Healthy vs unhealthy scalps

A healthy scalp is well hydrated, smooth, and free of flakes and redness. Signs of an unhealthy scalp include the presence of dandruff, redness, pain, cysts, acne, itching, hair breakage, and hair loss. If you’re experiencing signs of an unhealthy scalp, you can work to restore your hair with the regime below.

1. Maintain a proper hair washing routine

Over washing your hair can strip away the natural oils and proteins which keep your scalp healthy and provide healthy hair growth. Stick to washing your hair at most every other day – or less, depending on the quality of your hair.

And when you are washing, don’t overwork the scalp. Vigorous scrubbing can lead to the overproduction of natural oils, clogging up our follicles and obstructing hair growth.

2. Avoid harsh chemicals in hair products

Switching to a gentler shampoo and conditioner formula may be a necessary step to get your hair and scalp back on track. Opt for sulfate-free and paraben-free products that won’t strip or damage your hair over time.

3. Avoid heat styling products

Heat styling tools should be utilized at a maximum of one to two times a week. The higher temperatures can weaken and damage hair, resulting in split ends and dull, dry strands. Give your hair and scalp a break from blow-drying and styling by letting it air-dry all natural every few washes!

4. Apply SPF

UV rays penetrate deep into the dermis of your scalp, leaving you vulnerable to burning and thinning hair on the crown area. Remember to apply SPF to your scalp along with other exposed areas of the skin when you plan to be out in the sun for extended periods of time.

5. Try a hair treatment service
