Hair health starts with the scalp. Whether you feel like you have to wash your hair every day and it's still greasy, or you're plagued by dandruff and itchiness, understanding what your scalp needs to be at its best is the key to falling in love with your hair again.
Take a look at these three common scalp types to find out which one speaks to your scalp and what to look for in hair products to suit you:Sensitive scalp: Easily irritated by exposure to the sun or harsh chemicals found in shampoos and hair products. This irritation can be alleviated by opting for oatmeal or clay-based hair products. Additionally, choosing hypo-allergenic shampoos and other hair care items can help avoid exacerbating scalp sensitivity.
Dry scalp: Dandruff and scalp psoriasis are common issues for people with dry scalp. Regularly moisturising the scalp can provide significant relief without making the scalp excessively oily. Coconut and rosemary oil are both effective options, readily available at your local pharmacy. Incorporating hydrating shampoos into your hair care routine can also assist in combating dry scalp issues.
Oily scalp: This can be challenging, as it often leads to hair appearing greasy even after washing. However, there are strategies to address this issue. While oil production is essential for scalp health, traditional dry shampoos may exacerbate the problem by merely absorbing oil and sitting on the scalp, potentially causing further irritation. Instead, opt for oil-regulating products and allow them sufficient time to take effect by using a shower cap.
