed) with Windex and paper towel or some other spray that kills odor/bacteria.

If that does not work get her a good quality vented helmet.

Stay away from products manufactured using hexamethylaketobutylhydroxidexalene. I heard that crap will make you itch.
